Societat civil, història i universitat. Una experiència en la commemoració dels 70 anys del final de la Guerra Civil

En motiu dels setanta anys del final de la Guerra Civil espanyola, “la retirada” i els camps d’internament a França, el Grup d’Estudis de Comunicació i Política (GECP) de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona va tenir la iniciativa de muntar una exposició didàctica a la sala d’exposicions de la Biblioteca de Comunicació i Hemeroteca General de la mateixa Universitat per poder rememorar aquesta efemèride. L’exposició “Els camins de l’exili. El final de la guerra, la retirada i els primers camps” va ser plantejada des d’un punt de vista didàctic, intentant facilitar a l’alumnat de la Universitat el coneixement d’aquest període històric que, moltes vegades, és feixuc de treballar amb el mètode tradicional que sempre ha usat l’Acadèmia. Abans de muntar l’exposició, però, el GECP va recórrer el territori català per tal de treballar amb fonts de primera mà i, també, conèixer quines altres institucions o grups de recerca de Catalunya o la Catalunya Nord estaven treballant el mateix tema amb l’objectiu de coordinar sinèrgies. Posteriorment, es va fer una trobada de tots els grups al Museu d’Història de Catalunya, on es van assentar les bases pel treball col·lectiu que, finalment, es va traduir amb l’exposició que va ser presentada a la UAB durant el març i abril de 2009

Muro Mediterráneo: búnkeres y baterías para la defensa del litoral (1936-1939)

The Mediterranean wall, which is a collection of defensive constructions along the coast, was built during the Spanish War (1936-39) to prevent enemy attacks. It´s called this way like the Atlantic Wall, which was built after the Second World War. These group of buildings consist of batteries, bunkers and barracks placed along the coastline, sometimes next to another kind of infrastructure. Its location (typical of a military strategy) and its peculiar morphology are like another ones: the historical watchtowers ones. They were built by the Kingdom of Spain in the same geography four centuries earlier although, in our case, the buildings are updated to the conditions of contemporary wars: camouflage against air raids. A collection of anti-aircraft devices, placed along the coast since the late 1937, were risen following the instructions of the Valencian State to defend both citizens and cities from the aviation´s bombings. The following military settlements, organized from North to South, are part of the most relevant ones of the coast of Alicante: the Denia and Javea ones, the North of Alicante and Southwest of Alicante ones, the Portichol one, the Galvany´s Clot one and, finally, the Cape and Bay of Santa Pola ones. Remains of more than 60 architectural elements, that document the first concrete´s ruins, are still there. This paper tries to document all of them (providing their location, their morphological genealogy and including some drawings of the current state) to contribute to their revaluation and to help to their necessary protection. They are a legacy of architectural heritage which consolidates and increases the memory of our culture.

Women’s football. Notes for a social history of women’s sport in Spain, 1900-1936

In the context of demands by the European feminist movement at the beginning of the 20th century, in Spain women’s sport flagged up aspirations to what were considered to be male practices. The first experiences of women in football stand out because of their use of the media to appear as a symbol of social transformation to modernity in the 20th century. It was not in vain that women’s football highlighted the demands of the feminist movements, although it did come up against male disapproval from an opposing group. The research sets out from a bibliographical and media review of specialist press and sports news of the time. Other current studies have also been considered in order to place it in a social and historical focus on sport. This has enabled us to highlight that football in Spain was established as an unequivocal space for (re) producing male hegemony where women were relegated to the representation of a symbolic ritual in a scenario of accessory and condescension.
