    El Estado y el desarrollo de la energƭa nuclear en EspaƱa, c. 1950-1985
    (AsociaciĆ³n EspaƱola de Historia EconĆ³mica (AEHE), 2014) Torre Campo, Joseba de la; Rubio Varas, MarĆ­a del Mar; EconomĆ­a; Ekonomia
    Tres dĆ©cadas despuĆ©s de la decisiĆ³n gubernamental de paralizar y replantear el programa atĆ³mico espaƱol que se habĆ­a diseƱado en los aƱos del desarrollismo, la controversia permanece abierta. Pese a su relevancia, la historiografĆ­a econĆ³mica de la energĆ­a nuclear estĆ” tan sĆ³lo en sus inicios. Este trabajo analiza el papel que el Estado jugĆ³ para conseguir que uno de los paĆ­ses mĆ”s pobres de Europa occidental entrara en el exclusivo club de paĆ­ses productores de esa energĆ­a. Proponemos una nueva periodizaciĆ³n del avance de la energĆ­a nuclear en EspaƱa basada en la evoluciĆ³n polĆ­ticoā€econĆ³mica del sector que va mĆ”s allĆ” de los estadios tecnolĆ³gicos que se describen en la literatura.

    Nuclear power for a dictatorship: state and business involvement in the Spanish atomic program 1950-1985
    (SAGE, 2016) Rubio Varas, MarĆ­a del Mar; Torre Campo, Joseba de la; EconomĆ­a; Ekonomia
    Spain was the first developing country to exploit a nuclear power plant commercially. By the early 1970s Spain had become the major nuclear client of the USA, the worldā€™s largest reactor exporter. Despite its importance, historians are just beginning to revisit and establish the sequence of the events that make up Spainā€™s nuclear history. This article analyses the role played by the state in enabling one of Western Europeā€™s poorest countries to join the exclusive nuclear power club. In a departure from the technological approach used in previous literature, the history of Spainā€™s progress in the nuclear power field is retraced against the background of its political and economic evolution.
