The Francoist Military Trials

Meer over het boek

The book presents a compelling argument against the notion that the Franco regime merely imposed a police state on a passive society. Instead, it reveals how local officials and regime supporters collaborated to create a robust system of repression, actively targeting various societal elements. This analysis suggests that the regime's control and violence may have surpassed even that of the Nazis against their own citizens, highlighting the complexities of power dynamics within Spain during this period.
