Jose 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.
