This volume offers a broad overview of the conditions, motives, and practices of violence during the most prominent intra‑state conflicts in Europe during the first half of the 20th century.This book seeks to move beyond accounts of civil war violence that focus on microlevel motives or grand cleavages, arguing instead that violence is best examined as a multidimensional phenomenon involving a range of structural, personal, and conjectural factors operating at various levels of societal interaction. Making a case for methodological pluralism, the volume brings together an interdisciplinary team of historians and social scientists to address the aspects of civil war violence from a broad range of empirical and methodological perspectives. The book consists of three thematic sections. The first section covers contextual issues related to civil war violence, including the role of ideology and social dynamics. The second and third sections comprise empirical case studies that examine the dimensions of violence in six prominent European civil wars. The volume focuses on these particular conflicts because they are almost universally recognized as instances of civil war, and this enables the volume to maintain its analytical focus on the dynamics of violence.This book will be of much interest to students of European history, civil wars, political violence, and International Relations in general.Chapter 8 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

The July 1936 coup d'tat against the Spanish Second Republic brought together a diversity of anti-Republican political and social groups under the leadership of rebel Africanista military officers. In the ensuing Civil War this coalition gradually came under the rule of Generalissimo Franco. This volume explores the hypothesis that the violence and combat experiences of the war were the fundamental ideological crucible for the Francoist regime. The rebels were a group of reactionary and anti-liberal forces with little ideological or political coherence, but they emerged from the conflict not only victorious but ideologically united under the dictator's power. Key to understanding this transition are the different political cultures of the rebel army, how the combatants' war experiences contributed to the transformation of diverse rebel groups, and the role of foreign armed intervention. The contributors examine not only the endogenous Spanish political and military cultures of the Francoist coalition, but also the transnational influence of foreign groups. The roots of Francoist political culture are found in the Falangist and Carlist militias, and Civil Guard units, that lent their support to the military rebellion. The war experiences of conscripts, colonial troops, and junior officers forged the Francoist ideology. It was reinforced by fascist influences and assistance from Germany and Italy, and the lesser-known contributions of Swiss and White Russian volunteers. At the beginning of the conflict the rebel side was not homogeneous. But it weaved together a complex, transnational web of political and military interests in the midst of a bloody and destructive war, transforming itself in the process to a political and dictatorial platform that was to rule Spain for many years.

The coup d'etat of July 1936 split Spain in two, shaping a chessboard of terror, misery and death that would put an end to the Republic and give sustenance to dictatorship. In the rebel territory, Franco's soldiers were often not convinced followers, but mere pawns forced to fight for the future of a Spain in which the only element of cohesion would be fear. The experience of the Spanish Civil War is defined by how the dictator placed citizens before a terrible dilemma: become executioners or die. This experience was not confined to Spain alone. A transnational analysis, hitherto never undertaken, puts the Spanish war experience in the context of the political and military dramas of the first half of the 20th century. Issues of recruitment, terror, and propaganda dominate analysis. But deeper social and indeed psychological issues are equally important in understanding how dictatorship can shape society for the worse, and indeed come to be regarded by the majority as the norm. Special attention is paid to military ethos at all levels of the armed forces. Francos Soldiers, originally published to acclaim in Spain, provides a unique literary platform that better allows the Spanish Civil War experience to be understood in a wide historical context, thus furthering and encouraging international debate. Published in collaboration with the Department of International History, London School of Economics.

This edited collection examines the violence experienced by non-combatants during the civil wars which took place in Europe in the first half of the twentieth century. The determinants of violence in civil wars are highly complex and variable. By focusing on both the victims and perpetrators of violence in eight European countries, including Russia, Ireland, France and Spain, the book explores what happened when differing groups within a polity clashed, and in which ways internal conflicts manifested themselves and permeated societies. Divided into two parts, the chapters firstly identify and analyse how rearguard violence was produced and exercised during the European civil wars, and secondly, they examine the violence perpetrated by, and against, women. Shedding light on the violence that was inflicted upon European civilians in the early- to mid-twentieth century, this book presents insights for historians of Europe, political scientists, and international relations scholars alike.

Aunque por el título pueda parecerlo, este no es un libro sobre la historia de Galicia. Es un libro hecho desde Galicia que versa sobre una forma violenta de tomar el poder para derribar una democracia pluripartidista en la Europa de los años treinta y que analiza cómo funcionó el cuarto de ensayo de una dictadura totalitaria que se consolidó en tiempos del fascismo. Como el franquismo fue el único régimen dictatorial salido de las cenizas de una guerra total, enmarcar estas singularidades en los procesos de su tiempo y contextualizarlas es fundamental para aspirar a abordar un estudio más amplio. Detrás del golpe podría decirse que hay mucha más acción militar que reacción política por el escaso peso social con el que contó. Pero la acción militar requirió la construcción de un proyecto político que, a medida que se dilató el golpe de estado y se convirtió en guerra, ya no pudo ser el especificado en las Instrucciones de Mola y su inconcreta dictadura republicana. Esta evolución tuvo su reflejo en los territorios que cayeron primero en poder de los golpistas. Sin entender cómo se desarrolló en estos territorios no podremos comprender la lógica de la dictadura impuesta en el resto del Estado. Un trabajo coral que pretende aportar una nueva perspectiva a la construcción del franquismo desde su origen –el golpe de Estado– y que incluye los territorios que cayeron en poder de los golpistas en julio de 1936, los cuales muy a menudo han quedado obviados del análisis historiográfico.

