«Spain is not different» is the historical essay by Nigel Townson, published by Espasa in paperback (296 pages, in Spanish).
The book argues that the history of Spain between 1898 and 2000 was not a European exception: the myth of Spanish difference, symbolised by the slogan 'Spain is different', conceals a process of modernisation comparable to that of neighbouring countries. It covers the colonial disaster of 1898, the collapse of the Second Republic, the civil war, the dictatorship and the transition.
The work bears the subtitle «La historia de un país europeo (1898-2000)» and falls within the categories of European history and social and cultural history.
It will be of interest to readers of contemporary history and to those seeking to place the Spanish past within the European framework.
