Spain, the EEC and NATO (1984) examines the causes and consequences of the paradoxical situation whereby NATO member states welcomed a newly-democratised Spain into their ranks in 1982, with many Spanish citizens being firm opponents to Spain’s participation in NATO defences; while Spain’s attempt to join the European Community enjoyed widespread public and political support in Spain, but aroused serious resistance within the EEC, particularly by France.
