Abstract

Dit boek gaat over kinderen in Sodan die verplicht worden om mee te vechten in een wrede oorlog. Op een dag ontvoert het rebellenleger van Kony de elfjarige Sam en zijn drie jaar oudere zus Agnes. Na een barre tocht zonder eten of drinken komen ze terecht in Soedan. Daar wordt Sam getraind om te vechten. Vluchten is de enige manier om aan de afschuwelijke levensomstandigheden te ontsnappen. Maar wie vlucht, riskeert de dood. Wanneer Sam tijdens een aanval gewond raakt, slaagt hij erin te ontsnappen aan het rebellenleger. In het opvangcentrum durft hij voorzichtig weer te geloven in een betere toekomst. Al heeft elk kind recht op bescherming tegen oorlog, dit bikkelharde boek is helaas gebaseerd op waar gebeurde feiten. Het nawoord is van Els De Temmerman die een opvangcentrum voor kindsoldaten oprichtte en zo het boek met een sprankel hoop laat eindigen.

Abstract

This book focuses on the short but crucial period that led to the collapse of the Spanish Republic and set the stage for the ensuing civil war. Stanley G. Payne, an internationally known scholar of modern Spanish history, details the political shifts that occurred from 1933 to 1936 and examines the actions and inactions of key actors during these years. Using their own memoirs, speeches, and declarations, he challenges previous perceptions of various major players, including President Alcalá Zamora. The breakdown of political coalitions and the internal rifts between Spain's bourgeois and labor classes sparked many instances of violent dissent in the mid-1930s. The book addresses the election of 1933 and the destabilizing insurrection that followed, Alcalá Zamora's failed attempts to control the major parties, and the backlash that resulted. The alliances of the socialist left with communism and the right with fascism are also explored, as is the role of forces outside Spain in spurring the violence that eventually exploded into war.

Abstract

This 2005 book explores the ideas and culture surrounding the cataclysmic civil war that engulfed Spain from 1936 to 1939. It features specially commissioned articles from leading historians in Spain, Britain and the US which examine the complex interaction of national and local factors, contributing to the shape and course of the war. They argue that the 'splintering of Spain' resulted from the myriad cultural cleavages of society in the 1930s that are investigated here at both local and national levels. Thus, this book tends to see the civil war less as a single great conflict between two easily identifiable sets of ideas, social classes or ways of life than historians have previously done. The Spanish tragedy, at the level of everyday life, was shaped by many tensions, both those that were formally political and those that were to do with people's perceptions and understanding of the society around them.
