    8/29/2020 Stuart Christie obituary | Politics | The Guardian Stuart Christie obituary Anarchist who was jailed in Spain for an attempt to assassinate Franco and later acquitted of being a member of the Angry Brigade Duncan Campbell Mon 17 Aug 2020 10.40 BST In 1964 a dashing, long-haired 18-year-old British anarchist, Stuart Christie, faced the possibility of the death penalty in Madrid for his role in a plot to assassinate General Franco, the Spanish dictator. A man of great charm, warmth and wit, Christie, who has died of cancer aged 74, got away with a 20-year prison sentence and was eventually released after less than four years, only to find himself in prison several years later in Britain after being accused of being a member of the Angry Brigade, a group responsible for a series of explosions in London in the early 1970s. On that occasion he was acquitted, and afterwards he went on to become a leading writer and publisher of anarchist literature, as well as the author of a highly entertaining memoir, Granny Made Me an Anarchist. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2020/aug/17/stuart-christie-obituary 1/5 8/29/2020 Stuart Christie obituary | Politics | The Guardian Christie’s Franco-related mission was to deliver explosives to Madrid for an attempt to blow up the Spanish leader while he attended a football match at the city’s Bernabéu stadium. Telling his family that he was going grape-picking in France, he went first to Paris, where it turned out that the only French he knew, to the amusement of his anarchist hosts, was “Zut, alors!” There he was given explosives and furnished with instructions on how to make himself known to his contact by wearing a bandage on his hand.

  • The Culture of Democratic Spain and the Issue of Torture
    © 8 The Culture of Democratic Spain and the Issue of Torture Luis Martín-Estudillo The issue of torture has been both a problem in terms of human rights and one closely tied to international prestige and cultural polemics for the last four decades in Spain. While denunciations of tortures inflicted on enemies of the Franco regime were an important part of the opposition’s public opinion campaigns during the dictatorship, after the general’s death in 1975 the persistence of tortures practiced by the various police forces became a delicate political question for the newly established parliamentary monarchy. The transition to democracy during the 1970s coincided with two major developments that affected the social perception of torture. One was very visible; it could be summarized as the coming of age of international human rights monitoring. The other went explicably unnoticed, as it had to do with certain “reasons of state” and practices that must remain secret in order to function within their own logic: I am referring to the change in torture practices from “scarring” (those that leave traces on the victim’s body) to “clean” (those which do not) techniques at a global level, as Darius Rejali has documented. In that context, accusations of torture undermined officials’ efforts to promote a “normalized” image of Spain as a “wholly European” (i.e., “civilized”) nation that sought full integration into the group of advanced democracies by leaving behind the repressive policies of the Francoist dictatorship.1 The presence of torture as one of the hot topics in public debate, as it was during the 1970s thanks to the struggle of a minority of opposition politicians and intellectuals, was not compatible with the image that needed to be constructed to achieve identification with the targeted European ideal.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, pp. 128-155. ___________________________________________________________________________ CHAPTER 5 The Prison of Carabanchel (Madrid, Spain). A Life Story Alfredo González-Ruibal and Carmen Ortiz1 Introduction Since 2007, a group of researchers (anthropologists, archaeologists and historians) from the Spanish National Research Council has been investigating the manifold processes of appropriation and disavowal of the prison of Carabanchel in Madrid. In this chapter we examine the biography of the prison: including not just its birth, life and death, but also its afterlife. The prison of Carabanchel has been one of the most monumental and recognizable symbols of repression in Spain from its construction in 1940 until its destruction in 2008. Even today, it looms large in the imagination of many Spaniards as the quintessential space of punishment in the recent history of the country, although its meanings and functions have changed over time. The short but complex history (and post-history) of Carabanchel makes the prison a multifaceted and often contradictory site. It has been a place of political repression and resistance, a place of memory and oblivion, and of abjection and heroism. Through time, Carabanchel Prison, as a technology of punishment and a symbol of oppression, has changed. Despite its apparently inalterable construction, the materiality of the building has undergone important transformations as well. In this chapter we assess this entanglement of materialities, life histories, collective and individual memories, and regimes of punishment which have simultaneously shaped Carabanchel Prison and the neighbourhood in which it dwells.

  • Toxic Criminalities in Francoist Spain the Making of a European Dictatorship
    Toxic Criminalities in Francoist Spain The Making of a European Dictatorship Ibai Atutxa Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy! in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 2018! Ibai Atutxa CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 ABSTRACT Toxic Criminalities in Francoist Spain: The Making of a European Dictatorship Ibai Atutxa This dissertation investigates the transformation undergone by the Francoist dictatorship (1939-1978) in Spain in the 1950s and 1960s, which occurred under conditions of neoliberal rationalities and petroleum toxicity –petrotoxicty. It addresses the transformation at three levels: the dictatorship’s criminalized bodies; the Francoist national political project; and early transnational attempts for European unification. By exploring an archive of laws, mass media, and intellectual dialogues, the dissertation contends that there was a shift in regimes of criminality that allowed the dictatorship in the south and Europe in the north to establish the initial form of their coalition. The dissertation addresses processes of recognition of criminality by establishing a critical framework that examines the transition from a dominant paradigm of disease toxicity to one of petrotoxicity. In proposing that this transition took place together with the development of neoliberalism, the dissertation argues that the neoliberal regime operated during its period of consolidation by generalizing, at national and transnational scales, forms of exclusion and inclusion that were characteristic of what the text presents as the “petrotoxic regime of criminality.” By conducting the analysis through the lens of the petrotoxic regime of criminality, the dissertation offers a fresh perspective to the debate within Spanish Peninsular Cultural Studies about the seemingly contradictory nature that the Francoist dictatorship acquired during this period; both anti-modern and modern; both Catholic fundamentalist and neoliberal capitalist.
