The disentailment of the land began in 1836 under the minister and financier Juan Alvarez Mendizabal. His main target was the expropriation of the property owned by the secular as well as the regular clergy. It was sold at public auction with payment in either cash or government debt. Common and municipal lands were for the time being only leased out. It was not until the passing of the so-called Law of General Disentailment by in 1855 that all the land not privately owned was sold at pub• lic auction. 7. The two main political factions were the so-called Moderados and the Progresistas. The Moderados were the party of the upper classes, who believed in a political sovereignty shared by the Crown and parliament and quickly re-established good relations with the Catholic Church. The Progresistas appealed more to the middle classes. They were more anti-clerical and sup• ported parliamentary sovereignty, elected municipal governments and the establishment of citizens' militias under local control. Yet both models were essentially centralist and restricted the franchise to those with large prop• erty. The Progresistas granted the vote in 1837 to 2.2 per cent of the popula• tion which was later restricted by the Moderados in 1845 to just 0.8 per cent of the country. In 1856 the Progresistas extended the franchise to over 4 per cent of the population. 8. Nadal, op.cit., p. 541.

Lerroux has historically been vilified by Socialist, Syndicalist and Catalanist authors. Modern historiography has, to a certain extent, rescued Lerroux's tarnished reputation by trying to find a balance between his oppor• tunism and close collaboration with Liberal governments in Madrid with his ability to create a modern political party by mobilizing elements of the proletariat and petty bourgeoisie, formerly unrepresented within the Spanish political system. See J. Romero-Maura, 'La rosa de fuego'. El obrerismo barcelones de 1899 a 1909 (Madrid: Alianza Editorial, 1989); J. Alvarez Junco, El Emperador del Paralelo: Lerroux y Ia demagogia populista (Madrid: Alianza Editorial, 1990); J. R. Mosher, The Birth of Mass Politics in Spain: Lerrouxismo in Barcelona, 1901-1909 (New York: Garland, 1991). 6. Some 121 000 workers, 80 000 of them in Andaluda, affiliated to the Spanish Regional Federation (1870-81 ), the Spanish section of the First International. At the Congress held at Seville in 1882, a new Regional Federation of Spanish Workers was created. It had a total of 57 934 mem• bers, almost 40 000 in Andaluda, most of the rest were from Catalufia. The Socialists could not have had more than 3000 members at the time. Internal divisions and state repression brought about the disappearance of the Anarchist organization in 1888. 7. D.

During his reign, political crises were known as 'orientales' as they were pro• duced and resolved at the Palace of Oriente, Alfonso's residence. See Varela, Los amigos, pp. 450-1. 17. C. Seco Serrano, Militarismo y civilismo en La Espana contempordnea (Madrid: Instituto de £studios Economicos, 1984), p. 233. In 1900 there were 499 generals, 578 colonels and over 23 000 officers for some 80 000 troops (six times more officers than in France which had an standing army of 180 000 soldiers). This represented a cancer for the state which devoted over 40 per cent of its expenditure to defence. However, 70 per cent of the mili• tary budget went on officers' salaries, hence neglecting the modernization of the armed services. 18. Ballbe, Orden, pp. 272-7. 19. A. Balcells, Catalan Nationalism (London: Macmillan, 1996), pp. 55-8. 20. In February 190 I Maura warned that if the regime did not lead a revolu• tion from above, it would be overthrown by an insurrection from below. See G. Maura and M. Fernandez Almagro, Por que cay6 Alfonso XIII (Madrid: Ambos Mundos, 1948), p. 40. 21. Maura had opposed the introduction of the Law of Jurisdictions by the Liberals in 1906. A certain mutual admiration and co-operation was sealed after 1907 between Maura and Camb6. Yet the Lliga refused to become the Catalan branch of the Conservative party. 22. The best analysis of the Tragic Week is Connelly Ullman, The Tragic Week; more recent is P. Voltes, La semana trdgica (Madrid: Espasa Calpe, 1995 ). Ferrer Guardia hardly played any part in the Tragic Week. He was con• demned for his historical position as leading Anarchist thinker and his pos• sible part in the assassination attempt against Alfonso XIII in 1906. That action was carried out by Mateo Morral, a teacher in Ferrer's school. In 1907 he was tried but acquitted for lack of evidence. In 1909, Ferrer was used as scapegoat for the tragic events. A decisive factor in his sentence was the accusation of several Radical politicians that he had been the chief of the rebellion. In fact, they had more to answer for than Ferrer. 23. T. G.

24. They included regulation of working conditions, labour insurance, the right of religious freedom in public and the famous Padlock Law which halted the further growth of religious orders in Spain. 25. Romanones embodies probably better than anybody else the stereotype of leading dynastic notable of the era - a clear representative of the Castilian landed oligarchy, but also a financier, one of the largest investors in the Moroccan mines and a courtier. He was well known for his cynical approach to politics, lack of ideological principles and his ability to 'make' elections. The philosopher and novelist Miguel de Unamuno wrote that 'the limit of a semantic paradox was that Roman ones was one of the lead• ers of Spanish Liberalism'. 26. M.

