  • Understanding the Paris Commune on Its 150Th Anniversary
    Understanding the Paris Commune On its 150th Anniversary The Women of Paris on the barricades at Place Blance defend the Commune. Introduction The Paris Commune of 1871 only lasted from March 18 to May 28, just 72 days, yet it is one of the most celebrated events in socialist history. It is a legend. Yet, what was it? What is it for us today? A model for socialists? A heroic failure? Negation of the state? Or the first workers’ government? Karl Marx wrote the most famous contemporary account, yet he failed to take up some of the Commune’s serious problems. Why? In Part I of this essay, below, I look at the events of the Commune as they developed, relying largely on the work of Jacques Rougerie, whom we might call a representative of the school of “history from below,” and of Carolyn J. Eichner, a historian of women in the Commune. (Where quotations have no footnote, they come from Rougerie’s books.) In Part II, which can be read online here or in print in the summer 2021 issue of New Politics, I look critically at Marx’s interpretation of the Commune to examine issues he declined to take up and the reason he neglected some important issues. Part I – The Commune as it Was The Emperor and the War War and a humiliating French defeat created the crisis that brought about the Paris Commune. On September 1, 1870 at the Battle of Sedan the French Emperor Louis Napoleon Bonaparte (Napoleon III), his government, and the French nation suffered a catastrophic defeat at the hands of the Prussian Chancellor Otto von Bismarck.

Long Live the Revolutions: Fighting for France's Political Future in the Long Wake of the Commune, 1871-1880 Abstract The traumatic legacies of the Paris Commune and its harsh suppression in 1871 had a significant impact on the identities and voter outreach efforts of each of the chief political blocs of the 1870s. The political and cultural developments of this phenomenal decade, which is frequently mislabeled as calm and stable, established the Republic's longevity and set its character. Yet the Commune's legacies have never been comprehensively examined in a way that synthesizes their political and cultural effects. This dissertation offers a compelling perspective of the 1870s through qualitative and quantitative analyses of the influence of these legacies, using sources as diverse as parliamentary debates, visual media, and scribbled sedition on city walls, to explicate the decade's most important political and cultural moments, their origins, and their impact.

  • Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930S
    Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930s Ariel Mae Lambe Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Ariel Mae Lambe All rights reserved ABSTRACT Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930s Ariel Mae Lambe This dissertation shows that during the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939) diverse Cubans organized to support the Spanish Second Republic, overcoming differences to coalesce around a movement they defined as antifascism. Hundreds of Cuban volunteers—more than from any other Latin American country—traveled to Spain to fight for the Republic in both the International Brigades and the regular Republican forces, to provide medical care, and to serve in other support roles; children, women, and men back home worked together to raise substantial monetary and material aid for Spanish children during the war; and longstanding groups on the island including black associations, Freemasons, anarchists, and the Communist Party leveraged organizational and publishing resources to raise awareness, garner support, fund, and otherwise assist the cause. The dissertation studies Cuban antifascist individuals, campaigns, organizations, and networks operating transnationally to help the Spanish Republic, contextualizing these efforts in Cuba’s internal struggles of the 1930s. It argues that both transnational solidarity and domestic concerns defined Cuban antifascism. First, Cubans confronting crises of democracy at home and in Spain believed fascism threatened them directly. Citing examples in Ethiopia, China, Europe, and Latin America, Cuban antifascists—like many others—feared a worldwide menace posed by fascism’s spread.

The pact was initially a political decision, but was given legal legitimacy in the Ley De Amnistía. The decree prevented any accountability for the people who were killed, tortured, and exiled during the civil war. It pardoned those (even far-right military commanders) who were involved in the regime, allowed those who were exiled to return to Spain, and has prevented the nation from investigating human rights violations under the dictatorship. Further, the pact prevented any observation of the war or any commission to look into who bore responsibility for the war (Encarnación). Regardless, memory is crucial in order to understand the past of a nation and its trajectory moving forward.

  • Strikes and Rural Unrest During the Second Spanish Republic (1931–1936): a Geographic Approach
    sustainability Article Strikes and Rural Unrest during the Second Spanish Republic (1931–1936): A Geographic Approach Javier Puche 1,* and Carmen González Martínez 2 1 Faculty of Social and Human Sciences, University of Zaragoza, Ciudad Escolar s/n, 44003 Teruel, Spain 2 Faculty of Letters, University of Murcia, Campus de la Merced, 30071 Murcia, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-978-645-337 Received: 27 October 2018; Accepted: 17 December 2018; Published: 21 December 2018 Abstract: This article analyses the evolution and geographic distribution of the rural unrest that prevailed during the years of the Second Spanish Republic (1931–1936), a period characterised by political instability and social conflict. The number of provincial strikes recorded in the forestry and agricultural industries and complied by the Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare constitute the primary source of the study. Based on this information, maps of the regional and provincial distribution of the agricultural unrest have been created for the republican period. The results reveal that, contrary to the traditional belief which confines the rural unrest of this period to the geographic areas of the latifundios (large estates), Spanish agriculture, in all its diversity, was hit by collective disputes. Although the areas of the latifundios were most affected by the agricultural reform of 1932, the data show that the extension of the unrest in the Spanish countryside was also the result of the refusal of the landowners to accept and apply the new republican collective bargaining agreement. The number of strikes increased during the period 1931–1933, fell between 1934 and 1935, and increased again during the months of the Popular Front (February to July 1936).

