Claims from the media and academic research suggest that during the first Zapatero government (2004‐08), the Oficina Económica del Presidente (President’s Economic Office) played an activist role, not only in the development of its legal functions but also in the decision-making process related to economic policy. Given that the OEP was headed by individuals who had no political experience at the time they were appointed, and moreover were assisted by technical experts of the same background, this article intends to examine the extent to which this kind of reform of the core executive ‐ seen as a product of presidentialization ‐ undermined the influence of the minister of Finance.
来自媒体和学术研究的说法表明，在萨帕特罗第一届政府(2004 - 08)期间，总统经济办公室Económica del Presidente(总统经济办公室)不仅在其法律职能的发展方面发挥了积极作用，而且在与经济政策相关的决策过程中也发挥了积极作用。考虑到OEP的领导人在被任命时没有任何政治经验，而且得到了具有相同背景的技术专家的协助，本文打算研究这种核心行政部门的改革——被视为总统选举的产物——在多大程度上削弱了财政部长的影响力。

This article inquiries about the use of Twitter by the two radical right-wing populist Iberian parties, the Spanish VOX and the Portuguese Chega, during election campaigning. Using quantitative and qualitative methodologies, it analyses the tweets posted on their official accounts during the campaign running up to the last general elections held in Spain and Portugal. The results indicate diverging uses of Twitter and differences in their thematic political agendas. VOX chiefly exploits people’s feelings of national unity in the face of Spain’s peripheral nationalism and stirs up fear of illegal immigration. Chega cultivates a sense of insecurity to legitimize its punitive legalistic proposals, such as applying the life sentence and the chemical castration of paedophiles. VOX more frequently employs colloquial and aggressive language. These differences reflect the asymmetric positions of power occupied by the two parties but do not jeopardize the development of an Iberian-inspired radical-right populism.

The aim of this article is to examine the literary discourses of Basque novels that deal with the memory of the Spanish Civil War, and to compare them with the sociopolitical context in which they were published. Firstly, we offer a summary of the period from the Spanish transition to the dissolution of Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA, Euskadi and Freedom), focusing on the factors that worked either in favour of or against remembrance of the war. Then we interpret accounts of the war in Basque novels. Finally, our conclusion is that, in general terms, there is a parallelism between political and literary dynamics, although by the 1990s Basque novels were ahead of the times in seeing the need to provide a new, critical image of the Civil War; in the political field, however, that process was to take place at the beginning of the new millennium.
本文的目的是研究巴斯克小说的文学话语，这些小说涉及西班牙内战的记忆，并将它们与它们出版的社会政治背景进行比较。首先，我们总结了从西班牙过渡到Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA, Euskadi和Freedom)解散的时期，重点是支持或反对纪念战争的因素。然后我们解读巴斯克小说中对战争的描述。最后，我们的结论是，总的来说，政治和文学动态之间存在着平行关系，尽管到20世纪90年代，巴斯克小说在看到需要提供一种新的、批判性的内战形象方面走在了时代的前面;然而，在政治领域，这一进程将在新千年开始时进行。

Preston was interviewed in January 2021 by Deborah Madden, a Leverhulme Trust research fellow at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Preston offers intriguing insight into his research, discussing the politics of sexual violence, memory politics, research as a form of activism and his main regret as a historian. The following transcript has been edited for length and clarity.

A successful Spanish TV show, Isabel (three seasons, 2012‐14; broadcasted through the national TV channel La 1) recovers an important female political figure in Spanish history, Isabella I of Castile ‐ the Catholic monarch ‐ as a powerful leader who achieved the unification of Spain and the expansion of a true empire during the fifteenth century. This recovery is not naïve, but fully charged with ideological positions that are played out in Spain’s current context. By virtue of being a woman ‐ in fact, one of the most formidable female figures in Spanish history ‐ the show brings to the fore questions regarding the relationship between gender and power both in the past and present history of Spain. Reference to her government allows drawing connections with the current state of affairs, most notoriously the mainstreaming of a Spanish gender agenda. It is our contention that the show’s chronological progression from a life devoted to attaining and consolidating power to the aspiration of having love and family, as well as the casting choices and characterization of the main protagonist, reveal ongoing political debates regarding the Spanish institutionalization of feminism and the prevalence of an understanding of feminism in line with a neo-liberal logic.

Throughout history, Hispanic feminism has been endowed with ideological mothers and sisters. The dictatorship of Francisco Franco (1939‐75) prevented their reception for years. However, in the late Franco era, the foundational essays of Betty Friedan and Simone de Beauvoir were published. Later, at the height of the women’s movements, other foreign voices arrived, such as those of the Anglo-Saxon socialist feminists Juliet Mitchell and Sheila Rowbotham. After contextualizing the feminisms of the Transition and their physical and intellectual spaces, this article focuses on the reception and censorship of Mitchell’s and Rowbotham’s essays in the 1970s. Published under the Barcelona publishing imprints of Anagrama and Edicions 62, as well as the Madrid-based Debate, six of the eight books have censorship files, which show how the censorship apparatus continued to act after the death of the dictator. Almost half a century after their publication, now that the essays of the second wave are once again a source of inspiration for contemporary feminism, this research aims to pay tribute to them and remind us that the socialization of their texts, through translation, was one of the key elements of social and political change in the post-Franco period.
