- This book is the culmination of six years of doctoral and postdoctoral research on dictatorship and fascist studies. Funded by University of Navarre and the Government of Navarre, it draws on over fourteen public and private archives, including previously unexplored personal collections. This book is the first to analyse a key institution to the history of Franco’s regime and argues that through the General Secretariat, Franco transformed a radical fascist party into a conduit between state and society, proving the party’s importance to the regime cannot be dismissed simply as a failed attempt to instate a fascist dictatorship in Spain.

- English abstract
- Spanish. This monograph contributes to the study of fascism and the radical right. It analyses a key institution of Franco’s regime, which was in charge of the single party, and which has been overlooked by previous research. This omission has led historians to overemphasise FET’s failure and underplay its usefulness to the regime. This monograph demonstrates that, by establishing the General Secretariat, Franco transformed a radical fascist party into a conduit between state and society. It shows that the party’s importance to the regime cannot be dismissed simply as a failed attempt to instate a fascist dictatorship in Spain.
