This was an occasion for reflecting on the past century of working class history. Mainstream labour orga- nizations typically understand their own histories as never-ending struggles for better working conditions and a higher standard of living for their members –as the wresting of piecemeal concessions from capitalists and the State. -

SÁNCHEZ PÉREZ, FRANCISCO. La Protesta De Un
504 Book reviews renovated anarcho-syndicalism; doctrinal renewal (revision of the theory of the state, of the conception of the economy, of the idea of revolution). So whilst not uncritical of the CNT leadership, Lorenzo distances himself from those he regards as unrealistic purists who were critical of the CNT’s decisions, from the refusal to campaign for abstention in the February 1936 elections, through militarization, to participation in government; and this applies both to Spanish militants such as Jose´ Peirats, to leading anarchists in other countries, such as the Frenchman Pierre Besnard, and to later commentators, such as the English anarchist Vernon Richards (whose 1953 Lessons of the Spanish Revolution is nevertheless praised as being the best history of the revolution written from a ‘‘fundamentalist anarchist’’ viewpoint). This is still a contentious area, and Lorenzo criticizes the alleged reductionism of many Marxist analyses and the ‘‘liberalism’’ which he claims characterizes many British and American studies of the Spanish Civil War. When Lorenzo’s book first appeared in 1969, his analysis was also attacked by some for being biased (Horacio Prieto was his father). But Lorenzo is unapologetic: ‘‘No historian has ever written or will ever write from ‘nowhere’, sub specie aeternitatis, whether consciously or not. [:::] What is important is the intellectual probity demonstrated by the historian’’ (p. 4). And this book is indeed an impressive piece of scholarship, whether one agrees with all aspects of the analysis or not: thoroughly researched, clearly and intelligently argued, and a valuable contribution to the literature. Lorenzo comments on the limitations of a work of political history, arguing that a more general history of Spanish anarchism would necessitate a much longer study of several volumes and remains to be done. -
SAR M. Le Mouvement Anarchiste En Espagne. Pouvoir Et RÉ
502 Book reviews Lorenzo, Ce´sar M. Le mouvement anarchiste en Espagne. Pouvoir et re´volution sociale. Les E´ ditions Libertaires, S.l. 2006. 559 pp. A 35.00. DOI: S0020859007023267 This is a revised, updated, and considerably expanded edition of a study which first appeared in 1969. The bulk of it is divided into four parts, which provide a more or less chronological account. Part 1 covers the rise of a libertarian workers’ movement, analysing its ideological foundations, and tracing its development from the September Revolution of 1868 to the CNT’s Saragossa conference of May 1936. Part 2 provides a ‘‘panorama’’ of the revolution of July 1936, each chapter analysing the revolutionary political structures thrown up in different parts of the country, and the role played within them by the CNT. Part 3 concentrates on ‘‘the civil war within the civil war’’, from the autumn of 1936 through the counter-revolution of May 1937 to the CNT’s relations with the Negrin government; it also examines the strengths and weaknesses of the collectivizations (still a seriously under-researched area). The shorter Part 4 analyses what the author calls the ‘‘period of decadence and retreat’’ from the defeat of 1939 through to the experience of exile and the divisions of the post-Franco era. In a thirty-seven-page ‘‘appendix’’, Lorenzo addresses critically the various more or less dubious attempts to explain why there has been, as the French anarchist Louis Lecoin once put it, ‘‘no other country where Anarchism has put down such deep roots as in Spain’’.1 Whilst rejecting what he bluntly dismisses as ‘‘racist’’ attempts at explanation and praising the work of some Marxist historians (Pierre Vilar, notably), Lorenzo goes on to analyse Spanish culture and the set of values and attitudes which, he argues, left their mark on what would become a distinctively Spanish anarchism. -
El Antiintelectualismo De La CNT Y La Revolución De Julio De 1936
El antiintelectualismo de la CNT y la revolución de julio de 1936 Víctor GARCÍA Las raíces del antiintelectualismo de la CNT se remontan en el pretérito decimonónico. Los atisbos más palmarios se pueden observar en los primeros congresos de la Asociación Internacional de Trabajadores (AIT) y partiendo del mismo momento de su fundación, en Saint Martin’s Hall, Londres, el 28 de septiembre de 1864, cuando el espíritu proudhoniano, por boca de los delegados galos, inspiró los principios obreristas internacionales. Fue una creación francesa que el despotismo de Napoleón III forzó a que se manifestara en Inglaterra. El manifiesto redactado por la delegación francesa, de regreso de Londres, ya señala las intenciones de marginación frente al intelectual: «El trabajo confirma su igualdad frente a las demás fuerzas y quiere conquistar su puesto en un mundo moral y material y ello en base a su propia iniciativa y al margen de todas las influencias que durante estos últimos tiempos ha sufrido e, inclusive, solicitado». Es la prosa de Proudhon en su De la Capacité politique des Classes Ouvrieres. Cuando tiene lugar el primer congreso de la AlT, en Ginebra, en septiembre de 1886, a los dos años de su creación, el obrerismo per sé se agudiza todavía más. Marx ya le había escrito a Engels, el 6 de abril de aquel año: «Debo decirte con franqueza que la Internacional no va bien…» y repite, el 23 del mismo mes: «Desde aquí (Londres) haré todo lo posible porque el congreso de Ginebra tenga éxito, pero no asistiré a él. De esta manera evito toda responsabilidad personal». -

Contributions to the Study of World History, no. 97. Westport, Conn. and London: Greenwood Press, 2002. xiv + 323 pp. Notes, bibliography, and index. $64.95 U.S. (cl). ISBN 0-313-32026-8. Review by Judith Wishnia, State University of New York at Stony Brook. Go to any manif in Paris and you will inevitably see a small group of young men and women waving the black flag of anarchism, the remnant of what was once a powerful influence on left-wing politics in France. For it was in France, as David Berry tells us, that anarchism first became a significant force, especially in the development of revolutionary syndicalism, a historical subject worthy of study. Berry pays homage to the magisterial work of Jean Maitron, as well as the studies of Daniel Colson, Roland Briard, Katherine Amdur, Steven Vincent, among others, but most of these books emphasize the period before and just after the First World War, or in the case of Briard, the post-World War II period.[1] Missing is a thorough analysis of the theoretical and tactical struggles and changes within the anarchist movement between the two world wars. This is the era covered by this very intensive study, a period experiencing such major events as the Russian Revolution and the subsequent growth of the world-wide Communist Party, the rise of fascism, and the Spanish Civil War, when certain segments of the anarchist movement attempted to move away from the glorification of individual action toward more organization and practical action, with close ties to the labor movement. -
