Rethinking Revolutions from 1905 to 1934
This edited collection offers a timely and original perspective on the many upheavals and revolutions that broke out across the world during the earlytwentieth century. With previous research tending to confine revolutions within national borders, this book sets out to place them within a broader global sphere of thought and action. The authors explore the time phase between the Russian Revolution of 1905 and the Asturian Revolution of 1934, including cases from South Africa, Australia, China, the Middle East and Latin America. Providing insights from leading scholars in the field, this collection highlights the interconnectedness and transnationalism of upheavals and revolutions, offering a new approach which integrates political, social and cultural history.

The Palgrave Handbook of Anti-Communist Persecutions
This handbook explores anti-communism as an overarching phenomenon of twentieth-century global history, showing how anti-communist policies and practices transformed societies around the world. It advances research on anti-communism by looking beyond ideologies and propaganda to uncover how these ideas were put into practice. Case studies examine the role of states and non-state actors in anti-communist persecutions, and cover a range of topics, including social crises, capitalist accumulation and dispossession, political clientelism and warfare. Through its comparative perspective, the handbook reveals striking similarities between different cases from various world regions and highlights t...
The Spanish Military and Warfare from 1899 to the Civil War
This book explores the attitudes of the Spanish army officer corps towards the evolution of warfare during the early decades of the twentieth century, and their influence on the armies of the Spanish Civil War. It examines how the Spanish military coped with technological innovations such as the machine gun and the tank, how it adapted the army ́s battlefield doctrine to changes in warfare before the Civil War, and the influence of this doctrine on the outcome of the conflict. Of the different armed forces that fought in the Spanish Civil War, it is paradoxically the Spanish army that remains most forgotten - especially its military doctrine. Scholarship on the Spanish military in this period focuses on its politics, ideology and institutional reforms, touching upon 'hard' professional issues only superficially, if at all. Based on original research and using largely unstudied Spanish primary sources, this book fills a major scholarly gap in the history of the Spanish army and the Spanish Civil War.
Transnational Fascism in the Twentieth Century
Developing a knowledge of the Spanish-Italian connection between right-wing extremist groups is crucial to any detailed understanding of the history of fascism. Transnational Fascism in the Twentieth Century allows us to consider the global fascist network that built up over the course of the 20th century by exploring one of the significant links that existed within that network. It distinguishes and analyses the relationship between the fascists of Spain and Italy at three interrelated levels - that of the individual, political organisations and the state - whilst examining the world relations and contacts of both fascist factions, from Buenos Aires to Washington and Berlin to Montevideo, in what is a genuinely transnational history of the fascist movement. Incorporating research carried out in archives around the world, this book delivers key insights to further the historical study of right-wing political violence in modern Europe.
The Age of Mass Child Removal in Spain
This text examines the ideas and practices underpinning state removal of children. Early twentieth century Spanish juvenile courts were involved in taking children from poor families, families displaced by war, and from political opponents. This study captures the voice and agency of the marginalized children and parents affected by mass removals.
Comunicación e historia olvidada: una mirada transversal desde la contemporaneidad
La influencia del pasado sobre el presente y la necesidad de revisarlo y actualizarlo son preocupaciones que trascienden el ámbito profesional de los historiadores. La Restauración, la Guerra Civil, el franquismo, la Transición, etc. la revisión de periodos tan complejos siempre conlleva el riesgo de olvidar una parte del relato. Apostar por reflexiones maduras, plurales y desde diferentes perspectivas se presenta como una necesidad a la hora de comprender lo sucedido en una o varias etapas concretas. Comunicación e historia olvidada: una mirada transversal desde la contemporaneidad es el título de esta monografía en la que, a lo largo de sus páginas, se encuentran planteamientos fir...

Guerras civiles
La historia contemporanea de Espana, Francia y otros paises del continente europeo resulta inexplicable sin tener en cuenta los enfrentamientos fratricidas vinculados a fenomenos tan diversos como la revolucion, la contrarrevolucion, la insurreccion, la guerra civil o la resistencia armada frente al invasor foraneo. Aprovechando este rico bagaje de experiencias historicas, y con la mirada atenta a los procesos similares vividos en otros paises europeos y americanos, et presente libro analiza aspectos tan diversos como los problemas anejos a una conceptualizacion cientifica de la guerra civil, la comparacion de los procesos historicos de enfrentamiento civil en Espana y Francia en los siglos XIX y XX, la proyeccion europea del fenomeno guerracivilista, las logicas de la violencia y la formacion cultural de la imagen del enemigo en este tipo de confrontaciones a gran escala.
La vergüenza en el punto ciego
Cuando el ser humano afronta el miedo, o simplemente vive la incertidumbre, se activan mecanismos de defensa que con frecuencia ni controla porque siquiera se da cuenta de ellos, alcanzando incluso afectaciones radicales de la percepción de la realidad, o de otros aspectos fundamentales de la memoria. Y todo esto es bien conocido por quienes sin el más mínimo escrúpulo lo utilizan como herramienta del poder, por mucho que abunden individuos que operan de manera similar pero sin esa calculada intencionalidad, a menudo bajo muy peligrosas inercias irreflexivas. El conjunto impregna la dinámica gubernamental y acaba por embrutecer universales como el Derecho, la Democracia, la Ley o la Sob...
