The authors demonstrate how the family has been an active agent of social transformation, adapting to the country's political, economic, and cultural changes. Through a multidisciplinary approach, the work offers a renewed vision of the role of the family in the contemporary history of Spain, combining academic rigor with a reading accessible to anyone interested in sociology, history, or family studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book examines the trajectory of the Spanish family from the beginning of the 20th century to the end of the century, a period marked by profound transformations: the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera, the Second Republic, the Civil War, Francoism, the Transition, and the consolidation of democracy. Contrary to the common perception of the family as a rigid and immutable structure, the authors argue that it has been a driver of social change. They analyze how family dynamics have adapted to new labor, educational, and gender realities, and how, in turn, they have influenced the configuration of social policies and the daily lives of Spaniards. The work relies on demographic data, sociological studies, and historical testimonies to offer a detailed portrait of this evolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe family as an agent of social change, countering the traditional view of it as a passive institution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEvolution of gender roles and intra-family relationships in 20th-century Spain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eImpact of political regimes (dictatorship, republic, Francoism, and democracy) on family structure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTransformation of family models: from the extended family to the nuclear family and new forms of cohabitation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between family, education, work, and social policies in the Spanish context.\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 students and professionals in sociology, history, social work, political science, and gender studies.
