This research area includes three activities: studying the biographies of certain Spanish men (some well-known, others less so) who played a significant role in the establishment of networks between Europe and America in the cultural, confessional, economic and financial spheres; analysing the influence of the European integration model on similar processes which have taken and are still taking place in the Southern Cone (MERCOSUR and the Pacific Alliance), with a special emphasis on human rights, international cooperation and market integration processes, as well as on the role played by Spain; analysing the influence of the European integration model in Central America (SICA), with a special emphasis on human rights and on political and economic cooperation, as well as on the role played by Spain.
Spaniards and Europeanism in transatlantic networks (1920-1970)
The lives and ideologies of prominent Spanish men such as Salvador de Madariaga (Galicia), Enric Adroher Pascual “Gironella” (Catalonia), Francisco de Luis (Asturias), Joaquín Ruiz-Giménez (Madrid) or Manuel Varela Parache (Madrid) were significantly related to both Europe and America and offer relevant data about the creation of transatlantic networks and the influence of liberalism, socialism and Christian democracy on the European integration process.
