Este trabajo ofrece un panorama del teatro amateur español en São Paulo durante el periodo 1930–70, que se ha reconstruido gracias a la información contenida en los expedientes de censura teatral de aquellos años. De este modo se posibilita un acercamiento al tipo de teatro español que se exportó a Brasil y, al mismo tiempo, se arroja luz sobre el modo en que las autoridades brasileñas lo conceptuaron. A pesar de la naturaleza convencional de las obras puestas en escena, este trabajo muestra cómo aquellos grupos amateur contribuyeron a forjar un teatro de izquierdas en el ámbito teatral de la clase obrera de São Paulo. This paper provides an overview of Spanish amateur theatre in São Paulo between 1930 and 1970, drawing primarily on information contained in the files produced by theatre censors, which were in operation in Brazil during that period. This allows for an understanding of the kind of theatre brought from Spain to Brazil and, in turn, sheds light on how the Brazilian authorities understood Spanish theatre. Despite the largely conventional nature of the plays performed, there are testimonies that point to these amateur groups contributing to a left-wing theatre in São Paulo's working-class theatre scene.

This paper explores the problematic definition of the term intelectual in Spain in the early twentieth century, as shown by the polemic that surrounded attitudes to the First World War. Despite Spain's official neutrality throughout the conflict, its citizens became extremely interested in the European struggle. The country's leading intellectual figures fostered a taking of sides that pitted aliadófilos against germanófilos in a discursive war of their own. But the manifestos published by each of the two sides in 1915 show that, beyond the discussion over which countries should win the war, this polemic contained an important debate over the very definition of the term intelectual. Each side produced its own idea of what was meant by this term, with the end goal of de-legitimizing the other side's claims. This shows us the unstable nature of the term intelectual and the figure it referred to; an instability scholars of twentieth-century Spanish intellectual history need to pay attention to. Rather than this being something particular to Spain, the paper argues that this type of polemic was intrinsic to the appearance of the intellectual as a public figure in early twentieth-century Europe. El presente ensayo expone la problemática definición del sustantivo 'intelectual' en la España de principios del siglo XX, a la luz de la polémica que suscitaron las distintas actitudes de los españoles ante la Primera Guerra Mundial. A pesar de la neutralidad oficial, los ciudadanos mostraron un enorme interés hacia el conflicto que asolaba Europa. Las principales figuras intelectuales fomentaron la toma generalizada de partido que acabó enfrentando a aliadófilos y germanófilos en una auténtica guerra dialéctica. Sin embargo, los manifiestos publicados por ambos bandos en 1915 demuestran que, más allá de la discusión acerca de qué países debían ganar la guerra, la polémica incluía un debate importante acerca de la definición del término 'intelectual'. Los aliadófilos y los germanófilos definieron al intelectual y su función de formas radicalmente distintas, siempre buscando deslegitimar al otro bando. Esto nos muestra lo inestable del sustantivo 'intelectual' y de la figura a la que hacía referencia; una inestabilidad que debemos tener muy en cuenta a la hora de aproximarnos a la historia intelectual de esta época. Además, esta polémica no fue exclusiva a España sino que formaba parte de un debate más amplio en la Europa de principios del siglo XX. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ayala L. and Jurado A. Pro-poor economic growth, inequality and fiscal policy: the case of Spanish regions, Regional Studies. This paper aims to discuss whether substantive differences exist in terms of the distribution of economic growth by income groups in Spanish regions. In order to do so, data from the Spanish Family Budget Surveys for various years are used to estimate growth incidence curves, decomposition models of poverty changes, and isopoverty curves. The results show that while economic growth in the long-term has meant an improvement of the lower income percentiles in Spain, this improvement is not uniform in the different regions. Limited possibilities for poverty reduction in the lower-income regions are also found. [image omitted] Ayala L. et Jurado A. Pour la croissance economique faible, l'inegalite et la politique fiscale: l'etude de cas des regions d'Espagne, Regional Studies. Cet article cherche a discuter si, oui ou non, il existe d'importants ecarts de la distribution de la croissance economique par tranche des revenus dans les regions d'Espagne. On emploie, alors, des donnees provenant de diverses enquetes sur le budget menager des foyers espagnols afin d'estimer des courbes qui tracent la frequence de la croissance, des modeles de decomposition du changement de la pauvrete, et des courbes de la isopauvrete. Les resultats laissent voir que la croissance economique a permis a long terme une amelioration pour les centiles inferieurs en Espagne. Toujours est-il que cette amelioration n'est pas generalisee sur le plan regional. Il s'avere aussi des possibilites limitees en ce qui concerne la reduction de la pauvrete dans les regions a plus faibles revenus.

Armutsorientiertes Wirtschaftswachstum, Ungleichheit und Fiskalpolitik: der Fall der spanischen Regionen, Regional Studies. In diesem Beitrag wird untersucht, ob es hinsichtlich der Verteilung des Wirtschaftswachstums innerhalb der Einkommensgruppen von spanischen Regionen erhebliche Unterschiede gibt. Hierfur werden anhand der Daten aus den spanischen Familienetat-Erhebungen verschiedener Jahre Wachstumsinzidenzkurven, Dekompositionsmodelle von Armutsanderungen sowie Isolationsarmutskurven geschatzt. Aus den Ergebnissen geht hervor, dass sich durch das Wirtschaftswachstum zwar langfristig die Situation der unteren Einkommensperzentile in Spanien verbessert hat, aber diese Verbesserung in den verschiedenen Regionen nicht gleichmassig ausfallt. Ebenso werden begrenzte Moglichkeiten zur Verringerung der Armut in Regionen mit niedrigerem Einkommen gefunden.

