History and profile edit

El Socialista was established by Pablo Iglesias, founder of the PSOE, in Madrid,[2] and the first issue appeared on 12 March 1886.[3][4] The paper is owned and published by the PSOE and its union, Union General de Trabajadores (UGT).[5][6] The headquarters of the paper is in Madrid.[7]

It was started as a two-page publication.[8] In 1913 the paper began to be published daily.[3] In December 1935 the control of the paper was taken by the centrist group within the PSOE led by Indalecio Prieto as a result of the resignation of Francisco Largo Caballero from the presidency of the party.[9]

El Socialista was published weekly in the early 1970s.[10] The paper was closed during the rule of Francisco Franco.[5] However, El Socialista continued its publication clandestinely in that period.[11] In 1978 it resumed its regular publication.[5]

The paper is currently published monthly, while its online edition is active every day.

Contributors and editors edit

Miguel Unamuno and Santiago Carrillo were among the early contributors.[3][12] The paper was first directed by its founder Pablo Iglesias who held the post until 1913 when Mariano García Cortes began to edit it.[13] In 1914 Eduardo Torralba Beci was appointed editor-in-chief of El Socialista, replacing Cortes in the post.[13][14] Torralba served in the post for one year, and Pablo Iglesias retook the paper and edited it until his death in 1925.[13]

Enrique Angulo, son-in-law of the socialist politician Ramón Lamoneda, also served as the director of the paper.[15] Another director was Andrés Saborit.[16] In the mid-1930s the editor was Julián Zugazagoitia.[12]

Content and circulation edit

El Socialista did not show enthusiasm about the communist revolution in Russia in 1917.[17] It even argued that the revolution was a departure from the significant obligation of Russia to defeat the German Empire.[17] The first supportive article about the revolution appeared in March 1918.[18] In the early 1930s El Socialista criticized the New Deal economic program of the USA.[19] With the rise of conservatism in Spain from 1933 the paper became one of the opposition publications criticizing the government.[20] Immediately after World War II El Socialista adopted an anti-Communist political stance and reported the political tenets of the PSOE.[21] In the 1940s and 1950s it supported the Zionist causes and was an ardent critic of the Arabs who were portrayed in a negative manner.[21] It also considered Egypt as "a miserable country."[21]

In 1949 El Socialista sold only 8,000 copies.[21]
