ECONOMIC PROBLEMS & IMPACTS 🚀
- Anarchist Control & Effects
- Industries, public utilities & transport - controlled by worker committees.
- Rural areas had collective farms.
- Real-world example: Imagine your school clubs taking over the school cafeteria or transport – while they might have enthusiasm, do they have the expertise to manage at scale?
- Performance of the System
- Couldn't supply war needs.
- Production drop in Catalan by two-thirds from 1936-1939.
- Did you know? That's like a car manufacturing plant going from making 100 cars a day to just 33! 🚗
- Economic Stats – Yikes!
- Inflation 📈: 300% during war.
- Wages 📉: Increased only by 15%.
- Real-world example: Imagine if a candy bar cost $1 last year, but now it's $3. However, your allowance only went from $10 to $11.50. Not much more candy for you!
- Food and Essential Supplies
- Food & raw material shortages.
- Republic's diet staple: Chickpeas & lentils from Mexico.
- People faced vitamin and protein deficiencies.
- Death rate 🚫: Doubled for children and elderly in 1938.
- Fact Attack: Think about eating just beans and lentils every day while missing out on essential nutrients. 🥦🥕
- NIC's (Non-Intervention Committee) Role
- Established by Britain & France in 1936.
- Aim: Prevent foreign support to Spain's warring parties.
- Result: Restricted the Republic’s trading partners, pushing them to spend their entire gold reserves.
- Did you know?: It's like being grounded and only having one friend to play with, but even that friend is charging you your entire piggy bank savings to hang out!
- Communist Influence
- Paul Preston believes that Communist control eventually improved things through centralization, but it was too little, too late.
- Real-world example: It's like studying hard for an exam a day before when you've been slacking off the whole semester. Results are bound to be impacted!
ANALYSIS OF SOURCES ON THE END OF THE WAR 🔍
- Paul Preston (2012)
- Post Catalonia’s fall, 30% of Spain was with the Republic.
- Franco waited, anticipating Republic’s internal divisions.
- Casado sparked a "civil war within the civil war" with no positive outcome.
- Francisco J Romero Salvadó (2005)
- Casado's attempt to negotiate failed.
- Franco demanded unconditional surrender.
- The war ended with a massive victory for Fascism.