El principal objetivo de este trabajo es analizar si existen diferencias importantes en la distribucion del crecimiento economico por grupos de renta en las regiones espanolas. Se utilizan los datos de las Encuestas de Presupuestos Familiares de varios anos para estimar curvas de incidencia del crecimiento, modelos de descomposicion de los cambios en la pobreza y curvas de isopobreza. Los resultados muestran que, aunque el crecimiento economico en el largo plazo supuso una mejora de los percentiles con rentas mas bajas en Espana, esta tendencia no fue uniforme en las diferentes regiones. Tambien se encuentra evidencia de las menores posibilidades de reduccion de la pobreza en las regiones de menor renta ante posibles escenarios de mayor descentralizacion.

Rodríguez-Fuentes C. J. and Padrón-Marrero D. Industry effects of monetary policy in Spain, Regional Studies. The aim of this paper is to analyse the presence of sectoral asymmetries in monetary policy transmission in Spain in the period before the introduction of the single monetary policy in Europe (1988-98). Monetary policy shocks are identified through both a standard vector auto-regression model (VAR-shock) and the specification of a reaction function (RF-shock) for the monetary authority in Spain. The responses of the different industrial branches with regard to the estimated monetary shocks are then analysed at national accounting sector and subsector levels. The results confirm the presence of significant differences in the sectoral responses with respect to national monetary shocks in Spain... [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Minondo A. Exports' productivity and growth across Spanish regions, Regional Studies. According to recent studies, countries specialized in goods associated with high productivity levels grow faster than countries specialized in goods associated with low productivity levels. This paper analyses whether that relationship also takes place at the regional level. Using a unique, highly disaggregated, regional trade database, the productivity level associated with Spanish provinces' exports is calculated and whether provinces that latch on more productive exports have achieved higher rates of growth is analysed. The results show that there is also a positive link between exports' productivity and growth at a regional level. [image omitted] Minondo A. La productivite des exportations et la croissance a travers les regions espagnoles, Regional Studies. Selon des etudes recentes, les pays qui se specialisent dans des biens associes a des niveaux de productivite forts se developpent plus vite que ne le font les pays qui se specialisent dans des biens associes a des niveaux de productivite faibles. Cet article cherche a analyser si, oui ou non, ce rapport vaut au niveau regional. A partir d'une base de donnees unique sur le commerce regional tres desagregee, on evalue le niveau de productivite associe aux exportations des regions espagnoles et analyse si, oui ou non, les regions qui exploitent des exportations plus productives ont reussi des taux de croissance plus eleves. Les resultats laissent voir que la productivite des exportations est en correlation etroite aussi avec la croissance sur le plan regional. Espagne Exportations Productivite Croissance Minondo A. Exportproduktivitat und Wachstum verschiedener spanischer Regionen, Regional Studies. Aktuellen Studien zufolge wachsen Lander, die sich auf Guter mit hohem Produktivitatsniveau spezialisiert haben, rascher als Lander, die sich auf Guter mit niedrigem Produktivitatsniveau spezialisiert haben. In diesem Beitrag analysieren wir, ob diese Beziehung auch auf regionaler Ebene zutrifft. Mit Hilfe einer eindeutigen, hochgradig desaggregierten, regionalen Handelsdatenbank berechnen wir das Produktivitatsniveau der Exporte spanischer Provinzen und analysieren, ob Provinzen mit produktiveren Exporten hohere Wachstumsraten verzeichnen. Unsere Ergebnisse lassen darauf schliessen, dass auch auf regionaler Ebene eine Verbindung zwischen Exportproduktivitat und Wachstum besteht. Spanien Exporte Produktivitat Wachstum Minondo A.

This article builds on the developing interest in the growth in number and influence of the Spanish community at Rome through the course of the sixteenth century: this research has so far focused particularly on the role of the national churches. My article will now deepen and broaden this research through enhancing our understanding of the significant role of a unified Spanish cultural identity, as expressed through works of material culture, in establishing their position and status within a complex web of transcultural relationships at Rome. Through the course of the sixteenth century, a Spanish cultural presence at Rome manifested itself in both permanent constructions such as churches and chapels and also ephemera such as festivities. While, in turn, works that were commissioned from Roman artists are still found scattered through the Iberian Peninsula. These phenomena all shed light on the nuances of the ambivalent relationship that existed between Spain and Rome in these years, as Rome was both a part of wider Spanish imperium and yet not so.

Time scarcity is a reality for most mothers and fathers of young children who work full-time. Though the Spanish law recognizes a specific right to a reduced schedule for care reasons, fathers very rarely make use of this policy. Many of them simply think that, in their current employment circumstances, they ‘can’t’ cut down on work hours. This analysis focuses on the subjective perception that employees have of their difficulty to reduce work hours. Using a nationally representative sample of Spanish employees in charge of young children, and drawing on intersectionality perspectives, we propose that several stratification systems (e.g. gender and economic structure) overlap framing the subjective experience of how easy or difficult it is to adopt a reduced schedule. We confirm that fathers in middle-level service occupations (e.g. clerical workers) may be those most likely to be ‘undoing gender’ at work, as they differ significantly from other fathers in their perception that for them it would be easier to reduce their work hours.

Spain's plummeting fertility since the late twentieth century may seem to reflect a waning desire for children. Nevertheless, reproductive disappointments resulting from gender inequalities cause many Spanish women to postpone motherhood and experience age-related fertility problems. For them, creating a family often becomes possible only through the reproductive labor of other women. Our analysis of transnational adoption, egg donation, and surrogacy in Spain shows how anonymity and altruism play out in these three strategies, with implications for the valuation of women's reproductive work and relationships among reproductive providers, intermediaries, recipients, and the resulting children.
