Between 1760 and 1802 Spain adapted to obtaining its cotton, previously acquired in the Mediterranean, from its American empire. The project clarifies how this success was achieved by focusing on two components of the development: the supplying of the cotton from America and the creation of a cotton market within Spain. By demonstrating a successful response to economic opportunities it challenges 'black legend' views of Spanish entrepreneurial ineptitude.

1760年至1802年，西班牙适应了从美洲帝国获得棉花的做法，这些棉花以前是在地中海获得的。该项目阐明了如何通过关注发展的两个组成部分来取得这一成功：从美国供应棉花和在西班牙境内创建棉花市场。通过展示对经济机会的成功回应，它挑战了西班牙企业家无能的“黑色传奇”观点。
