What is a physically educated body? How did Franco's Youth Front use the body of children and young people, through physical education, for the purpose of instructing citizens who would give stability to the state? The main objective of this article is to present, by means of a methodology based on the concepts of disciplinary power and corporal docility adopted from the theory of Michel Foucault, how the Youth Front controlled the free time of young people by using games and sports (volleyball and basketball), which had a clearly instructive and indoctrinating intention. This makes it possible to conclude that the camps, the extracurricular activities and the sports competitions used the bodies of the young as a productive base, a base considered necessary for the future political stability of the Franco regime.

The aim of this article is to analyze social attitudes in dictatorships, examining the mechanisms used to gather social support and the complex relationship between state and society. To this end, this essay presents a theoretical and methodological proposal for analyzing individual and collective attitudes under non-democratic regimes. The first section synthesizes the main problems in examining social attitudes and points out some aspects that should be considered. The second part consists of a historiographical review of studies of social attitudes in different European dictatorships. Finally, the article focuses on the Franco regime, empirically demonstrating the need to adopt a flexible, complex, "bottom-up" approach to analyze the attitudes of "ordinary people".

The Eva`s Peron journey to Spain is a media event and the images generated at that time have become in a essential part of the myth of Evita. However, these images suffer a process of deletion, allocation, appropriation and even confrontation. The mass media face different conceptions of what should or should not be the president's wife: the prodigal lady, the artist lady, the nation lady, the heart lady and the freedom lady, as the United States launches a movie about another First Lady, Dolley Payne. All are female masks represent complex and contradictory discursive constructions of genre in service of political communication. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article discusses the history of the Mexican political party the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (Institutional Revolutionary Party), during the period 1939-1977. The author comments on the importance of the PRI for the Spanish republican exiles living in Mexico at the time of Spanish rule under Francisco Franco. He also considers the political support offered by the Cardenas government in Mexico to the PRI.

The Spanish nutritional and food transition was consolidated over the course of the twentieth century. In the pre-transition stage, a renewed interest emerged in the deficiencies presented by children''s diets, and food and nutritional education was considered the best course of action to correct them. The aim of this study was to analyse the changes over time and regional differences in the nutritional status of Spanish schoolchildren in rural areas in the 1950s and 1970s, using their height as an anthropometric parameter. The results revealed the existence of two categories at the beginning of the 1960s: a first group in which the height of children from the Cantabrian coast, the Levante, Catalonia and the Balearic Islands was similar to that of well-nourished children, and a second group from the regions of Andalusia, Extremadura and Galicia, who were not as tall. Between 1954 and 1977, the height of well-nourished children rose, particularly between 1954 and the first half of the 1960s. There was also a significant increase in the height of children attending national schools in rural areas, and the regional differences that had existed at the beginning of the 1960s disappeared. These advances were undoubtedly influenced both by the milk supplement and the food and nutritional education activities carried out within the framework of the Spanish Diet and Nutrition Education programme (EDALNU).

From Classical Antiquity to the present days, cartographic representations of the Earth have multiplied. However, not all the territories of the planet have received the same attention. In the case of the African continent, there are few collections of recent maps, especially, of those that are composed of thematic atlases. This circumstance was decisive in determining the focus of the internship in Casa África during academic year 2012- 2013, under the auspices of the Consortium Casa África - University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The objective of the internship was the drawing up of a digital atlas of Africa, which resulted in the carrying out forty thematic maps based on geographical, environmental, demographic, economic, social, geopolitical and cultural indicators, as well as on its economic and political relations with Spain. The drawing up of this atlas was affected by many difficulties related to the searching and processing of the sources of information, as well as by a design and editing work that required the use of new geographical information technologies. This article reflects the importance of Cartography as an essential tool of geographical knowledge and the overcoming of that challenging difficulties such as the drawing up of an atlas about the present conditions of the African continent.

Franco regime in Spain (1936-1975) created a dense network of repression, seeking eliminate both physically and ideologically the Republican enemy and terrorizing the population as a whole. To achieve this goal, repression reached all possible areas of life; economic, social, cultural, ideological, political, and was an instrument of domination, humiliation and forced consensus. Repression was hard-wired into the Franco regime and converted the whole country into one wide prison. This article carries out a quantitative and qualitative analysis of Franco repression in order to establish its main characteristics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This investigation analyzes, briefly, the official public memory of the Communist Party of Spain (PCE), during Franco's regime and the beginning of the democratic transition (1939-1977). Initially it establishes a framework which provides context, theoretically and historically, for the communist heritage discourse. Second, it points out some guidelines of its evolution and permanence since the late thirties, questioning how some memory practices influenced the political strategy and public identity of the PCE. In contrast to approaches that highlighted the weight of oblivion, the text highlights the relevance of the memories in the design of the communist discourse. As fundamental conclusion, it argues that official memory about the Second Republic or the Civil War took shape through negotiation between needs of legitimacy, selective recall of key past events, and managing current issues. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Historical memory has become a really relevant topic in Spanish media and politics, particularly since the adoption in the Congress of Deputies of the law 52 of 2007, "by which rights are recognized and extended and there are measures established to benefit those who suffered persecution or violence during the civil war and dictatorship. " In this study we reflect on how the media propose a public debate on Francoism and the Spanish transition. We used 32 focus groups and analyzed how the media historization of the dictatorship and its socio-political legacy is assimilated in the social discourses of the audience. That is how we examined the mediated memory, the one that is built on the collective process in which historical events are negotiated. We also found empirically eight types of ideal memories in Spain, those whose memories are influenced by the sociopolitical environment, the generation and the degree of politicization.

This investigation analyzes radio audiences during the first Francoist period (1939-1959) and values the efficacy of official propaganda broadcast through the Radio Nacional de España (RNE: National Radio of Spain). The investigation uses various statistics and newspaper sources as well as the image of radio given by movies and comics at the time. Through quantitative and qualitative analysis we demonstrate that the drive to have doctrinal programming in news and entertainment in public radio led large audience groups -urban and rural, center and periphery- to find refuge in the evasion offered by private radio stations.
