La ley de defensa de la república de 21 de Octubre de 1931: Introducción a su contexto político-jurídico, a su normativa conexa y breve comparativa con su homónima alemana, la Gesetz zum Schutze der Republik

In order to anayze the validity and effectiveness of the constitutional rights and freedoms in the Constitution of 9 th December 1931 and the Second Spanish Republic, should be considered the Act of the Republic´s Defense of 21 October 1931, but also should be considered other legislation about public order, that characterized its political-legal context. On the one hand, must be analyzed the adoption and validity in the Second Republic of the monarchy´s rules and the Primo de Rivera´s dictatorship. On the other hand, must be analyzed the level of delimitation of rights and freedoms delimitation, which resulted from the own legislation on security and order-public approved by the legislative in the Second Republic; for example, the Vagrancy Act of 4 august 1933 and the Public Order Act 1933. In addition, it has been included a short comparative with the Act on Protection of the Weimar Republic (Gesetz zum Schutze der Republik), that aldo we believe it may be particularly useful to contextualize and analyze in legal and political form the oportunity of the Act of the Republic´s Defense in the Second Spanish Republic and its possible excessive provisions.
