Rather original, within the Spanish anarchist movement, is the case of the activist and intellectual Federica Montseny (1905-1994). The economic and social conditions of the early thirties in Spain push her to have a full role in the rough debate within the movement. Shortly before the Civil War, she joins the FAI, the federation of revolutionary struggle with a considerable sympathy for individualistic views. In the summer of 1936, the outbreak of armed conflict transforms her anti-state attitude and Montseny assumes a ministerial role in the Department of Health. Here, she tries to implement reforms for the benefit of both poorer classes and women
