Industry: Planning, Regional Policy, Wages, Unions

Chapter 4 in The Spanish Economy, 1959–1976, 1977, pp 49-82 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract After the Civil War the Spanish economy was subject to an extensive network of government controls which were not, however, subject to any overriding economic plan.1 Following the Stabilisation Plan and subsequent related measures greater reliance was to be placed on market forces. It was moreover decided that economic growth should be stimulated and guided by the publication of a government plan on economic development. The development plans, of which there have so far been three (1964–7, 1968–71,2 1972–5), have been the subject of intense debate within Spain throughout the decade, partly perhaps because economics was a field in which comparative freedom of debate was possible and political views and criticisms of the status quo were voiced in relation to planning in a way which would not have been possible in a more overtly political context.
