Description
Spanish Fascist Writing presents a unique collection of Spanish fascist texts in English translation, shedding new light on the intellectual and political history of fascism in Spain from the early twentieth century to the present.
This volume brings together manifestos, newspaper articles, essays, letters, and pieces of prose fiction that demonstrate why the Spanish case is crucial to understanding fascism worldwide. By examining these texts, readers can gain a deeper understanding of fascism's roots in colonialism, its multiple temporalities, and the rise of right-wing extremism globally.
By placing Spain at the forefront of fascist studies, this collection offers a fresh perspective on a significant period in modern history, highlighting the need for comparative analysis to grasp the transnational character of fascism. Spanish Fascist Writing is an essential resource for scholars and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of fascist ideology and its impact on world politics.
