Topic: Spanish general election, 1977


  
  Election Resources on the Internet: Elections to the Spanish Congress of Deputies
A decisive factor in the election was the split of the center-right electorate between the PP and the PAR, which allowed the Socialists to prevail in all three constituencies.
In the 1993 general election in Madrid, this legal requirement resulted in the exclusion of the Social Democratic Center (CDS) ticket from the constituency apportionment process, as the party - which lost all its seats in the election - fell 438 votes short of the three percent threshold.
This system was drastically altered by the 1982 elections, in which the Socialists, led by Felipe González, won a sweeping victory with 202 seats in Congress, out of 350; AP became the major opposition party, while the UCD collapsed; the PCE also lost considerable ground in the election.

 Election of 30N - 35
The election of 30N, as it became known, was quickly recognized as the most unpredictable since those of 1977 and it was widely believed that the results would change the face of politics in the Basque Country.
During the elections of 30N, each Basque nationalist party portrayed Madrid as the common enemy while attempting to arrogate to itself the mantel of leadership of the Basque cause.
The Spanish parties do not believe that the document compels the Spanish government to remove the Spanish Guardia Civil and the National Police from the area, but rather requires them to coordinate their efforts with the Basque Police.

 Robert Graham on Proudhon
The General Idea of the Revolution in the Nineteenth Century is one of the classics of anarchist literature.[1] Written in the aftermath of the 1848 French Revolution, it sets forth a libertarian alternative to the Jacobinism which at that time still dominated the republican and revolutionary movements in France.
Thus, it is the general idea of Proudhon’s revolution, as it were, and not his specific proposals and criticisms, which remains relevant today.
In General Idea of the Revolution, it is the principle of association conceived as an end in itself, rather than as a necessary means to individual liberty, which is the focus of Proudhon’s criticisms.

 The Spanish Civil War: An Overview--by Cary Nelson
Viewed internally, on the other hand, the Spanish Civil War was the culmination of a prolonged period of national political unrest—unrest in a country that was increasingly polarized and repeatedly unable to ameliorate the conditions of terrible poverty in which millions of its citizens lived.
That left the rebel generals in serious difficulty, for their best troops, the Army of Africa, were in Morocco with no means of transport to the mainland.
Like the perspective of Spanish soldiers in the field, the Lincolns' view of the war was thus quite different from that of those Spanish nationals who were occupied with political struggles in Madrid and Barcelona.
