On what ideological structures and cultural discourses has the political system in Spain been based since the Transition? Is it possible to construct a collective history open not only to what happened, but also to what could have happened? The 2008 crisis shattered the inherited common imaginary in our country and opened a crisis of expectations that was also a window of opportunity.  

From the modernizing euphoria of '92 to the uncertainties of the pandemic, passing through the emergence of 15-M, the municipalist convergences, Podemos and the reactionary wave, Vicente Rubio-Pueyo analyzes in this book how the main political moments and movements of the last forty years have shaped the political culture of Spanish democracy and our ways of understanding, living and practicing it.  

A country between two times It invites us to a collective learning process from the multiple crises that our society has faced in recent years, to bring us back to the present with a hopeful outlook. Because what else can explain the violence of the current reactionary wave, if not the fear of freedom and the social progress achieved in the last decade?
