  • More about Scots and the Spanish Civil War: Solidarity, Activism and Humanitarianism

Scots and the Spanish Civil War explores Scottish involvement in the conflict, drawing on newly-declassified documents and archives to shed light on Scottish politics in the 1930s and other mobilisations.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 232 pages
Publication date: 31 May 2022
Publisher: Edinburgh University Press

The Spanish Civil War (1936-9) was a pivotal event that inspired passion, determination, and sacrifice among people worldwide. This book explores the various ways in which Scots responded to the war in Spain, covering the activists and humanitarians who raised funds and awareness at home and the hundreds of Scots who journeyed to Spain to fight as part of the International Brigades. Their stories reflect larger narratives of European fascism, the networks and cultures of international communism, and the broader phenomenon of transnational foreign fighters. Scots and the Spanish Civil War is a groundbreaking study of Scottish involvement in one of the 20th century's most famous and divisive conflicts, drawing on newly-declassified government documents and international archives in Spain and beyond. As well as shedding new light on Scottish politics in the 1930s, Fraser Raeburn argues that this case study, part of the largest wave of foreign war volunteering in the 20th century, can help us understand other such mobilizations, past and present.
