In the first third of twentieth XX the rural societies of southern Spain evolves from tie political positions to the anarchism, made a slow but progressive attention towards the agrarian socialism. The persistence of the anarchism and the difficulties of implantation of the agrarian socialism contrast with the situation in countries of the Spanish surroundings, where, the socialism is certain well that with different levels from success according to the cases, it had been able to fit to excellent sectors of the rural society. The work that we propose analyzes for the case of Andalusia as the effects of substantial the agrarian transformations caused change in the labour conflict and as the evolution of this type of confliction ends up politically being translated, through a delayed but effective process of integration of the peasantry to the channel of the institutionalized mechanisms of participation in the political and electoral system in the crisis of the Spanish liberal monarchy; dynamics radically differentiated from the proposal antisystem of the anarchism, that conforms a route of learning and political socialization of rural means.

Fernando Furquim De Camargo : The Conservative Ideology of José Antonio Primo de Rivera 1931-1936
This paper examines the world’s view of José Antonio Primo de Rivera, the main leader and founder of Falange Española Tradicionalista between 1931 – when he begins his politics writings with the public defence of image and government of his father, the General Primo de Rivera – and 1936, the ...

This paper examines the world’s view of José Antonio Primo de Rivera, the main leader and founder of Falange Española Tradicionalista between 1931 – when he begins his politics writings with the public defence of image and government of his father, the General Primo de Rivera – and 1936, the year of his death in the republican’s prison of Alicante.
After the proclamation of Second Republic in Spain, there was the appearance of a multitude of parties in the intern political scenario, even with the great quantity of political positions, It’s undoubtedly the importance of the phalangist party and its principal leader during the republican period.
Hence, we preferred restricted our study to analyse the nexus of the ‘primorriveriano’ speech. The starting point to observe the Rivera’s ideology is his concept of Universal Spain. Within of this basilar idea, we are going to analyze his position on liberalism and communism; the role and consequences of the regionalists and separatists movements i.e., Catalonia and Basque Country; and the characteristics of economy to the development of Spain. The present work remarks his arguments on the construction of a Spain that should be a unitary country, proposing a regressive position based on an extreme nationalism through a return to the golden age of the Spanish history.

Andrew H. Lee, From Disaster To Democracy: Different Approaches To Spain, 1898-1975 : The Conscious Mother and The Natural Child in the Novelas of Federica Montseny
I propose to argue that the cultural work of the Spanish anarchist press, notably Generacion Consciente/Estuidos in Valencia and La Revista Blanca in Barcelona, laid much of the ground for the transformation — albeit brief —of gender relations in Spain during the Civil War.

I propose to argue that the cultural work of the Spanish anarchist press, notably Generacion Consciente/Estuidos in Valencia and La Revista Blanca in Barcelona, laid much of the ground for the transformation — albeit brief —of gender relations in Spain during the Civil War. I focus on the fiction of the Spanish anarchist Federica Montseny who in fifty novelas developed a series of number of female protagonists and orphaned children who represented an anarchist ideal of conscious motherhood and natural life. These novellas were part of an effort by anarchist cultural organs to create an imagined community. Montseny achieved this through an active career as a propagandist (often traveling with out a male chaperone) and a creator of fictional worlds. Portraying women who chose to have children not only outside of wedlock but frequently also with a male partner, she disseminating the ideology of voluntary childbearing, sexual freedom, and women’s emancipation, though bound up in maternalism. By featuring orphaned children who grew up outside of society’s boundaries and in a free environment, she was able to critique contemporary Spanish society as unnatural and restrictive, and show the harmful effects of false ideas of proper behavior and the often fatal results of attempts to force children to act contrary to their natural instincts. These themes in her work make Federica Montseny an important figure in understanding the gender relations in the social revolution of the summer and fall of 1936. (Show less)
