Abstract

Town-planning has become a very serious source of political corruption in Spain as shown by the countless scandals of these years. These cases have been caused by the confluence of three major factors which are analysed in this chapter: the singularities of the Spanish town-planning model, the defectiva working of controls upon municipalities, and the extraordinary growth of housing construction during the last ten years.
