Abstract
Discusses relations between Spain and Israel between 1948-56. States that Franco attempted to initiate diplomatic relations with Israel in order to prove that Spain was not antisemitic and racist like Germany, although he had been an ally of the Nazis during World War II. Ch. 2 (pp. 76-99) relates the reluctance of Israel to establish diplomatic relations with Spain because of Franco's past sympathies. Memories of the Inquisition did not play a part in Israeli policy. Relations were finally established in 1986.
