Resumen de Iberian anarchism in twentieth-century history

Joshua Newmark, Sophie Turbutt

• This essay introduces a Special Issue exploring the history of Iberian anarchism in the twentieth century. It highlights the paucity of research on Portuguese anarchism in general, and argues that the well-established field of Spanish anarchist history can profit from greater insight into the development of anarchism in Iberia as a whole. The essay then showcases the five articles which comprise the Special Issue, drawing particular attention to their methodological contributions in fields such as urban space, biography, and transnationality and how these can help to recover historical perspectives marginalised by incomplete narratives.
