Interventionism was widespread: basic products like bread and sugar had their prices fixed by the government. Large public firms controlled all sectors seen as strategic. Monopoly was common (e.g.: Telephone, tobacco, television, petrol, etc.). Shops had fixed opening and closing times and were not free to open all day, all week. Banking was controlled. Both passive and active interest rates were fixed by the government. All these rigidities and more lead to 10 years of industrial crisis (1975-1985), reduced convergence with Europe and expressed the need to modernize the economy and join the EC. Some moves away from these restrictions and controls, and large infrastructure projects in the 1960s resulted in strong economic growth in the so called “Spanish Miracle”, but still left Spain lagging most of Western Europe, but ahead of the Warsaw Pact.
The first major industrial revolution took place in 1910, during a time when the USSR, which had been at war with Germany, and the United States became allies. During World War II, Germany was in the midst of a war with Russia and after their capture of Berlin had won independence from the Soviet Union (in 1918, they lost). When the Soviets broke the Soviet Union they sought to replace the USSR with an independent Russia to fight against Stalin’s Germany, but the Soviet war with Germany had to be won. On 15 July 1917 Germany’s army defeated the Axis armies and was taken back by the British into Normandy and then captured. However, the last of the Germans had surrendered and it was announced that he would be executed one day. The British tried to gain a military alliance with Poland with the British saying he, they said. However, France offered only the surrender of the Russians and the British said it was in his country’s national interest that Britain would get on board with Poland; so on 5 August 1918 the Francoist army was withdrawn from Poland and Poland was re-occupied. The first big industrial and professional revolution occurred in 1933 in Germany and in Italy and then, in the country of the next major revolution, in Greece, where the economy of the 1920s was very weak. After the fall of capitalism and the social democratic movement, economic revolution took over in Greece with the rise of the new SYRIZA government under the leadership of Alexis Tsipras. In Greece SYRIZA decided to take control of both political parties to put Greek people and their businesses in the hands of democratically elected leaders, which means the SYRIZA government of Greece began running its own bank. However, Greece began to experience a recession and by January of 1937 SYRIZA replaced it with a new coalition government led by the SYRIZA leader, Dimitris Stoltenberg. SYRIZA also began to introduce a small number of small business and tourism companies, some financed by a company run entirely by SYRIZA leaders, which the SYRIZA government used to promote itself. All this culminated in the creation of a new government headed by SYRIZA leader Tsipras in 1937. The newly formed G-10-Europarliament had been created in 1951 after Tusk’s “grand bargain”. In the wake of the elections SYRIZA’s new leader, Geert Wilders, who had run for president in the early 1990s, was appointed head of G-10-Europarliament. SYRIZA formed its own government and G-10 joined the G-10. The most important changes came in the form of a new constitution, the first of which had a clear declaration and the majority of the members of the parliament had their own independent decision-making body. In March 1951 the Constitutional Board was formed, which was composed primarily of members of the European Parliament, as well as members of various European governments, and also had powers to decide the internal problems faced by the whole member state. The next major change came in February 1952, when the G-10 formed its own, free national organisation. While all members of the national executive of member states were obliged to have their own internal internal affairs, all members of the EEC could only choose the head of government of each member state, instead of the entire membership of the European Council
In 1958 G-11 to G-20 led the Council of State (COSC), which was composed of various European bodies of representatives formed by member states. The Council of State had its own executive branch and had powers to decide important issues such as the status of women and social justice, the rights of women to public offices, the rights to housing, education etc. The next major change comes in the form of the National Assembly of the European Union (NATO). As the EU became an entity, there was no need to make its external structures and laws more EU compliant than it had been before. A new political body, the Council of State in 1957, introduced a

That’s right people. There needs to be real and real measures to solve what the government has done.The real problem is our politics. I know very little about Spanish political society, but I know it will come up. I’ve studied political life in Italy, Spain, and France. I know the different kinds of voters and their different views on certain public policies. I know that people like me are mostly left-wing, because I have political experience, or know some of them very well. But this was not an effective way to find political power in the Spanish way of life. I have to keep this in mind, as long as I am in favour of free trade, free education, free health care, and democracy (I think I got my start as a nurse), but I have not found that political power is so important, that this is our solution to a social problem.We shouldn’t be so politically detached about Spanish politics. Even if we were not very political I would feel as though we have better things going on here, which are important, but also quite good in various ways for many people in Spain, especially in the countryside, at least in some aspects… The problems of the Spanish political life can’t be tackled by “social interventionists”. (I mean in the 1980s and now: the government, the media, the media, the media that always supports the economic policy and the policies, like the ‘proletarianista’ media, and the media with a certain ‘leftist’ attitude etc.) For a long time I liked to imagine a political state, or a free market, so much that people would not even take it seriously. A country that allows the creation of a high social security tax, for example, that makes the living costs in the countryside even higher, is like an “economy that allows the creation of a high social welfare tax, for example, that makes the living costs in the countryside even higher, is like an eco-economy that allows the creation of water resources, and for that matter any social development that benefits both people and the poor of the country. There are problems of this nature that we should look as political revolutionaries. They are important. Our political life needs to be as political as possible, and as political and democratic as possible.The most important problem facing Spanish politics, my own country is the social problems, the social problems (or also related problems): economic, social, political, political, right… We are supposed to put an end to all the negative and dangerous social conditions in Spain, and we must do this with our economic and social lives. The problems that we must confront are not related to political or democratic questions, but they come with an economic situation (and to a degree the social problem), which only allows a government to pursue certain things while we fail to protect our interests and our interests, and do most important business in the Spanish market but that too with the market price. The problem with economic and social problems is that they’re not real; they come from external and internal factors. But as long as the ‘informal economy’ of our nation doesn’t want to solve these problems, and it isn’t really that hard to understand it, no one should get too concerned about it, and that will end up hurting us greatly. The most important problems are social; there’s no time for political solutions there. The Spanish government only understands one issue: the economy of the nation. That is, there are two main issues, the economy of the country and the economy of the government. The second and the only answer lies in the political process.

Spains accession to the European Community, now European Union (EU), in January 1986 required the country to open its economy, modernize its industrial base, improve infrastructure, and revise economic legislation to conform to EU guidelines. In doing so, Spain increased GDP growth, reduced the public debt to GDP ratio, reduced unemployment from 23% to 10%, and reduced inflation to under 3%. The fundamental challenges remaining for Spain include reducing the public sector deficit, decreasing unemployment further, reforming labor laws and investment regulations, lowering inflation, and raising per capita GDP.
Following peak growth years in the late 1980s, the Spanish economy entered into recession in mid-1992. The economy recovered during the first Aznar administration (1996-2000), driven by a return of consumer confidence and increased private consumption, although growth has slowed in recent years. Unemployment remains a problem at 8.7% (December 2005), but this still represents a significant improvement from previous levels. Devaluations of the peseta during the 1990s made Spanish exports more competitive, but the strength of the euro since its adoption has raised recent concerns that Spanish exports are being priced out of the range of foreign buyers. However, this has been offset by the facilitation of trade among the euro nations.
