Description
The purpose of this Master's Thesis is to show that King
Juan Carlos was primarily responsible for the democratic
political changes which occurred in Spain after the death
of Franco. Only Juan Carlos, as Head of State, could
peacefully transform the Franquist political structure.
It was his ability to do so while maintaining control of the
military that allowed Spain to have its first free election
in 41 yrears.
