Abraham Guillén
Abraham Guillén Sanz (13 March 1913 – 1 August 1993), was a Spanish author, economist, and political theorist. He was a veteran of the Spanish Civil War, influenced by anarchism, and developed a theory of urban guerrilla warfare that was taken up by the Tupamaros in Uruguay. Biography Abraham Guillén Sanz was born into a family of peasants on 13 March 1913, in the Castilian village of Corduente. Guillén became a neo-Marxist, synthesising Karl Marx's economic theory with the direct action advocated by Mikhail Bakunin. He never joined a political party, as he believed that neither the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) nor the Communist Party of Spain (PCE) were truly Marxist organisations, instead labelling them as "opportunists".

Two of its politicians are Spanish government ministers: Yolanda Díaz (Minister of Labour and Social Economy) and Sira Rego (Minister of Youth and Children). The PCE was founded by 1921, after a split in the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (; PSOE). The PCE was founded by those who opposed the social democratic wing of the PSOE, because the social democrat wing did not support the PSOE's integration in the Communist International founded by Vladimir Lenin two years prior. The PCE was a merger of the Spanish Communist Party () and the Spanish Communist Workers' Party (). The PCE was first legalized after the proclamation of the Second Spanish Republic in April 1931.

These were halted too. On 15 March, a Republican counter-offensive was prepared. The Republicans successfully launched their counter-offensive from 18–23 March. Background After the collapse of the third offensive on Madrid, Spanish Nationalist General Francisco Franco decided to continue with a fourth offensive aimed at closing the pincer around the capital.
