De la calle a la trinchera. El frente como escenario de lealtad y compromiso de la Guardia Civil en la Guerra Civil Española.
Autor: Cervera Gil, Javier
Resumen: For broad sectors of Spaniards, fundamentally from the left and from
the working world, the Civil Guard is considered, when the Spanish Civil War
arrives, as a conservative institution with dubious loyalty to the republican cause.
Probably an unfair impression, but it is what it is. In addition, in its more than
ninety years of history, although it was a military body, its field of action had
always been public order and security in the streets and squares of towns and
cities. But as of 1936 it was incorporated as one more combat force at the battle
front. And in republican Spain, this incorporation of the Civil Guard to the front
becomes a means to accredit the commitment to the cause and dispel the doubts
and misgivings that many civil guards aroused in the republican sphere. In this
article we analyze the characteristics of this type of incorporation to the front and
the consequences it has on the civil guards in the republican zone of the Civil War.