"Esta novedosa obra toma como referente el concepto unamuniano de intrahistoria y como base, se dedica en exclusiva a darle el protagonismo a la tropa que compuso el ejército sublevado de la guerra civil española de 1936, entendiendo a los individuos dentro de su complejidad para obtener conclusiones globales. Mediante un estudio sistemático de archivos militares y civiles, prensa, memorias y fuentes orales inéditas, muestra la veracidad del hecho de que ese ejército se formó por obligación, mediante un procedimiento de reclutamiento forzoso que afectó a varias generaciones, en contra de lo difundido por la propaganda franquista y que permaneció hasta nuestros días. Por lo general, eran personas normales, que no estaban comprometidas ideológicamente con el ideario golpista; eran hombres que vivían en una sociedad civil regida por las reglas sociales construidas desde comienzos del siglo XX, sin que existiese una confrontación con sus compatriotas. A partir del 18 de julio de 1936, vieron rotas aquellas normas sociales y sustituidas por el terror, la vigilancia, el castigo y la pobreza. Desde aquel momento, a una gran parte de esos hombres, no les quedó otro camino que vincularse a uno de los dos bandos para evitar la muerte; en el caso de este libro, al insurgente.Se trata de uno de los trabajos más novedosos y ambiciosos del momento, porque analiza la guerra con toda su crudeza, sin heroísmo, y único en poner el foco en las personas, en la captación obligada de combatientes, en cómo funcionaba el ejército franquista y en la experiencia de guerra y postguerra que padecieron. Además es ambicioso porque busca romper con muchos mitos e imágenes construidas interesadamente sobre el conflicto. Se imbrica dentro de la línea de los war studies internacionales y pone de manifiesto los cambios que una contienda introduce en la sociedad y en las personas. El propósito de su autor es dar a conocer esta realidad, oculta hasta ahora, a las personas interesadas en el pasado reciente español, para entender la historia en su complejidad y contribuir a superar las heridas y confiar en el futuro"

Sueñan los Nadies de la Guerra de España que algún día llueva de pronto el reconocimiento que merecen, pero ni en llovizna les cae del cielo. Por contra, la tormenta del olvido les sigue empapando. Por mucho que nos llamen, solo tienen por respuesta el silencio. Después de tres años de guerra y cuatro décadas de dictadura, no se cuestionaron los relatos de los grandes nombres, las inamovibles dicotomías y la eterna narración de las dos Españas fratricidas que se mataron a garrotazos. Más de cuarenta democráticos años después, y a pesar del esfuerzo de activistas e historiadores, los Nadies siguen sin ser alguien, y parece que para nuestra sociedad resulta más cómodo así: los Nadies valen menos que el consenso que los olvidó.Leira Castiñeira, en la presente obra, devuelve a los Nadies al lugar que les corresponde en las páginas de la Historia. Dando voz a María y Urania, a Juan, a Francisco y Dorinda… el autor nos muestra una época con muchas más aristas de lo que los relatos dominantes nos han legado.

El «No a la Guerra» inundó las calles y se desplegó en los balcones. Durante el primer trimestre de 2003, las capitales de nuestro país fueron testigos de repetidas manifestaciones en contra de la invasión de Iraq por parte de Estados Unidos, con la colaboración de Reino Unido y España, y en contra de las mentiras vertidas por los gobiernos de estos países. Pero ¿cómo se fue generando el pacifismo en nuestra contemporaneidad?Prestigiosos intelectuales de diversas disciplinas se han reunido para debatir sobre los conceptos que vertebran este libro: el antibelicismo, el antimilitarismo y el pacifismo. El objetivo es trazar una línea de continuidad en la formación del rechazo a la violencia en nuestra historia contemporánea, teniendo en cuenta los diversos contextos sociales, políticos y culturales. Desde los desertores de la Guerra de la Independencia, pasando por los prófugos de las Carlistas, el proceso de recluta forzosa de la Guerra Civil, los objetores de conciencia, el papel del feminismo y de las mujeres contra la violencia, el «Basta ya» a ETA o el movimiento anti-OTAN, hasta la condena a la invasión de Iraq, podremos desvelar cómo hemos construido ese sentimiento que nos llevó a gritar «No a la Guerra».
