Showing results for "Europes" in Fascism

En unos tiempos en que ha vuelto a hacer acto de presencia una profunda crispación política, y a solo una década de que España conmemore el inicio del mayor drama de nuestra historia contemporánea, la pregunta sobre qué queremos hacer con el recuerdo de la Guerra Civil no sólo es pertinente sino especialmente relevante. Este ensayo ha sido concebido con un triple objetivo. Primero, fomentar un debate social respecto no sólo a un pasado cada vez más remoto, sino a un futuro en el que definitivamente la negra sombra de la Guerra Civil pueda desaparecer.

Edda Mussolini was Benito's favourite daughter: spoilt, venal, uneducated but clever, faithless but flamboyant, a brilliant diplomat, wild but brave and ultimately strong and loyal. She was her father's confidante during the 20 years of Fascist rule, acting as envoy to both Germany and Britain, and playing a part in steering Italy to join forces with Hitler. From her early 20s, she was effectively first lady of Italy. She married Galeazzo Ciano, who would become the youngest foreign secretary in Italian history.

1871 wurde im Spiegelsaal von Versailles das Deutsche Kaiserreich gegründet. 1918 ging es mit der Niederlage im Ersten Weltkrieg unter. Prägnant und anschaulich führt Christoph Nonn in ein halbes Jahrhundert deutscher Geschichte ein und hinterfragt die gängigen Deutungen dieser umstrittenen Epoche.

Charlotte Beradt began having unsettling dreams after Adolf Hitler took power in 1933. She envisioned herself being shot at, tortured and scalped, surrounded by Nazis in disguise, and breathlessly fleeing across fields with storm troopers at her heels. Shaken by these nightmares and banned as a Jew from working, she began secretly collecting dreams from her friends and neighbors, both Jewish and non-Jewish. Disguising these "diaries of the night" in code and concealing them in the spines of books from her extensive library, she smuggled them out of the country one by one.

Mit detektivischem Spürsinn wird in diesem Buch die Lebensgeschichte der Frau an Hitlers Seite rekonstruiert, die aus einem kleinbürgerlichen Haushalt bis in den inneren Zirkel des NS-Machthabers führte und einen Tag nach der Hochzeit im Berliner «Führerbunker» mit dem gemeinsamen Selbstmord am 30. April 1945 endete. Welche Rolle spielte die Geliebte in Hitlers privatem Kreis? Über wie viel Einfluss verfügte sie? Und was wussten sie und die anderen Frauen der NS-Führer über die Verbrechen ihrer Männer?

¿Sabía que la Alemania nazi fue pionera en legislar en favor del ecologismo y los derechos de los animales?, ¿o que su origen está estrechamente vinculado a las vanguardias artísticas?, ¿que el British Union of Fascists fue el primer partido británico que tuvo un 10% de militancia femenina? ¿Y que trató de aunar las reivindicaciones sociales con la Tercera Posición? En torno al término fascismo se han alimentado las más variadas opiniones y definiciones por lo que siempre es objeto de debate en las ciencias políticas pero, ¿realmente sabemos lo que es?

La obra fundamental sobre el origen, expansión y caída del movimiento fascista en el siglo XX. El atractivo estético del fascismo italiano llegó a asimilarlo a las vanguardias de principios del siglo XX. Como todo nacionalismo, fue vivido por sus seguidores como una religión secular, procedente del socialismo izquierdista pero a la vez con claros antecedentes derechistas. El estudio del fascismo, de su estética, de su lenguaje, de su poder de sugestión, no ha perdido actualidad y sigue atrayendo el interés de numerosos historiadores.

¿Estuvo implicado Alfonso XIII en el golpe de Estado de 1923?, ¿se produjeron mejoras sociales y económicas? ¿Dimitió voluntariamente Primo de Rivera? (tag de abajo) Los seis años que abarca la dictadura de Miguel Primo de Rivera (1923-1930) supone uno de los periodos de la historia de España menos conocidos, quizás, porque no pocos historiadores la han calificado como un paréntesis vacío dentro de la Restauración borbónica. Hoy sabemos que, en absoluto, fue un hombre campechano sin ideología.

Quando Mussolini tiene il primo discorso alla Camera da Capo del Consiglio, dopo la Marcia su Roma (è il 16 novembre 1922, la Marcia ha avuto luogo tra il 28 e il 31 del mese precedente), Emilio Lussu, deputato del Partito Sardo d'Azione, è in ospedale a Cagliari, vittima di un'aggressione fascista, ma riesce ugualmente a fornirne un resoconto illuminante. Mussolini può ormai giocare coi parlamentari come il gatto con il topo: li può calpestare con una sola zampata, e lo dice loro, ma può anche non farlo, se essi saranno buoni. Molti in effetti lo saranno.

Cosa si puo dire di Benito Mussolini che non sia gia stato detto? È possibile raccontare la sua parabola politica, dagli esordi come socialista e anarchico alla sua trasformazione in accanito interventista, dalla costituzione dei Fasci di combattimento alla tragica evoluzione in dittatore e all'epilogo in piazzale Loreto? Marco Lucchetti - esperto di storia militare - analizza, attraverso 101 episodi più o meno noti della vita del duce, non soltanto la sua vicenda personale, ma anche le radicali trasformazioni subite dall'Italia durante il Ventennio.

In this powerful audiobook, first published in 1943, Amy Buller recounts the hopes and fears of Germans engulfed in the rise of fascism during the 1930s. During the years leading up to the outbreak of war, Buller defied her critics and social norms by leading delegations of British intelligentsia to Germany to learn about and confront the appeal of the Nazis.

Dopo oltre settant'anni dalla caduta del fascismo, mai come ora l'idra risolleva la testa, soprattutto su Internet, ma non solo. Frasi ripetute a mo' di barzelletta per anni, che parevano innocue e risibili fino a non molto tempo fa, si stanno sempre più facendo largo in Italia con tutt'altro obiettivo. E fanno presa. La storiografia ha indagato il fascismo e la figura di Mussolini in tutti i suoi dettagli e continua a farlo. Il quadro che è stato tracciato dalla grande maggioranza degli studiosi è quello di un regime dispotico, violento, miope e perlopiù incapace.

Was World War II really the 'Good War'? In the years since the declaration of peace in 1945, many myths have sprung up around the conflict in the victorious nations. In this audiobook, Peter Hitchens deconstructs the many fables which have become associated with the narrative of the 'Good War'. Whilst not criticising or doubting the need for war against Nazi Germany at some stage, Hitchens does query whether September 1939 was the right moment or the independence of Poland the right issue.

Here is Fast’s powerful denunciation of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco, and a remarkable historical document of Spain’s fight for freedom from governmental oppression. Howard Fast was a longtime proponent of the antifascist movement in Spain. During the Spanish Civil War, Fast supported a hospital for Popular Front forces, and in 1950 he was sentenced to three months in jail for refusing to give the names of other supporters of that hospital to the House Un-American Activities Committee.
