Opis

This book analyzes the various modalities of economic repression during the Franco regime and highlights its importance as a deterrent to inhibit any expression of dissent. Its effectiveness is explained because it did not act in isolation, but in combination with the different coercive and social control mechanisms used by the dictatorship.
