Through a combination of death squads and the use of military trials around 150,000 Spaniards met their deaths. Others perished in concentration camps and prisons. The terror took other forms, such as mass rape, extortion, "appropiation" of children and forced exile. The planned nature of this violence meant that the Francoists decided when the violence would begin, the way it would be carried out and when it would come to an end. This is a primary reason why the judicial concept of genocidal practice, alongside the use of comparative history, can furnish insights. The July 1936 uprising was not only aimed at ending the Republican regime, but had ideological goals: preventing the supposed Bolshevik Revolution, defending the 'unity of Spain' and reversing center-left social and cultural reforms. An over-arching objective was the elimination of a social group identified as 'an enemy of Spain' - a group defined as: not Catholic, not Spanish, not traditional. The genocidal intent of the coup via access to state resources, their monopoly of force in some territories and their subsequent victory ensured that the practice of genocide could be realized in the whole Spanish territory, permitting the hegemonic nature of the denialist discourse surrounding these crimes. Public debate over Francosim brings with it substantive disagreements. The Genocidal Genealogy of Francoism engages with the root causes of these disagreements"--Provided by publisher.Cañada Blanch/Sussex Academic studies on contemporary Spain.FrancoismHistoriographyPolitical violenceSpainHistoryPolitical persecutionSpainHistoryCollective memorySpainHistoryGenocideHistorySpainHistoryCivil War, 1936-1939HistoriographySpainHistoryCivil War, 1936-1939AtrocitiesSpainHistoryCivil War, 1936-1939Psychological aspectsFrancoismHistoriography.Political violenceHistory.Political persecutionHistory.Collective memoryHistory.GenocideHistory.946.081/1HIS045000POL042030bisacshMíguez Macho Antonio1540389MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797931703321The genocidal genealogy of Francoism3792016UNINA03033oam 2200397z- 450 991015742870332120160220091117.097807456876500745687652(CKB)3810000000069026(VLeBooks)9780745687650(Perlego)1535924(EXLCZ)99381000000006902620200821d2015 uy |engtxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Cunning of UncertaintyPolity1 online resource (190 p.)9780745687629 0745687628 9780745687612 074568761X Uncertainty is interwoven into human existence. It is a powerful incentive in the search for knowledge and an inherent component of scientific research. We have developed many ways of coping with uncertainty. We make promises, manage risks and make predictions to try to clear the mists and predict ahead. But the future is inherently uncertain - and the mist that shrouds our path an inherent part of our journey. The burning question is whether our societies can face up to uncertainty, learn to embrace it and whether we can open up to a constantly evolving future. In this new book, Helga Nowotny shows how research can thrive at the cusp of uncertainty.  Science, she argues, can eventually transform uncertainty into certainty, but into certainty which remains always provisional. Uncertainty is never completely static.  It is constantly evolving. It encompasses geological time scales and, at the level of human experience, split-second changes as cells divide. Life and death decisions are taken in the blink of the eye, while human interactions with the natural environment may reveal their impact over millennia. Uncertainty is cunning. It appears at unexpected moments, it shuns the straight line, takes the oblique route and sometimes the unexpected short-cut. As we acknowledge the cunning of uncertainty, its threats retreat. We accept that any scientific inquiry must produce results that are provisional and uncertain. This message is vital for politicians and policy-makers: do not be tempted by small, short-term, controllable gains to the exclusion of uncertain, high-gain opportunities. Wide-ranging in its use of examples and enriched by the author's experience as President of the European Research Council, one of the world's leading funding organisations for fundamental research. The Cunning of Uncertainty is a must-read for students and scholars of all disciplines, politicians, policy-makers and anyone concerned with the fundamental role of knowledge and science in our societies today.Prediction (Logic)UncertaintyPrediction (Logic)Uncertainty.121.63Nowotny Helga128519BOOK9910157428703321Cunning of uncertainty1471998UNINA
