Abstract
The economic and financial crisis has had a dramatic impact on Spain. In 2009 the country's gross domestic product (GDP) declined by almost 4 per cent. The national budget reached a deficit of 11 per cent of GDP. The unemployment rate peaked at 26 per cent in 2013. Home evictions became frequent, totalling 200,000 cases from 2006 to 2012. Even today the situation of young Spaniards remains precarious, also because of the flexibilisation of the labour market. Many have chosen to emigrate. Spain furthermore suffers from regional disparities: the Basque country, Catalonia and the regions of Madrid and Valencia are industrialised, while many peripheral parts of the country are shaped by the agricultural sector and small enterprises that overly rely on local markets. The recent economic recovery relies on the construction sector, which was critical to the pre- crisis economy and gave rise to the crisis itself. Once again it appears that private and public infrastructure is being built, not so much to fulfil people's needs but rather to absorb over-accu- mulated capital.
