Abstract
Fiume’s experience was one of the postwar international events that arose more interest and passions in Spain, following the polarization that the Great War entailed. But it was also the object of criticism, concern and even ridicule. This paper examines the impact that Fiume had on the Spanish and Catalan public opinion. Further, it analyses the influence that this experience had over the multiple processes of radicalization and political mobilization that took place in Spain during the period 1919-1920, either as an exemplary model or as an object of rejection.
