Abstract During the mid 1920s, the Spanish Government, prompted by the Rockefeller Foundation, began for the first time to support fundamental research in physics. The negotiations leading to this outcome are instructive, in reflecting key differences between the Foundation's vision and the practices of scientists accustomed to a `culture of scarcity'. This paper shows how the Foundation and the Dictator of Spain, Miguel Primo de Rivera, tested the limits of `civil discourse', and reached a resolution.
