The Renewal of the Corporate Elite in Spain (1920–2020)
This article examines the renewal of Spain's corporate elite between 1920 and 2020 by combining Social Network Analysis with prosopography. Using interlocking directorate data for the two hundred largest Spanish firms, aggregated into three periods (1920–1950, 1960–1980, and 1990–2020), the study identifies the most structurally central directors and reconstructs their social origins, education, and career trajectories. The findings reveal that w…
Beyond quotas: Women on board of the largest Spanish companies (1950-2020)
The Spanish business elite has historically been male-dominated, with women having minimal participation from the Francoist dictatorship through the democratic transition and early democratic regime. However, since the early 21st century, female representation has shown positive growth, reaching a relative share of 21% by 2020. Some authors interpret this increase as a sign of democratization within the corporate network. Within this framework, t…
Regulatory capture in the first Spanish Nuclear Program (c.1951-64)
The commercial use of nuclear electricity represented an economic opportunity that adopted different national varieties. In Spain, the change from an “autarchic” to a “liberal” model of nuclear management consolidated the old interests of the national electric oligopoly. The objective of this article is to explain this process through a mesoeconomic perspective (inter-institutional dialectic). The main conclusion reached is that, in the face of a…
Goodbye to a Historical Exclusion? The Journey of the Female Corporate Elite over a Century in Spain (1917–2017)
Recently, women’s presence on top boards of directors has significantly increased, challenging the long standing of male-led corporate elites. In light of the still-developing literature, this article provides a century-long examination of women’s entry into the Spanish corporate elite, offering several original contributions. In addition to its pioneering input into the country’s historiography, the work uses a holistic model to introduce a comp…
Women entrepreneurs and family networks in Andalusia (Spain) during the second industrial revolution
This article studies the relationship between gender and entrepreneurship in Andalusia, a region in the south of Spain, between 1886 and 1959. The aim of the text is to answer the question: Were women active in entrepreneurship, or merely pieces in the economic strategies of the males who governed their families? To do this, a database built from the commercial registers containing more than 8,000 companies is used. The results obtained, by way o…
La articulación del espacio económico Cartagena-Mompox-Honda. Redes y circuitos comerciales en el virreinato de la Nueva Granada
El objetivo de este artículo es mostrar la articulación del mercado interno del virreinato de Nueva Granada en la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII, frente al discurso tradicional que identifica los territorios coloniales con la economía de extracción vinculada a los mercados globales. Para ello, se han utilizado diversas fuentes fiscales generadas por la Administración española de la época, incluyendo almojarifazgos, alcabalas y otros impuestos, y s…
Business schools and the Spanish business elite since the mid-twentieth century
Literature has emphasized the key role of business schools in spreading US management in Europe after the Second World War but has not found how to quantify its impact on the business systems. With such purpose, this article examines the relations between the pioneer Spanish business schools and the national corporate elite. By combining an institutional approach and social networks analysis, it shows the incidence of business schools on the boar…
La red corporativa española en el largo plazo. Evidencia de una economía de mercado influenciada por el Estado
En las últimas décadas se ha popularizado la literatura sobre variedades de capitalismo, que estudia comparativamente las distintas formas en las que cada país organiza su economía. Los especialistas han distinguido inicialmente dos modelos puros y antagónicos: las economías liberales de mercado (LME), y las economías coordinadas de mercado (CME). Posteriormente, se han añadido nuevas categorías, como las economías de mercado influenciadas por el…
Economic and Social Power in Spain: Corporate networks of banks, utilities and other large companies (1917–2009)
The evolution trend of the Spanish network has not differed essentially from the path of other Western European corporate networks, but the configuration and factors that explain it have a specific pattern in accordance with their economic and social characteristics. The exchange of directors among the largest banks and utilities in Spain was one of the instruments used to consolidate its hegemonic position and to limit competition in other secto…
