Je me dis que cela ne peut pas mourir. Les petits enfants qui seront des gar- çons de vingt ans, plus tard, apprendront avec un sombre émerveillement l’existence de cette exaltation de millions d’hommes, les camps de jeunesse, la gloire du passé, les défilés, les cathédrales de lumière, les héros frappés au com- bat, l’amitié entre jeunesses de toutes les nations réveillées, José Antonio, le fascisme immense et rouge. Et je sais bien que le communisme a lui aussi sa grandeur, pareillement exaltante. Peut-être même dans mille ans confondra-t-on les deux Révolutions du XXe siècle ; je ne sais pas. Dans la Révolution fasciste, on m’accordera que la nation a eu sa place plus violente, plus marquée, et c’est aussi une poésie que la nation. Tout cela peut être vaincu par le libéralisme apparent, le capitalisme anglo-saxon, cela ne mourra pas plus que la Révolution de 89 n’est morte au XIXe siècle malgré le retour des rois. Et moi qui ces derniers mois me suis si fortement méfié de tant d’erreurs du fascisme italien, du nationalisme allemand, du phalangisme espagnol, je ne puis dire que je pourrai jamais oublier le rayonnement merveilleux du fascisme universel de ma jeunesse, le fas- cisme, notre mal du siècle.

The research makes mostly use of original sources, both archival and printed, with the help of press and previous studies, in order to reconstruct and discuss historical events and ideological standpoints in Cuba, in the time that goes from Machado’s dictatorship to Castro’s Revolution. To this extent, a clarification on the too often mistaken concept of fascism, in the light of scientific literature, is nec- essary. Fascism as a modern 20th-century ideology, strongly opposed and reactive to liberalism and communism, advo- cated a radical inter-class mobilization and rebirth of the nation, in militaristic and organicistic sense, under a total- itarian revolutionary single party or movement headed by a charismatic leader. Inside fascism, four main trends can be distinguished, according to different conceptions of na- tion: classical Fascism, National Socialism, Integrism and Falangism. In the ‘30s, due to the crisis of Liberalism and the advance of Communism, Fascism had become a viable ideological alternative in many undeveloped countries, even outside Europe. This was especially true in Latin America, where European fascist regimes created local sections of the ruling party to cater with the large immigrant communities (espe- cially Italians, Germans and Spaniards). This fascist influence, with its revolutionary nationalism, was strong on local na- tionalist forces, which struggled for national sovereignty and economic independence from colonial powers. These founded native fascist and populist groups, with the support of lower and middle classes. At the same time, the socioeconomic and political situa- tion in Cuba was not exceptional in comparison with other Latin American countries. In 1933, Machado’s dictatorship was brought to an end by a heterogeneous coalition of po- litical forces. After a convulse phase of struggle, power was assumed by Fulgencio Batista who controlled Cuba, either i i i i i “thesis” — 2018/6/5 — 9:19 — page 2 — #10 i i i Contents directly or indirectly, until 1944. This long period, marked by the emergence of social mass movements and the relative decline of the old political class of independence veterans, was crucial for the development of new Cuban nationalism, which had to cope with United States influence and Batista’s strategy to preserve his personal authority. In the core part of the thesis, nationalist people and groups in Cuba are examined and analysed to ascertain their ideological and political relationships with fascism. The Cuban conservative Right is explored through the study of three important figures: the authoritarian writer Alberto Lamar, apologist of Machado’s rule, the aviation hero Agustín Parlá and the journalist José Ignacio Rivero, a great sponsor of Francoism in Cuba.

    Die Falange Española und ihr Gründer José Antonio Primo de Rivera (1903-1936) - im Rahmen der Bewältigung der Vergangenheit der Zweiten Spanischen Republik (1931-1939) Frank Peter Geinitz Dissertation an der Sozialwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München vorgelegt von Frank Peter Geinitz aus Chemnitz München, den 5. Mai 2008 Meinen Eltern Erich und Ingeborg Erstgutachter : Professor Dr. Tilman Mayer, Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms- Universität Bonn, Seminar für Politische Wissenschaft Zweitgutachter: Professor Dr. Martin Baumeister, LMU München, Historisches Seminar, Abt. Neueste Geschichte und Zeitgeschichte Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: Mittwoch, 27. Juni 2007 II Vorwort „Ohne Erinnerung keine Versöhnung“ „Ohne Gerechtigkeit kein Frieden“1 Wer ist dieser José Antonio Primo de Rivera, der ein im Chaos versinkendes Spanien retten möchte und dabei sein Leben aufs Spiel setzt? Ist dieser Adlige aus bestem Hause der geeignete und charismatische Anführer, der diesem Land in Zeiten großer politischer und sozialer Not den Weg zu einem ‚Neuen’ Staat, zu neuer Identität weisen kann? Warum das Interesse, 70 Jahre nach dem Tod des Gründers der politischen Bewegung Falange Española , eine Studie über ein anscheinend abgeschlossenes Thema aus der mit Abstand unglücklichsten Epoche der spanischen Geschichte anzufertigen? Es beruht schlicht und einfach auf dem Verlangen, dazu beizutragen, das damalige Geschehen mit den bestehenden Gegensätzen aufzugreifen, zu durchleuchten und, aus einem neuen Blickwinkel heraus, eine neutrale Wertung zur historischen Rolle der Falange Española und ihrer Führerpersönlichkeit hinzuzufügen. Denn die betreffende Epoche - die 30er Jahre des 20. Jahrhunderts - ist bis heute nicht hinreichend aufgearbeitet. Das Projekt wird ganz bewußt unter die eingangs genannten Mottos gestellt; beide sind für die Bewältigung jener tragischen Jahre der spanischen Geschichte gute ‚Leitbilder’.

Miguel Madueño Álvarez Licenciado en Historia (UNED), Especialista en Historia Militar (IUGM), Máster en la España Contemporánea en el Contexto Internacional (UNED) (España). Resumen : Durante la Transición española, el falangismo era una ideología que aún agrupaba a un importante número de simpatizantes. En un momento de cambio como aquel, en el que la política española experimentó el mayor auge de partidos políticos del siglo XX, se dio al tiempo una polarización de la política que dejó en el olvido numerosas ideas y programas de gran interés. Una de aquellas ideologías fue el falangismo, dispuesto a la construcción de una España fuerte y con un destino común. Ideas que apostaban por el republicanismo, por el nacionalsindicalismo como modelo económico y por una unidad territorial común a todos los españoles como medios para poder integrarse en el inminente sistema democrático. Una idea de España que no penetró en los españoles y que no fue votada, lo que condujo al fracaso del falangismo y de las ideas defendidas por los seguidores de José Antonio Primo de Rivera. Palabras Clave: Falangismo- Transición- España- Franquismo- nacionalsindicalismo Abstract: During the Spanish Transition, Falangism was an ideology that had a great number of sympathizers.
