  • 'Against the State': a Genealogy of the Barcelona May Days (1937)
    Articles 29/4 2/9/99 10:15 am Page 485 Helen Graham ‘Against the State’: A Genealogy of the Barcelona May Days (1937) The state is not something which can be destroyed by a revolution, but is a condition, a certain relationship between human beings, a mode of human behaviour; we destroy it by contracting other relationships, by behaving differently.1 For a European audience, one of the most famous images fixing the memory of the Spanish Civil War is of the street fighting- across-the-barricades which occurred in Barcelona between 3 and 7 May 1937. Those days of social protest and rebellion have been represented in many accounts, of which the single best known is still George Orwell’s contemporary diary account, Homage to Catalonia, recently given cinematic form in Ken Loach’s Land and Freedom. It is paradoxical, then, that the May events remain among the least understood in the history of the civil war. The analysis which follows is an attempt to unravel their complexity. On the afternoon of Monday 3 May 1937 a detachment of police attempted to seize control of Barcelona’s central telephone exchange (Telefónica) in order to remove the anarchist militia forces present therein. News of the attempted seizure spread rapidly through the popular neighbourhoods of the old town centre and port. By evening the city was on a war footing, although no organization — inside or outside government — had issued any such command. The next day barricades went up in central Barcelona; there was a generalized work stoppage and armed resistance to the Catalan government’s attempt to occupy the telephone exchange.

  • Preston, Paul, the Coming of the Spanish Civil War: Reform, Reaction and Revolution in the Second
    THE COMING OF THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR The breakdown of democracy in Spain in the 1930s resulted in a torrent of political and military violence. In this thoroughly revised edition of his classic text, Paul Preston provides a deeply disturbing explanation of the democratic collapse, coherently and excitingly outlining the social and economic background. Spain was a backward agricultural country divided by the most brutal economic inequalities. The coming of the Second Republic in April 1931 was greeted by the Left as an opportunity to reform Spain’s antiquated social structure. Over the next two years, the Socialist members of a Republican—Socialist coalition pushed for reforms to alleviate the day-to- day misery of the great southern army of landless labourers. Paul Preston shows how the political activities of the Right, legal and conspiratorial, between 1931 and 1936, as well as the subsequent Nationalist war effort, were primarily a response to these reforming ambitions of the Left. His principal argument is that, although the Spanish Civil War encompassed many separate conflicts, the main cause of the breakdown of the Second Republic was the struggle between Socialists and the legalist Right to impose their respective views of social organisation on Spain by means of their control of the apparatus of state. The incompatible interests represented by these two mass parliamentary parties—those of the landless labourers and big landlords, of industrialists and workers—spilled over into social conflicts which could not be contained within the parliamentary arena. Since the first edition of this book was completed more than fifteen years ago, archives have been opened up, the diaries, letters and memoirs of major protagonists have been published, and there have been innumerable studies of the politics of the Republic, of parties, unions, elections and social conflict, both national and provincial.

Evasion services: tha Martín group Pelai Pagès i Blanch Universitat de Barcelona *[email protected] Rebut: 12/02/2019 Acceptat: 10/04/2019 Resum El Partit Obrer d’Unificació del Marxista fou el primer partit que, després de la der- rota a la guerra civil espanyola, el 1939, va patir una intensa repressió per part dels col·laboracionistes amb l’Alemanya nazi que havien format un govern a Vichy. La direcció del POUM va ser detinguda a Montauban el febrer de 1941 i va ser jutjada per un Tribunal Militar el mes de novembre, condemnant la majoria dels seus mem- bres a llargues condemnes de presó. A desgrat de tot, alguns es varen poder esca- polir i van poder sumar-se a la resistència. Un dels dirigents que no va ser detingut fou Josep Rovira, que ben aviat es va sumar també a la resistència contra l’ocupació nazi posant en funcionament una xarxa d’evasió coneguda com a “grup Martín”. Es tractava de recuperar aviadors o paracaigudistes aliats que queien en territori fran- cès ocupat pels nazis i treure’ls del país a través de la frontera amb Espanya. El grup d’evasió Martín fou dels pocs que varen existir en territori francès. Paraules Clau: Procés de Montauban; Xarxa d’evasió; grup Martin Abstract The Marxist Unification Labour Party was the first party that, after the defeat of the Spanish Civil War in 1939, suffered intense repression by the collaborators with the Nazi Germany that formed a government in Vichy .

  • READING the RUNES New Perspectives on the Spanish Civil War Archival and Related Research on the Historiography of the Spanish Civil War Since the Death of Franco
    READING THE RUNES New Perspectives on The Spanish Civil War Archival and related research on the historiography of the Spanish Civil War since the death of Franco Stephen Schwartz In an unexpected coincidence, the fall of the Communist regimes and opening (in some cases temporary) of their archives, beginning in the 1990s, followed a similar process of documentary disclosure in Spain, regarding the civil war of 1936-39, in which Communism played a central role. The Spanish archival disclosures were better organized, more complete, and more thorough than those, for example, in Russia. Generalísimo Francisco Franco died in 1975 and the dictatorship he created dissolved during a six-year transition to democracy overseen by King Juan Carlos. The opening, publication, and study of archival material, however, lagged behind the republication and issuance of new works on the history of the radical Republicans in Spain, including the anarcho-syndicalist movement (National Confederation of Labour and the Iberian Anarchist Federation – CNT-FAI), the Spanish Socialist Workers Party (PSOE), the Workers Party of Marxist Unification (POUM), and the Catalan Republican Left (ERC). The most useful Spanish archival releases and new historiographical volumes have mainly dealt with these parties. By contrast, little fresh commentary on the “official” Spanish Communist Party (PCE) has been produced in Spain, and aside from documentation on the relations between the PCE as Communist International (CI) Communists and their main leftist adversary, the POUM, which considered itself Communist but anti-Stalinist, archival material on the PCE has generally been drawn from Russian holdings, releases from which are limited, although exceptionally valuable.
