Biography
Peter Anderson is a British Academy Research Fellow in the Department of International History, London School of Economics.
'Anderson's book is a brilliant exposition of Franco's social cleansing, focused on a case study.' – Jose M. Faraldo, Universidad Complutense de Madrid
'This book, taken as a whole, and even though it does not explain military repression in Franco’s Spain, is an invaluable work, one that must be consulted for any study of the issue. Anderson offers new venues and analysis that would certainly improve our understanding of the problem.' – Antonio Cazorla-Sánchez, Trent University
