Abstract

This article reports on European civilian involvement in the Spanish Civil War from 1936 to 1939. According to the author 40 politically conservative volunteers from Switzerland tried to help the Spanish dictator Francisco Franco because of his enmity towards Marxist and Bolshevik politics, while 800 Swiss civilians assisted the Spanish government, called the Spanish Republic. Many of the Spanish people in favor of Franco were a part of a Swiss political movement called the "National Front" that was committed to spreading fascist and Nazi ideas in Switzerland. The author also claims that one of the Franco supporters was Swiss Foreign Minister Giuseppe Motta, who encouraged the official Swiss recognition of Franco's regime in February 1939.
