It consists of analyzing the political Spanish transition taking as reference what happened in Portugal in 1974, where it took place a revolution followed by a constituent classic process. In Spain in 1975, several internal and external factors, determined that a model of social continuity and a political change with Franco’s regime was imposed. In that way, the civil war take place as a point of break by the past that, it also supposes the introduction of an idea of modernity that is in the base of the social reality, and in some political measure, with which Spain has entered the 21st Century.
