Abstract

Spanish Republican Exile: organizations assisting refugees

The end of the Spanish Civil war with the Republican defeat in 1939 brought about an unprecedented diaspora of population. An attempt was made to provide organized support to the evacuation of hundreds of thousands of people. This article deals mainly with the actions promoted by the Republican institutions (SERE and JARE), but also refers to other organizations established as a result of private or purely humanitarian initiatives to help refugees as far as they could.
