De plurales y mayúsculas: en torno a la Reforma Agraria de la II República

Abstract

This article analyzes the path of the historiography on agrarian reform of the Second Republic, taking as its starting point the treatment was deen l subject by writers of the 1970s and its evolution to date. In this tour emphasizes the dual imperative, ethical and economic that has prevailed in the debate on the viability of the Agrarian Reform. Somehow, it traces a journey that begins with Edward Malefakis and reaches Ricardo Robledo, the modern historian around which it has continued with the study of Republican reformism. Among other issues discussed major issues of historiography that has sought a cross-sectional analysis by periods and by institutions. The balance is relatively positive, as though on land reform Republican weighs like a lid the label of «failure», the development of studies demonstrates the amount of nuances that should have such a claim.
