In this paper we consider the combination of three issues, which also separately, have a significant interest from both academic research and film studios as from the historiographical studies. First, consideration of the role of women in past events, i.e. women as historical subject and, at the same time as a film subject; secondly, prison as a space of historical interest (social, political) as “place of memory”; and thirdly, the approach to works of a cycle scarcely cultivated by Spanish film and movies such as stories and performances that mostly take place in prisons: the prison film. The combination of these three perspectives takes place in a short but significant filmography that is our object of study.

El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar el primer tropiezo histórico de las tropas de Napoleón Bonaparte, en Santo Domingo, y los paralelismos entre la Guerra de Independencia española y la Reconquista dominicana. Para ello se han analizado los testimonios de los personajes implicados, con el fin de indagar el ideario que inspiró su acción militar. Además probaremos que, contra las ideas defendidas por algunos historiadores, tras la paz de Basilea los dominicanos siguieron sintiéndose ligados a España, como demostraron en la Guerra de Reconquista contra el gobierno francés. Sólo Cuba, Puerto Rico y Santo Domingo participaron de este sentimiento, mientras el resto de Hispanoamérica comenzaba a clamar por la independencia.

Este texto analiza la resistencia armada antifranquista entre 1939-1952. Se argumenta en él la necesidad de vincular el nuevo fenómeno a las formas y tipologías de acción colectiva anteriores al final de la guerra. El carácter transitorio de la acción colectiva en las tres primeras décadas del siglo XX, sugerido por la coexistencia de repertorios tradicionales y modernos en las prácticas de protesta colectiva, encaja con la existencia de dos formas diferenciadas de resistencia armada que propone el autor: guerrilla y bandolerismo social.
