Abstract
Monarchy and Democracy in Spain Two monarchies were formed at the end of the twentieth century and both incorporated the whole process of parliamentarisation that evolved since the nineteenth century and allowed them to be compatible with democracy; are Spain and Sweden, whose 1975 Instrument of Government served as a model for the Spanish constituents. So the monarchy that was designed in the 1978 Constitution was not the product of Francoism, but of Spanish and Western constitutional evolution and history, just as the social state of law that arose with this monarchy was not. It was certainly not obligatory to establish a democratic monarchy, but it was not contradicted by democracy itself, as many European countries with a long constitutional tradition showed. This certainty served the great parties that had historically defended the republic or bypassed the forms of government, to accept the constitutional design within the framework of a democratic monarchy.