In 1910 the Radical Party still cashed in on the events of July 1909 to obtain a resounding electoral victory. Under a cloud of financial scandals, the Social• ists expelled them from the conjunci6n in December. By 1914, the Radicals' popularity and credibility among Catalan workers was in clear decline. 30.

Romanones, op.cit., p. 103; Fernandez, Historia, pp. 205-7. Alfonso aspired to the role of mediator in the Great War and even to organize a peace summit. To confirm that position, in 1915 he set up a bureau to deal with prisoners' conditions, missing citizens, humanitarian aid, etc. However, the Russian Revolution and the subsequent acceptance by the Allies of the new regime moved Alfonso towards the Germanophile camp. 4 7.

Between June and August 1917, Maura was constantly urged by his follow• ers to take a decision. Some, such as the right-wing Catalan Maurista, Gustavo Peyra, established links with the juntas, and tried to convince Maura to seize power with their support. Others, such as Ossorio or Miguel Maura, encouraged him to join the Assembly and destroy the corrupt politi• cal system. They all ran into Maura's categorical opposition. He refused to support the Assembly as it was a subversive manceuvre against the legal order and opposed any contacts with the officers even leaving one of their messengers out in a heavy storm outside his holiday home in Santander.

Many Mauristas welcomed and supported the dictatorship assuming that Primo was putting into practice Maura's message of revolution from above. However, Maura, a Liberal, first and foremost, until his death in 1925 made clear his distance and dislike for the new regime. See Fernandez, Historia, p. 362; Maura, op.cit., p. 119. 30.

Being aware of Galan's intentions, the provisional government sent one of its members, the Galician Republican Casares Quiroga, to stop him but he arrived too late. 62. The exception was Lerroux, raising once more questions about his political dealings, as although a prominent member of the provisional government, he was not arrested. According to M. Maura (op.cit., p. 105), the police informed him that Lerroux was not to be molested! The other Republicans could never conceal their distrust for the Radicals and their shady reputa• tion. In San Sebastian, they agreed not to give them any portfolios with economic responsibilities. 63. J. Ar6stegui, 'El insurreccionalismo en Ia crisis de Ia Restauraci6n', in J. L.

In the meantime, his party, following in its traditional foot• steps of accidentalism and opportunism, left all doors open. The decision to join the cabinet in March and bet on the continuity of the regime, proved a serious miscalculation which only accelerated the decline of the Lliga in Catalan politics. Both Mauristas and the Lliga founded a new group in March, the Centro Constitucional, as the foundation of a modern conserva• tive party. It never really took off and came too late to save the monarchy. 68. Maura, op.cit., p. 126. 69. Cierva, Notas, pp. 342-3. 70. Seco, Militarismo, pp. 370-1; Maura, op.cit., pp. 132-7. 71.

74. According to Maura (op.cit., pp. 145, !52, 180-1), the Republicans initially welcomed the results as the perfect step in order to win the forthcoming general elections, but feared the possible announcement of martial law and their subsequent arrest. They were genuinely surprised but took advantage of the Monarchist disintegration during the next twenty-four hours. 75. Fernandez, op.cit., pp. 469-70. 76. Gomez, op.cit., pp. 526-7. 77.

The total UGT membership grew from less than 300000 in December 1930 to more than a million in june 1932. The sudden growth of the FNTT was greatly out of proportion with the overall growth of the UGT. The FNTT constituted about I 0 per cent of the total UGT membership in 1930, two years later it was nearly 40 per cent. 19. Lannon, op.cit., pp. 166-9; Cabrera, Patronal, pp. 63-5. Notes 197

The Catholic Minister of the Interior, Miguel Maura, praised the spirit of compromise and the lack of feelings of revenge which presided over the members of the Republican government. He singled out for their modera• tion and sense of responsibility the Socialist Indalecio Prieto and Fernando de los Rios. Maura also stressed the subversive and conspiratorial activities of influential elements in the Church's hierarchy leaving him with no option but to expel them from the country.

It seems that the Radical leader had been in close touch with Sanjurjo before the coup, but the Azafia cabinet preferred to avoid investigating these contacts that if exposed could have a devastating effect on public opinion.

The POUM cannot be termed a Trotskyist group. Some of its leaders had once been disciples of Trotsky, and the party secretary, Andreu Nin, had been his private secretary in the past. Yet Trotsky cut links with the POUM after that group decided to join the Popular Front and his criticisms increased as the war went on. See L. Trotsky, The Spanish Revolution, 4th edn (New York: Pathfinder, 1986), pp. 207-21, 245-50. 60. For a personal, but one-sided account of the May events see G.
