Alejandro Lerroux y García (La Rambla, Córdoba, 4 March 1864 – Madrid, 25 June 1949) was a Spanish politician who was the leader of the Radical Republican Party during the Second Spanish Republic. He served as Prime Minister of Spain three times from 1933 to 1935 and held several cabinet posts as well.〔(Geneall, Alejandro Lerroux y García )〕 The word Lerrouxism ((スペイン語:Lerrouxismo), (カタルーニャ語、バレンシア語:Lerrouxisme)) was coined after this politician's name. It used to define a kind of virulent, and often demagogic anti-Catalan trend among Spanish politicians that began with Alejandro Lerroux and his Radical Republican Party. The term was widely used in Spanish politics, especially in the first half of the 20th century. ==Biography== Lerroux agitated as a young man in the ranks of the radical republicans, as a follower of Manuel Ruiz Zorrilla. He practised a demagogic and aggressive journalistic style in the diverse publications that he directed (''El País'', ''El Progreso'', ''El Intransigente'' and ''El Radical''). His populist and anticlerical speeches, as well as his intervention in diverse campaigns against the governments of the Restoration, made him very popular among workers in Barcelona, who later constituted the base of a loyal electorate. He was chosen as a deputy for the first time in 1901, and again in 1903 and 1905, as a member of the Republican Union party that he had helped to form with Nicolás Salmerón. The defection of Salmerón to the Catalan Solidarity coalition in 1906 led Lerroux to form the Radical Republican Party (1908) and headed the struggle against increasing Catalan nationalism. He had to go into exile on several occasions, first to escape condemnation dictated by one of his articles (1907) and later fleeing from governmental repression in response to the Tragic Week in Barcelona (1909). After returning to Spain, Lerroux agreed to join the Socialist-Republican Conjunction, and he was elected as a deputy again in 1910. Afterwards he was involved in a series of scandals that moved him away from his Barcelona electorate, with corruption accusations forcing him into a change of district, appearing for Córdoba in 1914). Under the dictatorship of Miguel Primo de Rivera (1923–30), his party was debilitated when its left wing, led by Marcelino Domingo, left to form the Radical Socialist Republican Party in 1929. However, he continued to be active in politics, attending the revolutionary committee that produced the Pact of San Sebastián with the intention of overthrowing King Alfonso XIII and proclaiming a republic. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alejandro Lerroux」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
