The Enduring Legacy of Franco | Spain's Forgotten Dictatorship Ep. 4 | Documentary

Franco's foreign policy successes opened up new perspectives in Spain in the mid-1950s, which brought the country forward again after a long period of stagnation.
The renewed legitimization of Franco's rule led to dwindling resistance inside and outside Spain, while the dictator consolidated his position. However, with new international friendships came fresh influences into the country and Spain began to change.
These changes presented the regime and Franco with new challenges: How long could Franco hold on to power? And can Prince Juan Carlos give the dictatorship a promising future? Our documentary series embarks on a journey into the past to shed light on the four decades of General Franco's rule.
Beyond the usual clichés about the Spanish Civil War and Franco's seemingly clever leadership, the documentary provides a more nuanced insight. The research results of the last ten years shed new light on Spain's heritage and the regime of General Franco.

Fantastic documentary. Please make it available in Spanish as we need the young generations to understand the history of Spain and the dangers this intolerant facials. We sadly are still living with the hangover of these sad years. We can see this legacy still present right here, in some of the comments left in this chat.

[@brunodallari7602]

Excellent documentary, thanks for posting it!

[@christianhume7618]

What an excellent documentary series! I learnt so much! Many, many thanks for this!

[@VladDeFietser]

About 20 years ago I worked with a guy, Juan, whose parents had come from Spain to work in Rotterdam. He had inherited from them an intense hatred for Franco, even though the Caudillo had been dead for a quarter of a century by then.

This channel is excellent, thanks

[@mohammedsaysrashid3587]

[@Humanfacehumanityfirst]

Carrero Blanco, Spain's first astronaut.

[@katherinecollins4685]

Very informative

[@Mj-fx9no]

Amazing series you should consider doing one about the estado Novo régime in Portugal

[@LarzGustafsson]

Far too many commercials. Highly irritating!

[@berndbarthel6885]

The point of view of Francos enemies only ...Falange, FuerzaNova,FNFF, AUN and others are ignored

[@distantthunder12ck55]

True, very bias. But that is he modern western world for you. People seem to forget the tens of millions being killed in the USSR during the 1920s and 30s...

[@PierrePages1]

That doesnt make it any less true.

[@jukeboxjuice-li8fb]

17 tvs no way!

[@themsmloveswar3985]

Spain could have become Yugoslavia. And we know how Yugoslavia ended up.

[@syedadeelhussain2691]

Spain's economy under Gen Franco was doing very well - that is a fully qualified statement based on facts.

[@apizone1]

NOPE.. its was a MESS.. the USA & Europe did manage to force some Free Market policies .. So the could convert it to a democracy when the criminal died..

[@frankvanhooft3927]

Can you give some facts? I seem to remember Spain being an economic backwater in the early 1970’s

[@NmpK24]

Yeah it was doing so well in the 60s over a million left to work abroad.

[@user-wj6dt5bq3w]

@@NmpK24It was doing better than it was in the 50s. Spain wasn't on the same economic level as France and Germany in 1900 long before Franco took power so its not all his fault.

[@michaelahern6821]

Adds everywhere here...every couple of minutes.. unwatchable... thumbs down..

[@chiuyinchan1234]

obviously its KZbin's decision but not the video posters. Better get your thoughts straight man.

[@user-ue6cj9ot6s]

Franco we were there in 1969 no crime economy doing well no problem better than we've got now
