Después de la dictadura franquista, las derechas españolas entraron en una profunda crisis. No se trataba sólo del éxito de la transición a la democracia, con un apoyo residual a la extrema derecha y uno minoritario al reformismo franquista. Se trataba también del descrédito de una cultura asociada durante casi cuatro décadas al autoritarismo, a la represión y al ideario nacional-católico. Desde finales de los años 80 las varias derechas, en particular las asociadas al nuevo conservadurismo liberal, iniciaron su recuperación política y cultural en un contexto internacional favorable. El objetivo era la construcción de un proyecto cultural que compitiera con la presunta hegemonía de la izquierda y pusiera las bases en la sociedad civil del triunfo político del Partido Popular. Para ello ha podido contar con la colaboración de un significativo número de intelectuales procedentes de la izquierda, en cuya evolución ha sido decisiva la cuestión nacional, sin duda la clave ideológica de todo el edificio conservador.
After the end of Francoʼs dictatorship, the Spanish right-wing movements entered into a deep crisis. It was not just the success of the transition to democracy, with residual support for the extreme right and a minority support for Franco-flavoured reforms. It was also that a culture associated for nearly four decades with authoritarianism, repression and national-Catholicism had lost its credibility. As of the end of the eighties, several right-wing splinter groups, in particular those associated to new liberal conservatism, initiated their political and cultural recovery in a favourable international context. Their aim was to construct a cultural project that could compete with what was seen as a left-wing hegemony, to prepare the ground for the political triumph of the Peopleʼs Party in civil society. This was done with the help of a significant number of intellectuals coming from left-wing backgrounds, for whom the issue of a single Spain was decisive. This issue was a key to the building of the conservative ideological edifice.
