Franco [PDF ebook] 
General – Diktator – Mythos

Francisco Franco (1892-1975) ruled his country’s history with his dictatorship for almost four decades. Since the beginnings of the dictatorship during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), ‘Cuadillo’ has had a controversial personality. Whilst he represents the destruction of a civil-democratic order, cruel repression and a division of society for decades, others see him as a considerate and intelligent person acting for the good of the people. The impression at hand explores General Franco’s biography in light of current research and debates surrounding his character.
