Is there a Disjunction between the Political Rhetoric that Divides Spain in Two Distinctive Political Ideologies (Left vs. Right) and the actual Response on the Ground?

Nazism and fascism have been a latent problem within Europe since the Second War World. The gap between Left and Right Wing political parties has increased in the last few years. Many politicians in their determination to resolve the economic crisis have became more ‘extreme’ in their ideas and attitudes. Greece is surely the best example but is not by far an isolated case. This thesis focuses mainly on Spain, which as a consequence of its historical factors (civil war, 1936- 1939; fascist dictatorship, 1939-1975; transition, 1975-1981; democracy, 1981 until today) strong confrontations among politicians from different ‘sides’ have become a common scene. Many are the descendants of those in power during the dictatorship. From this confrontation arises my interest on the question, Is there a Disjunction between the Political Rhetoric that Divides Spain in Two Distinctive Political Ideologies (Left vs. Right) and the actual Response on the Ground?
