Francisco Franco ruled Spain for 36 years. The foundation of this long reign was a complex system of political institutions. This book demonstrates how these mechanisms functioned: the state apparatus, the army, the party, the Catholic Church, and repressive structures. All of them served a dual role: maintaining a balance between elite groups while simultaneously ensuring the loyalty of the population.

The system was not rigid and constantly changed, responding to new circumstances. These transformations not only allowed the regime to survive for more than three decades but also facilitated a smooth transition of power after Franco's death.

The book is intended for both specialists and the general reader interested in 20th-century history.
