Description
Disregarding Cambodia, Spain has the most anonymous mass graves in the world. They originate from the civil war between 1936 and 1939, which led to the dictatorship of Franco. However, it has not been dealt with the Franco regime’s felonies until today. Spain’s democracy was built seamlessly onto the foundations of the old terror regime. All court decisions from that time apply until today. Civil society organisations demand to deal with the past now – while right-wing extremists gather in the new VOX-party and glorify Franco.
Hannes Bahrmann, historian and expert on Spain, explains vividly Spain’s dramatic history from Franco’s coup in 1936 to the dictator’s death in 1975 until today. He thereby shows how strong the unresolved past burdens the democratic present.
