Abstract
French-Spanish relations, which had made considerable progress since the end of the Fifties, were affected by the political and economic crisis of the Seventies. The process of regime change in Spain caused notorious confrontations between the two countries, mainly focused on the fight against the terrorist organization ETA and the Spain's future membership in the Common Market. However, bilateral economic relations evolved in a satisfactory way despite both the Spanish political and the worldwide energy crisis, providing growing numbers in trade, investment plans and scientifictechnical cooperation. The aim of this paper is to explore such political disconnections and economic connections, from a set of printed sources and archival records, mostly French, recently opened to researchers.
