	Selma Holo Surveys the ‘Spanish Miracle’
		Nowhere is “the Spanish miracle” – as the transition from Franco’s dictatorship to full-blown democracy has come to be known – more evident than in the country’s museums, argues Selma Holo, director of USC’s Fisher Gallery and graduate Museum Studies Program, in her new book, “Beyond the Prado: Museums and Identity in Democratic Spain.”
		Holo has studied Spanish culture since college and has spoken the language since she was a little girl.
		Similarly remarkable testaments to the nation’s fine balance between memory and forgetting are MEIAC – a detention center turned art museum – and the military museums that continue to preserve memories of Franco and his victory in the Spanish civil war.

		In 1955 Spanish wealth approached the pre-war levels of 1935, leaving behind the disasters of the war and the struggle of isolation.
		Albeit the economic growth produced noticeable improvements in Spanish living standards and the development of a middle class, Spain remained less economically advanced relative to the rest of Western Europe (with the exception of Portugal, Greece and Ireland).
		At the heyday of the Miracle, 1974, Spanish income per capita peaked at 79% of the Western European average, only to be reached again 25 years later, in 1999.

	miracle \| English \| Dictionary & Translation by Babylon
		According to many religions, a miracle, derived from the old Latin word miraculum meaning 'something wonderful', is a striking interposition of divine intervention by God in the universe by which the ordinary course and operation of Nature is overruled, suspended, or modified.
		Where miracles are there certainly God is. The man, therefore, who works a miracle affords thereby clear proof that he comes with the authority of God; they are his credentials that he is God's messenger.
		He boldly says, "God bears me witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles." The credibility of miracles is established by the evidence of the senses on the part of those who are witnesses of them, and to all others by the testimony of such witnesses.

	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Spanish Miracle
		The Spanish miracle (Spanish: Desarrollo económico de España) was the name given to the Spanish economic boom between 1959 and 1973.
		The Miracle ended the period of autarchy (closed economy) and could be considered to be the response to the economic crisis of Spain after the Spanish Civil War and the challenges of World War II.
		The Spanish Civil War was also an example of total war, where the bombing of the Basque town of Guernica by the Luftwaffe foreshadowed episodes of World War II such as the bombing campaign on Britain by the Nazis and the bombing of Dresden by the Allies.

		Spanish voters, who had demonstrated in the millions in several major cities the day following the attack, apparently believed the government was too quick to blame the ETA for political reasons.
		When it became apparent that the terrorist attack was probably the work of al-Qaeda, Spanish voters reportedly blamed the Popular Party for making Spain the focus of Muslim extremists, who vowed political retaliation for the Aznar government’s support of the administration of U.S. president George W. Bush.
		Spanish government officials were cautiously optimistic about the cease-fire, the first permanent declaration in the ETA’s history.

		The Spanish Miracle was the name given to the Spanish economic recovery between 1959 and 1969.

		The recovery led to an increment of (often orderless) building in Spanish cities to accommodate the new industrial workers brought by rural exodus.

	Francisco Franco Bahamonde, Dictator of the Month, July, 2004
		During the war, in late September 1936, he became Generalísimo of the Nationalist army, with rank of lieutenant general and then on October 1, 1936, he was elected Jefe del Estado (Head of State).
		Spain was bitterly divided and economically ruined as a result of the civil war and Franco's government actively promoted this division between "victors" and "vanquished" while its incompetence did little to improve the economic situation.
		His coalition ruling single party, the Movimiento Nacional, was so heterogeneous as to barely qualify as a party at all, and certainly not an ideological monolith like the Fascio di Combattimento (Fascist Party) and the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (Nazi Party).

		Other than allowing gays to marry and granting a fictitious autonomy to the various ethnic groups, and withdrawing Spanish troops from Iraq, Zapatero has done little to destabilize an economic engine that is still the envy of Western Europe.
		Whether you liked the old Spanish cabinet or you like the new one, Al Qaeda likes the fact that it caused the old one to be defeated.
		On march 17 the terrorists, pleased with the results of the elections, wrote to a Spanish newspaper that they will suspend operations in Spain, since Spain has now abandoned the alliance with the USA (Reuters).

	Socialists should drop anti-American strategy
		To this ridiculous stereotype, reinforced after the war of 1898 and partially extant until today, the Marxist vision was added after the Bolshevik revolution of 1917, and the United States began to be described as a heartless, imperial group of multinational companies intent on the exploitation of weak nations and the plundering of workers.
		The truth is that, contrary to the opinion of the left, the rapprochement between the Americans and the Franco regime contributed decisively to the later democratization and development of Spain.
		The Spanish military forces, winners of the Civil War and mostly adherents of fascism, were influenced by the American military forces, long-time believers in democratic values, a situation that became a dress rehearsal for the eventual admission of Spain into NATO.

		In addition to miracle narratives, texts in Nahuatl that speak of or to the Virgin include sermons, dramas, hymns, hagiographical narratives associated with her different festivals, and prayers; the most common prayers are the Ave Maria and Salve Regina, which Christian Nahuas learned as part of the basic catechism.
		Miracle narratives account for only a fraction of this corpus, but are important in that they show Mary intervening directly and benevolently in the lives of (allegedly) real people.
		The ten miracle narratives in the John Carter Brown Library manuscript (for present purposes I include the two non-Marian miracles) reveal stylistic regularities indicating that by the time the manuscript was redacted (1572 or later) the tlamahuizolli was a distinctive and recognized genre.

		Spanish society under Muslim rule became increasingly complex, partly because Islamic conquest did not involve the systematic conversion of the conquered population to Islam.
		The lingering, "decline of Spain" after a long period of considerable growth of population was due in large part, ironically, to its spectacular successes in the 15th and 16th centuries that led to the centuries of the treasure fleets.
		Although the coup initially failed, the ensuing Spanish Civil War ended in 1939 with the victory of the nationalist forces led by the ruthlessly efficient General Francisco Franco and supported by Nazi Germany and fascist Italy.

		So too did the Spanish Civil War in the 1930s and the Franco dictatorship, although I must admit that my interest in Spain had subsided some time ago.
		Miracle is not too strong a term to use here in view of the breakthroughs Spain has made in record time, compared with the time it took Germany, France and even Italy to accomplish the same things.
		I have recently had the opportunity to study, first hand, the Spanish transition from dictatorship and one party rule to freedom, the democratic rotation of authority, plurality of participation in the political process and cultural openness and vibrancy.

		Religious pictures and statues are often believed to have supernatural powers, such as an ability to protect, heal, or grant some other blessing to the faithful.

		Born in Ferrol (officially known as El Ferrol del Caudillo from 1938 to 1982), Spain, on December 4, 1892, Franco's early life was marked by his father's drunkenness and womanizing which contrasted with his devout mother's overprotective devotion.

		He challenges the pessimism of prevailing assumptions about Spanish history, and its conventional separation into pre- and post-Napoleonic eras.
		Spain, Europe, and the ‘Spanish Miracle’, 1700–1900 also questions the importance of the empire for Spain’s own economy, suggesting instead that Spain evolved as part of Europe; indeed, some of the recently documented modernisation of the nineteenth century was already well under way in the eighteenth.
		In addition, the emergence of a governing élite closely tied to provincial society is placed in the context of traditional networks of patronage based upon close-knit family ties.
