Download or read book The Revolution and the Civil War in Spain written by Pierre Broué and published by MIT Press (MA). This book was released on 1972 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in France in 1961 as La Revolution et la guerre d'Espagne,this book explains the major issues of the Spanish Civil War in a remarkably clear and comprehensive fashion. The authors focus on the internal affairs of the Republic and the Anarchist collective experiments in particular. For further description, the book is best served by its critics: "The Broue-Temime work is the best general interpretation available concerning both the revolution of 1936 and the war. It is especially valuable for analysis of the CNT, the POUM, and the anarchists in both the industrial and rural areas of Catalonia. It contains rich chapters on the first days of the war in the large cities and on the May, 1937, struggle in the streets of Barcelona." —Gabriel Jackson, Hispanic American Historical Review "This, by contrast (with the work of Hugh Thomas), is what gives weight to the fine works of Pierre Broue: the effort by which he constructs a Spanish war where events, parties, and man, the motives that guided them, the difficulties they encountered, their feelings, debates, ideas, and sacrifices are arranged and told in order to make them comprehensible." —Jean-Pierre Peter, Annales: Economies, Societes, Civilisations "Broue has prepared the first half [of the book], dealing with the Spanish background, the revolution, and the first year of the war... [He] gives a particularly good treatment of the origins of the Spanish Communist party. "In the second half of this composite work, Temime has presented a clear, concise, and perceptive account of the military events in the last two years of the war and of the construction of Franco's authoritarian state." —Stanley G. Payne, Journal of Modern History

Download or read book Transition in Spain written by Víctor Alba and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1978-01-01 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the death of Ferdinand VII (Spain's last absolute monarch) in 1833 and that of Francisco Franco (Spain's last dictator) in 1975, Spain had 127 governments. Eighteen of these governments were during the 39-year rule of Franco. This total 142-year period was witness to dethroned mon-archs, exiled regents, assassinations, and civil wars. To understand the inevitability of Spain's tumultuous and politically unstable past, historical events and conditions must be studied. To understand the Franco regime, the origins, economic conditions, and political and social circumstances must be known. And to understand and possibly predict the future of this country, the forces that are currently working in front of and behind the scenes must be explored. This Alba does. He provides the background and answers the questions of the past, present, and future of Spanish political society. He emphasizes the roles played by the labor and nationalist movements and analyzes the communist influence.

Download or read book The Spanish Civil War the Soviet Union and Communism written by Stanley G. Payne and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compelling book Stanley G. Payne offers the first comprehensive narrative of Soviet and Communist intervention in the revolution and civil war in Spain. He documents in unprecedented detail Soviet strategies, Comintern activities, and the role of the Communist party in Spain from the early 1930s to the end of the civil war in 1939. Drawing on a very broad range of Soviet and Spanish primary sources, including many only recently available, Payne changes our understanding of Soviet and Communist intentions in Spain, of Stalin’s decision to intervene in the Spanish war, of the widely accepted characterization of the conflict as the struggle of fascism against democracy, and of the claim that Spain’s war constituted the opening round of World War II. The author arrives at a new view of the Spanish Civil War and concludes not only that the Democratic Republic had many undemocratic components but also that the position of the Communist party was by no means counterrevolutionary.

Download or read book Press Propaganda and Politics written by Rubén Jarazo Álvarez and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-11 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collective work aims to compare media (and in particular cultural press) in Francoist Spain and Communist Romania, placing the two opposing paradigms in a common approach with the intention of identifying shared patterns and intricate connections between them, but, at the same time, without ignoring their radical differences. This comparison is performed both explicitly, through several chapters focusing on the general methodological implications of such a comparison between Francoist Spain and Communist Romania in the development of totalitarian / dictatorial propagandistic systems; and implicitly, by offering the academic frame to a series of case studies from both regimes. The contributors to this volume – Spanish, Anglo-Saxon and Romanian scholars – approach several aspects of media in relation to politics, propaganda, historical or social aspects in the two regimes, based on their academic backgrounds: history, cultural studies, media and literature. The volume intends to suggest – through its collection of general, comparative or analytic chapters, as well as through a new approach on two political and cultural phenomena otherwise studied as opposing paradigms – the need for a larger debate on the potential of the approach to these phenomena in a common framework.
Download or read book The Franco Regime 1936 1975 written by Stanley G. Payne and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1987-11-15 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of modern Spain is dominated by the figure of Francisco Franco, who presided over one of the longest authoritarian regimes of the twentieth century. Between 1936 and the end of the regime in 1975, Franco’s Spain passed through several distinct phases of political, institutional, and economic development, moving from the original semi-fascist regime of 1936–45 to become the Catholic corporatist “organic democracy” under the monarchy from 1945 to 1957. Distinguished historian Stanley G. Payne offers deep insight into the career of this complex and formidable figure and the enormous changes that shaped Spanish history during his regime.
