José Antonio Primo de Rivera: the poetry of violence or resilience?

In this article we will try to apply the concept of resilience to the fields of politics and sociology. In fact, we will try to understand whether the concept of violence in the discourses of José Antonio Primo de Rivera was a form of adaptation to the ‘abnormal’ political situation in Spain during the thirties – a resilience in order to create a public space for coexistence that in those years did not exist – or whether it was simply a ‘moral treatment’, the dialectic “de los puños y de las pistolas”.
