Milicianas
"Women played an integral role in the Spanish Civil War. In fact, women's participation in the anti-fascist resistance constituted one of the greatest mass political mobilizations of women in Spain's history. Milicianas provides a comprehensive picture of what life was like for the women who fought alongside their male comrades during the first year of the Spanish Civil War, focusing on how the women themselves viewed this experience. It examines the political and social forces that led to the acceptance of women into the ranks of armed combatants, and those that led to their eventual removal from the front"--Page 4 of cover.
The Spanish Civil War
A detailed account of the war describes Republican political life during the period and recounts the rise of the Spanish Communist Party
Memory and Cultural History of the Spanish Civil War
The authors in this anthology explore how we are to rethink political and social narratives of the Spanish Civil War at the turn of the twenty-first century. The questions addressed here are based on a solid intellectual conviction of all the contributors to resist facile arguments both on the Right and the Left, concerning the historical and collective memory of the Spanish Civil War and the dictatorship in the milieu of post-transition to democracy. Central to a true democratic historical narrative is the commitment to listening to the other experiences and the willingness to rethink our present(s) in light of our past(s). The volume is divided in six parts: I. Institutional Realms of Memo...

Spanska inbördeskriget
I juli 1936 utbröt en militärrevolt mot den spanska regeringen under ledning av general Franco. Striderna övergick snabbt till ett regelrätt inbördeskrig. Truppförband sändes från Italien och Tyskland till Francos hjälp, medan regeringssidan stöddes av Internationella brigaden som bestod av frivilliga från utlandet. Bland dessa fanns cirka 500 svenskar och världsberömda författare som Ernest Hemingway och George Orwell. Striderna var hårda. I mars 1939 vann rebellerna en avgörande seger och Franco blev det fascistiska Spaniens diktator. Spanska inbördeskriget var en av de våldsammaste konflikterna under 1900-talet. Antalet döda gick upp mot en halv miljon, många av offren var civila. Kriget kan ses som upptakt till andra världskriget. Här berättar Antony Beevor detta osedvanligt grymma krigs historia. Han gör det på beevorskt manér: med berättartekniken på topp, briljant beskrivning av de militära operationerna och gripande personöden.

ETA and Basque Nationalism (RLE: Terrorism & Insurgency)
This book traces the formation of ETA (Euskadi ta Askatasuna) and the tensions created by its combination and aims: socialism and Basque nationalism. The Basque Nationalist movement emerged in the late nineteenth century as a response to the rapid transformation of Basque society by industrialisation. The influx of Spanish-speaking workers to Basque territories seemed to threaten the stability of basque society. Gradually the immigrants became absorbed into the radical struggle, with the creation of illegal trade unions and the need to resist the Franco regimne by whatever means. Over the next half century Basque consicousness developed until the radical nationalist organisation ETA was formed in 1959.
