Posguerras comparadas (POSCOM)

The POSCOM project was born out of a desire to join forces, to break out of the historical compartments in which historians sometimes confine themselves and to study the phenomenon of democracy throughout the 20th century from a global perspective.

The aim of our research is to analyse the political and intellectual developments that took place between Spain and its neighbouring countries and to investigate the transnational spaces that were articulated in political, institutional and ideological terms.

The study will focus on the case of Spain, a country that repeatedly suffered throughout the century both the initial siege of democracy and its subsequent triumph. In this sense, the analysis of the conceptions of democracy and the debates surrounding it will always be carried out in dialogue with the closest countries on the European continent and with others, no less close, on the American continent.
