The dossier offers comprehensive text and exercise materials on a very current and relevant topic for the Abitur, for which there have been few resources so far: the examination of the Spanish Civil War as well as the history of Spain, Chile, and Argentina during the time of the dictatorship regimes. After a summarizing introductory chapter on the topic of "memoria histórica," several chapters first address the Spanish Civil War and Francoism through historically significant sites such as the Valle de los Caídos. In the further course of the volume, the dictatorship and the accompanying repressions in Argentina and Chile are discussed. The book also includes a large number of documentary and artistic photos on the topic, which are didactically presented, providing ample opportunities for discussion. The carefully selected newspaper and magazine excerpts ensure authenticity.
