«La Transición contada a nuestros padres» is the essay by Juan Carlos Monedero, published by Los Libros de la Catarata in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish).
The author starts from uncomfortable questions about the quality of current Spanish democracy and argues that the official narrative of the Transition hides the most valuable aspects of that process and exalts the banal. Monedero connects that lack of an alternative account with the emergence of the 15-M movement and maintains that, without a demanding citizenry and a new narrative that returns protagonism to the people, any attempt at a second transition will repeat the same dead ends.
Published in 2013, it is the second revised and expanded edition and corresponds to number 361 of the Mayor collection.
Recommended for readers interested in the recent political history of Spain, criticism of the Transition, and debates on democratic quality.
