«La Segunda República Española» is the historical essay by Pío Moa, published by La Esfera de los Libros in 2020, in hardback, 408 pages, in Spanish.
Pío Moa analyses the birth, evolution and destruction of the Second Spanish Republic between 1931 and 1936, asking whether it was an outburst of freedom and culture frustrated by reactionary classes or a regime of arbitrariness that led to civil war. To this end, he examines the writings of protagonists such as Azaña, Alcalá-Zamora, Lerroux and Gil-Robles, and defends free intellectual debate against totalitarian impositions.
The work belongs to the Historia del siglo XX collection, reaches its sixth edition and includes references to the government, politics and history of Spain in the period.
Recommended for readers interested in the contemporary history of Spain and in the historiographical debate on the Second Republic.
