Diego Abad de Santillán
Sinesio Baudillo García Fernández (20 May 1897 – 18 October 1983), commonly known by his pseudonym
Diego Abad de Santillán, was a
Spanish Argentine anarcho-syndicalist economist. Born in
León, his family moved to Argentina while he was young. He returned to Spain for his higher education and became involved in the
Spanish anarchist movement. After his studies, he went back to Argentina and became involved with the
Argentine Regional Workers' Federation (FORA), co-founding the
International Workers' Association (IWA). Following the
1930 Argentine coup d'état and the establishment of the
Second Spanish Republic, he again went to Spain, becoming involved in the
Iberian Anarchist Federation (FAI). During the
Spanish Civil War, he served in the
Catalan government as
Minister of Economy. After the war, he returned to Argentina and largely ceased political activities, going back to Spain only after the
Spanish transition to democracy.
