'''Alfonso Guerra González''' (born 31 May 1940) is a [[Spain|Spanish]] politician. A leading member of the [[Spanish Socialist Workers' Party]] (PSOE), he served as vice president of the government (''vicepresidente del Gobierno'', i.e., equivalent to deputy [[Prime Minister of Spain|prime minister]]) of Spain from 1982 to 1991, under the premiership of [[Felipe González]]. He represented [[Sevilla (Spanish Congress Electoral District)|Seville province]] in the [[Congress of Deputies (Spain)|Congress of Deputies]] from 1977 to 2015, and was the longest-serving deputy at the time of his departure.
 
In 1988, Guerra received an [[honorary degree]] from the [[Universidad Nacional Federico Villarreal]] in [[Lima]], [[Peru]], and he was awarded the ''Medaglia D'oro'' in 1984 by the [[Sapienza University of Rome]]. Guerra was an extremely controversial politician, noted for his acid discourse against his opponents -, which was criticised as [[demagogy]] by his political adversaries. He was forced to quit his position as vice-president after a financial scandal involving his brother Juan Guerra.<ref>{{cite web|author=Axel Tschentscher|url=http://www.servat.unibe.ch/icl/sp__indx.html |title=Spain Index|publisher=ICL |accessdateaccess-date=7 July 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1990/09/17/world/spain-s-leader-feels-the-heat-from-scandal.html|title=Spain's Leader Feels the Heat From Scandal|newspaper=The New York Times|date=17 September 1990|accessdateaccess-date=7 July 2013}}</ref><ref name="paul1oct">{{cite news|last=Heywood|first=Paul|title=Sleaze in Spain|url=http://www.accessmylibrary.com/article-1G1-17784355/sleaze-spain-sleaze-politics.html|accessdateaccess-date=7 July 2013|work=Parliamentary Affairs|date=1 October 1995}}</ref>
