Résumé

Since 1945 Spanish anarcho-syndicalism had been divided, up to the reunification of 1961, but the National Confederation of Labour (CNT) only remains united during a few years, and finally splits again. This process gets its causes, and also produces consequences, within the clandestine libertarian movement's evolution in Spain itself. We can say that this constitutes the last anarchist attempt in order to put an end to the francoist dictatorship, and its failure does not lead to a return to the previous situation.
