El Andalucismo de la Asamblea de Ronda a la Guerra Civil (1918-1936): Una Aplicación de las Propuestas de Miroslav Hroch

Abstract

With this paper, we intend to explain the proposals of the Czech historian and political scientist Miroslav Hroch about the national movements of Eastern Europe and its evolution. We are going to apply them to the case of the Andalusian nationalism, with the intention of verifying if it is possible to use the different models he raises to explain the way in which patriotic agitation develops between national groups in the geographical area of Western Europe. With this objective, we have analyzed the evolution of Andalusian nationalism in its formation process as a political movement, focusing both on its discourse and objectives and on the factors that prevented it from becoming a hegemonic current in Andalusia in the period from 1918 to 1936. In this way, we want to check the validity of the scheme proposed by Hroch and delimit in what kind of evolution we could frame the case that concerns us, which, considering its failure, would be a clear example of a disintegrated type, as it did not consolidate as a mass movement.
