Zusatztext 'Anderson's book is a brilliant exposition of Franco's social cleansing! focused on a case study.' - Jose M. Faraldo! Universidad Complutense de Madrid'This book! taken as a whole! and even though it does not explain military repression in Franco's Spain! is an invaluable work! one that must be consulted for any study of the issue. Anderson offers new venues and analysis that would certainly improve our understanding of the problem.' -Antonio Cazorla-Sánchez! Trent University Informationen zum Autor Peter Anderson is a British Academy Research Fellow in the Department of International History, London School of Economics. Klappentext Challenging the popularly prevalent view that the Franco regime imposed a police state upon a passive Spanish society, the evidence Anderson uncovers here illustrates that local state officials and members of the regime's support base together forged a powerful repressive system that allowed them to wage war on elements of their own society to a greater extent than perhaps even the Nazis managed against their own population. Zusammenfassung Exploring mass complicity in the trials of hundreds of thousands of defeated Republicans following the end of the Spanish Civil War, this book probes local Francoists' accusations whereby victims were selected for prosecution in military courts.
