To Nation trough Class. The Socialist Electoral Campaign of November 1933
Abstract
The article deals with electoral campaign carried out by the Spanish Socialist Party for the general elections of November 1933. Starting from the importance that the new socio-cultural and political history attributed to the discourses in shaping identities and collective action, the article attempts to show the capital importance that the use of the national narrative had for socialism. In addition, by doing so, the article tries to draw attention to a central procedure in (re) construction and social dissemination of Spanish national identity, besides the processes of politicization and the role that socialism could play on it.