  • La Incontinencia Verbal Y El Fracaso De La Ii República Española
    LA INCONTINENCIA VERBAL Y EL FRACASO DE LA II REPÚBLICA ESPAÑOLA. EL DISCURSO POLÍTICO IRRESPONSABLE Y SU CONTRIBUCIÓN AL ESTALLIDO DE LA GUERRA CIVIL Jiří Chalupa Katedra romanistiky, Filozofická fakulta, Univerzita Mateja Bela v Banskej Bystrici, Tajovského 40, 974 01 Banská Bystrica, Eslovaquia [email protected] VERBAL INCONTINENCE AND THE FAILURE OF THE SECOND SPANISH REPUBLIC. IRRESPONSIBLE POLITICAL DISCOURSE AND ITS CONTRIBUTION TO THE OUTBREAK OF THE CIVIL WAR IN SPAIN Abstract: The intention of this paper is to show how much the tragic failure of the Second Spanish Republic was the result not only of the economic, social, and international situation, but also the totally irresponsible behaviour of many of the main political actors in the ’thirties. Some speeches of Manuel Azaña, Francisco Largo Caballero, José María Gil Robles, and José Antonio Primo de Rivera will be analysed in order to show how much those iconic characters let themselves be seduced by their own words, speaking in a very reck- less manner without thinking of the possible consequences of such diatribes. Some of those personalities were being changed into fictional characters to a certain point, perhaps even parodic – products of their own verbiage: Largo Caballero into a “Madrid Lenin”, Gil Robles into a “Spanish Mussolini”, José Antonio into an “out‑and‑out fascist”. The power of the propaganda word, which is often underestimated and which can cause real disasters simply because the speakers, powered by the energy of an excited crowd, do not know when to stop, will be highlighted. How some terms, for example “anti‑Spain”, can carry so much explosive and destructive cargo that their widespread use can lead almost inevitably to a conflict of unexpected dimen- sions, in our case the Spanish Civil War, will be shown.

  • Fragmented Autobiographies: a Style of Writing Or Self-Perception? the Case of Pilar Primo De Rivera
    Rev9-01 26/2/03 18:54 Página 37 Inbal Ofer* ➲ Fragmented Autobiographies: a Style of Writing or Self-Perception? The Case of Pilar Primo de Rivera Summary: Recently published contributions to theories of literary criticism have revea- led the richness and distinctiveness of women’s autobiographical production, greatly advancing research by tracing apparently similar linguistic and literary phenomena which seemed to rupture the “traditional” genre of men’ autobiographical writings. But at the same time they once again simplified the complex reality which lay behind such pheno- mena by attributing them mostly to the general condition of women’s self-perception as subjects, at times losing sight of the specific historical and cultural conditions in which each process of self-representation was grounded. In the paper that follows I will examine such points of rupture and contradiction in the autobiography of Pilar Primo de Rivera, Jefe Nacional of the Feminine Section of the Spanish Falange. By locating the differing discourses of identity with which Primo de Rivera engaged, and by finding out how exactly the category of gender operated in each of them, I will try to understand the nature of such ruptures, as well as the relation betwe- en the author’s self-perceptions and her techniques of self-representation. Introduction My first encounter with the autobiography of Pilar Primo de Rivera (1983), Jefe Nacional of the Sección Femenina de la FET (henceforth SF), took place almost three years ago, when I was starting to look into the way political and gendered self-percep- tions of SF members were reflected in the rhetoric of the organization’s national leaders- hip.

  • Casanova, Julían, the Spanish Republic and Civil
    This page intentionally left blank The Spanish Republic and Civil War The Spanish Civil War has gone down in history for the horrific violence that it generated. The climate of euphoria and hope that greeted the over- throw of the Spanish monarchy was utterly transformed just five years later by a cruel and destructive civil war. Here, Julián Casanova, one of Spain’s leading historians, offers a magisterial new account of this crit- ical period in Spanish history. He exposes the ways in which the Republic brought into the open simmering tensions between Catholics and hard- line anticlericalists, bosses and workers, Church and State, order and revolution. In 1936, these conflicts tipped over into the sacas, paseos and mass killings that are still passionately debated today. The book also explores the decisive role of the international instability of the 1930s in the duration and outcome of the conflict. Franco’s victory was in the end a victory for Hitler and Mussolini, and for dictatorship over democracy. julián casanova is Professor of Contemporary History at the University of Zaragoza, Spain. He is one of the leading experts on the Second Republic and the Spanish Civil War and has published widely in Spanish and in English.
