Mexico and the Spanish Civil War: Domestic Politics and the Republican Cause: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Mexico and the Spanish Civil War: Domestic Politics and the Republican Cause" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
Based on first-hand diplomatic, political and journalistic sources, most unpublished, Mexico and the Spanish Civil War investigates the backing of the Second Republic by Mexico during the Spanish Civil War. Significant military, material and financial aid was given by the government of Lazaro Cardenas (1934-1940) to the Republic, which involved not only direct sales of arms, but also smuggling operations covertly undertaken by Mexican diplomatic agents in order to circumvent the embargo imposed by the London Committee of Non Intervention. This path-breaking account reveals the operations in Spain of Mexican workers, soldiers, artists and intellectuals - such as later Nobel Laureate Octavio Paz and the Muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros - as volunteers and propagandists for the Republican cause. Engagement with the Spanish Civil War also had a profound impact upon Mexicos domestic politics as support for the Republic was equated by Cardenas with his own revolutionary project. The defeat of the Republic in 1939 therefore had far-reaching repercussions for the post-1940 governments. Originally published to critical acclaim in Spanish, the work has been quoted and reviewed by many leading specialists on the Civil War, including Anthony Beevor, angel Vinas, Santos Julia, and Pedro Perez Herrero. This book is essential reading for students and scholars specializing in contemporary European history and politics, Latin American studies, and all those with an interest in the Spanish Civil War and the Mexican Revolution.

Largely ignored as a peripheral power, Mexico nevertheless did much in political, military, and diplomatic terms to abet the republican cause. Mario Ojeda-Revahs extensively researched Mexico and the Spanish Civil War does a great deal to rectify the historiographical balance. Not only does he reassess the nature and scale of Mexicos assistance, but he also reexamines the motives that lay behind it. The result is a rounded and credible portrait of Mexicos involvement in the Spanish Civil War that constitutes a notable contribution to our understanding of the conflict. From the Series Editors Preface by Nigel Townson
Based on first-hand diplomatic, political and journalistic sources, most unpublished, Mexico and the Spanish Civil War investigates the backing of the Second Republic by Mexico during the Spanish Civil War. Significant military, material and financial aid was given by the government of Lzaro Crdenas (19341940) to the Republic, which involved not only direct sales of arms, but also smuggling operations covertly undertaken by Mexican diplomatic agents in order to circumvent the embargo imposed by the London Committee of Non-Intervention.
This path-breaking account reveals the operations in Spain of Mexican workers, soldiers, artists and intellectuals such as later Nobel Laureate Octavio Paz and the Muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros as volunteers and propagandists for the Republican cause. Engagement with the Spanish Civil War also had a profound impact upon Mexicos domestic politics as support for the Republic was equated by Crdenas with his own revolutionary project. The defeat of the Republic in 1939 therefore had far-reaching repercussions for the post-1940 governments. Originally published to critical acclaim in Spanish, the work has been quoted and reviewed by many leading specialists on the Civil War, including Anthony Beevor, ngel Vias, Santos Juli, and Pedro Prez Herrero. This book is essential reading for students and scholars specializing in contemporary European history and politics, Latin American studies, and all those with an interest in the Spanish Civil War and the Mexican Revolution.

Few conflagrations of the twentieth century have been so exhaustively studied as the Spanish Civil War, but there nonetheless remain a good many aspects of the conflict that have been subjected to limited or nonexistent research. A great deal has been published on the international dimensions of the war, whether it be the Non-Intervention Committee, the participation of Nazi Germany and fascist Italy on the side of the insurgents, or the backing of the Soviet Union for the Second Republic. Yet little has been published on the Republics most steadfast ally: Mexico. Largely ignored as a peripheral power, Mexico nevertheless did much in political, military, and diplomatic terms to abet the republican cause. Mario Ojeda Revahs extensively researched
