T2 The Italian agrarian reform seen from Spain (1918-1953). A critical comment
A1 Riesco Roche, Sergio
AB The existing historiography tends to frame the agrarian reform programs in two great historical moments: the period after the First World War and during the 1960s within the parameters of the “Green Revolution.” Based on a certain recent bibli-ography, a critical review of the same view is proposed from the Spanish case. In Mediterranean Europe, some agrarian reform programs were born in democracy but were executed, in a very different way from how they were designed, during a dictatorship. There are certain parallels between the cases of Italy and Spain, whose agrarian structures were relatively similar, between a north where land ownership was  more  distributed  and  there  was  greater  industrialization  and  a  south  where  large property was predominant. In some way, political regimes, in democracy and dictatorship, had to respond to social demands. The role played by the large lan-downers was central to the success or failure of the reform programs, or agrarian counter-reform?  However,  changes  and  continuities  can  be  found  among  those  that were conditioning reform policies.
