Santiago Javier Armesilla Conde (born January 1982)[1] is a Spanish political analyst and PhD in Economics,[2] who hosts the political show on YouTube which shares his name.[1] He has also published books such as El marxismo y la cuestión nacional española.[3] Politically, Armesilla has been described as on the traditionalist side of Spanish communism.[4]
Due to his Pan-Hispanic and Pan-Iberophonic views Armesilla has a strong stance against the Anglosphere.[2]
Early life and education[edit]
Armesilla was born in 1982 in Madrid.[1] He graduated from the Complutense University of Madrid with a doctorate in Political and Social Economy in the Framework of Globalization.[2] He spent a year and a half in Argentina through a postdoctoral scholarship from CONICET.[1]
Career and activism[edit]
Armesilla was a researcher at the Euro-Mediterranean University Institute.[5] Now he is the director of Beatriz Galindo-La Latina Institute.
Views[edit]
Armesilla has been said, by ABC to be grouped among Hispanic communists who are conservative in the customs they hold but radically anti-capitalist (post-capitalist) in the political and economic spheres, with Miguel Riera, director of the publishing house El Viejo Topo, stating that the "rojipardo" label ("red-brown") means very little and applies to figures as disparate as “Manolo Monereo, Ana Iris Simón or Santiago Armesilla.”[6] Armesilla denied red-brown ideological label to describe his political views.[7]
He also argues for the destruction of PSOE, claiming it to "break the national territory" and prevent workers from accessing economic resources.[8]
Armesilla opposes the right to self-determination, believing it to "break the working class".[9][better source needed]
He also has anti-EU and anti- NATO views.[9][better source needed] He pointed the "nuclear fussion" between Historical Materialism of Karl Marx and Philosophical Materialism of Spanish philosopher Gustavo Bueno in a new perspective called "Political Materialism".
