Reviews

'Dr Brassloff's book makes one of the most valuable contributions to the analysis of the politics of religion in Spain. It is exemplary in examining how a religious institution was able to move from legitimising to delegitimising a dictatorial regime, thanks to the internal religious transformation generated by the Second Vatican Council. In this way the Church facilitated the transition to democracy in Spain. This book will be a very useful source for historians, sociologists, political scientists and all those interested in the influence of religion on politics.' - Rafael Diaz Salazar, Professor of Sociology, Universidad Complutense, Madrid
