The authors, David Fernández and José María Olmo, reconstruct an economic empire that spanned tax havens around the world, from Panama to Switzerland and the countries of the Persian Gulf. Beyond the chronicle of a fortune, the work portrays the atmosphere of corruption that permeated the Spanish elites for decades, offering the reader an uncomfortable yet rigorous portrait of an era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKing Corp. follows the money trail, applying classic investigative journalism techniques to unveil the mechanisms of a system of financial opacity. The work is not limited to listing accounts and transactions, but delves into the psychology of power and impunity. Through a narrative that combines precise data with the recreation of the social and political context, the book describes how business deals were forged under the protection of the monarchical institution and how a select group of businessmen and politicians benefited from their proximity to the monarch. It is, in essence, a bestiary of the elites who accumulated wealth and power in the shadow of the Crown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003ePolitical and financial corruption in contemporary Spain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eTax haven structures and money laundering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eThe figure of King Juan Carlos I and his economic legacy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003ePower relations between the monarchy, politics, and business.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eInvestigative journalism applied to Spain's recent history.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in the political and social history of Spain, investigative journalism, and the analysis of institutional corruption.
