Abstract
This article investigates the business history of a major international manufacturing corporation, Fagor, which is also a workers’ co-operative, from its origins in the most difficult years of the Franco regime to its current success as a multinational company manufacturing the ‘white goods’ of the consumer revolution. It explores the distinctive ideological roots of this highly successful business, and the problematic evolution of its management strategies and workplace relationships within the changing Basque political and cultural environment during and after Spain's transition to democracy. It focuses on the company's adaptability and capacity for adjustment to changing circumstances, and on the issues and tensions arising from its development as a multinational corporation.
