Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book deals with one of most controversial issues of the Spanish Civil War (1936-9): the 'Red Terror'. Approximately 50,000 Spaniards were extrajudicially executed in Republican Spain following the failure of the military rebellion in July 1936. This mass killing of 'fascists' seriously undermined attempts by the legally constituted Republican government to present itself in foreign quarters as fighting a war for democracy. This study, based on a wealth of scholarship and archival sources, challenges the common view that executions were the work of criminal or anarchist 'uncontrollables'. Its focus is on Madrid, which witnessed at least 8,000 executions in 1936. It shows that the terror was organized and was carried out with the complicity of the police, and argues that terror was seen as integral to the antifascist war effort. Indeed, the elimination of the internal enemy - the 'Fifth Column' - was regarded as important as the war on the front line. This study challenges the common view that extrajudicial executions in Republican Spain in July 1936 were the work of criminal or anarchist 'uncontrollables'.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. A Antonio Cánovas del Castillo (1828-1897) se le considera todavía hoy el político más importante de la historia de España contemporánea. Varias veces presidente del Gobierno, fue el artífice de la refundación y consolidación de la Monarquía liberal a partir de 1874. Historiador y teórico de la política, Cánovas del Castillo es además un referente fundamental del pensamiento liberal y conservador español. Este volumen es una aproximación biográfica al personaje a partir de las nuevas aportaciones que se han realizado desde el centenario de su fallecimiento, y abarca su ejecutoria como ministro de Isabel II hasta su último y difícil gobierno, con la guerra de Cuba al fondo y que le costaría su asesinato a manos de un anarquista. Monarquía y liberalismo fueron los dos principios por los que Cánovas abogó toda su vida: «Entiendo la Monarquía como la base de la libertad, y como la base entre nosotros de todas las conquistas de la civilización moderna». *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. ¿Cuál fue el papel de los tribunales populares? ¿Quiénes fueron los verdaderos responsables del terror? ¿Existió realmente una quinta columna? ¿Qué sucedió en Paracuellos? Julius Ruiz plantea en El terror rojo la superación de los términos habituales en un debate que, tradicionalmente, ha entendido la represión en el bando republicano tras el estallido de la Guerra Civil como el fruto de la reacción popular descontrolada de unos cuantos ante el golpe militar del 18 de Julio. Por el contrario, sostiene el autor, cabe hablar de continuidad entre esta actividad represiva arbitraria inicial y la persecución institucionalizada contra los enemigos de la República, a partir de 1937. Gran parte del material que ha servido para la redacción de El terror rojo, fruto de una exhaustiva labor de investigación por parte de su autor en fuentes y archivos españoles y del Reino Unido, es inédito. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condition: New. This book examines the most polemical atrocity of the Spanish Civil War: the massacre of 2,500 political prisoners by Republican security forces in the villages of Paracuellos and Torrejâon de Ardoz near Madrid in November/December 1936. The atrocity took place while Santiago Carrillo -- later Communist Party leader in the 1970s -- was responsible for public order. Although Carrillo played a key role in the transition to democracy after Franco's death in 1975, he passed away at the age of 97 in 2012 still denying any involvement in 'Paracuellos' (the generic term for the massacres). The issue of Carrillo's responsibility has been the focus of much historical research. Julius Ruiz places Paracuellos in the wider context of the 'Red Terror' in Madrid, where a minimum of 8,000 'fascists' were murdered after the failure of military rebellion in July 1936. He rejects both 'revisionist' right-wing writers such as Cesar Vidal who cite Paracuellos as evidence that the Republic committed Soviet-style genocide and left-wing historians such as Paul Preston, who in his Spanish Holocaust argues that the massacres were primarily the responsibility of the Soviet secret police, the NKVD. The book argues that Republican actions influenced the Soviets, not the other way round: Paracuellos intensified Stalin's fears of a 'Fifth Column' within the USSR that facilitated the Great Terror of 1937-38. It concludes that the perpetrators were primarily members of the Provincial Committee of Public Investigation (CPIP), a murderous all-leftist revolutionary tribunal created in August 1936, and that its work of eliminating the 'Fifth Column' (an imaginary clandestine Francoist organisation) was supported not just by Carrillo, but also by the Republican government. In Autumn 2015 the book was serialised in El Mundo, Spain's second largest selling daily, to great acclaim.

Un colosal ensayo sobre la lucha de la policía secreta republicana contra la quinta columna.La guerra sucia aborda por primera vez la historia completa de la lucha que la policía secreta republicana libró durante la Guerra Civil española contra el enemigo interior, o quinta columna. Tras más de diez años de investigación en archivos españoles y extranjeros, Julius Ruiz desmenuza la naturaleza y composición de los organismos creados a tal efecto, entre ellos el Servicio de Inteligencia Militar (SIM). Dirigidos por socialistas y comunistas, buscaron sin piedad no solo a simpatizantes franquistas clandestinos, sino también a trotskistas y otros enemigos de izquierdas, y no dudaron en utilizar la tortura física y mental para extraer información de los sospechosos.
