Strengthening Ties. Cuba and Spain in International Anarchist Networks (1900-1925)

Abstract

This text analyses the transnational links that connected Cuban and Spanish anarchists after the independence of the island and tries to demonstrate that this connection didn’t mean the “españolización” of the Cuban labor movement, as it has been usually understood, instead of that, these links helped to connect the Cuban workers to the anarchist international community and integrate the Cuban labor movement in the libertarian network organized in the Atlantic world since the last decades of the Nineteenth century.
