Jos?Buenaventura Durruti Dumange (14 July 1896 - 20 November 1936) was a central figure of Spanish anarchism during the period leading up to and including the Spanish Civil War.

Anarchism has historically gained more support and influence in Spain than anywhere else; especially before Francisco Franco's victory in the Spanish Civil War of 1936-1939.

There were several variants of anarchism in Spain: expropriative anarchism in the period leading up to the conflict; the peasant anarchism in the countryside of Andalusia; urban anarcho-syndicalism in Catalonia; particularly its capital Barcelona. Pictures From History
