Stabilization Plan

Its main goal was the economic liberalization of the Spanish markets, marking a turning point from the previous policies oriented towards achieving autarky.

The implementation of the plan led to mass migration movements (internal migrations but also abroad), with the population and the economic activity concentrating in the most dynamic areas, hollowing the rest of the country.

This decrease in production also led to lower consumption and wage freezes.

Following the recession of the Stabilization Plan, there was an economic boom in Spain in the 1960s and early 1970s.
