The International Conference 1939 Spain exports air terror to Europe, to be held at the Faculty of Documentation Sciences of the Complutense University of Madrid on 3 and 4 June, aims to analyse the use of bombing of the civilian population as a military and power strategy, starting with the bombing of Madrid at the beginning of the Civil War and continuing throughout the war conflicts that have taken place around the world in the 20th and 21st centuries. We will be joined by experts from Germany, Italy, Switzerland and Spain, whose contributions will help to shed light on the causes and consequences of this strategy. The conference can be attended both in person and online and is free of charge, until full capacity is reached, subject to prior registration.
