Abstract


The expansion of Darwinism stimulated a great deal of interest about the phenomena associated with heredity during the 1870-1930 years. Spanish anarchists, even though they were not specifically interested in the causes of variation and heredity, manifested an explicit concern about its potential effects. In fact, the analogy between memory and heredity, normally linked with Neolamarckian theories, proved to be extremely useful to rationalise those aspects of social and historical reality more difficult to accept from a libertarian point of view.
