An estimated 88,000 unidentified victims of Francoist violence remain to be exhumed from mass graves and given a dignified burial, and for decades, the history of these victims has also been buried. This volume brings together a range of Spanish and British specialists who offer an original and challenging overview of this violence. Contributors not only examine the mass killings and incarcerations, but also carefully consider how the repression carried out in the government zone during the Civil War--long misrepresented in Francoist accounts--seeped into everyday life. A final section explores ways of facing Spain's recent violent past"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record Subject Franco, Francisco, 1892-1975 -- Influence SUBJECT Franco, Francisco, 1892-1975 fast Subject State-sponsored terrorism -- Spain -- History -- 20th century Political persecution -- Spain -- History -- 20th century Political violence -- Spain -- History -- 20th century Mass murder -- Spain -- History -- 20th century Francoism -- History HISTORY -- Europe -- Spain & Portugal.
