Spain’s Enduring Corruption: A Culture of Impunity

This video explores how corruption in Spain is not a recent phenomenon but a deeply rooted historical system. Far from being isolated scandals, corruption costs the country an estimated 90 billion euros annually, fueling economic inequality and sustaining a vast underground economy. The narrative traces this culture of impunity back to the 19th-century era of warlords (caciquismo) and the violent repression of labor movements (pistolerismo), showing how these practices became entrenched under Franco’s dictatorship and carried over into Spain’s democratic era. The video also highlights the harsh consequences for truth-tellers: journalists face threats and violence, while whistleblowers — such as those involved in the Gürtel case — are systematically ruined instead of protected. The result is a chilling message that corruption is defended by power, and exposing it comes at a personal cost. By uncovering this history, the video reveals how corruption in Spain operates not as an exception but as an enduring system of impunity that continues to shape society today. *Disclaimer on AI Production: While this video is based on a human-edited script, the visual and narrative elements were generated by an AI.
