Book excerpt: Asturias contemporánea (1808-1936), de David Ruiz, estudia sintéticamente ese amplio periodo histórico que va desde el fin del Antiguo Régimen, etapa en la que destaca la aportación asturiana a una revolución liberal fallida, hasta la profunda crisis social y política abre con la proclamación de la II República española, crisis que alcanzará en Asturias sus puntos álgidos con la Revolución de Octubre y el triunfo del Frente Popular. El autor se enfrenta con la historia del pasado asturiano y sitúa en el contexto de la historia española con la intención de que ambas puedan explicarse de manera mas convincente. Al sondear el pasado en busca de explicaciones que faciliten la correcta comprensión de la realidad presente, David Ruiz va analizando en qué medida la sociedad asturiana, inserta en el marco de un estado centralista, se ha planteado la solución que se fueron gestando a lo largo de los dos últimos siglos, problemas que, en algunos casos, siguen aún gravitando sobre la región asturiana. Una selección de documentos, un análisis del estado actual de las investigaciones sobre la historia regional y una serie de apéndices orientadores (bibliografía, cronología y gráficos) completan esta historia de la Asturias contemporánea con la que el autor estimular el conocimiento y el debate la historia de su región.

Book Spain since 1812

Download or read book Spain since 1812 written by Christopher Ross and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spain since 1812 is an ideal introduction to the history of Spain. The chapters are arranged chronologically and each begins with an overview of major events and movements in Europe as a whole. Emphasis is placed on understanding major developments, their causes, and the relationships between them. Spanish terms associated with key concepts and figures are introduced and explained throughout the text. Extracts from key Spanish texts, in Spanish and in translation, enable students to see, first hand, the mood of the time. Chapters end with topics for discussion to encourage critical thinking. This new edition has been revised and updated to take account of events since the Socialists' return to power in 2004. It looks at the new government's social reforms, its attempts to end ETA's violence and its response to Catalan demands for further autonomy. Also considered are changes in the country's political climate and external relationships, as well as the crisis facing Spain's economy. Written in an accessible style and assuming no prior knowledge, the books in this series address the specific needs of students on language courses, as well as anyone with an interest in modern history. Approaching the study of history via contemporary politics and society, each book offers a clear historical narrative and sets the country or region concerned in the context of the wider world.

Book Madrid  1931 1934

Download or read book Madrid 1931 1934 written by Santos Juliá and published by Siglo XXI Ediciones. This book was released on 1984 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A los trabajos que sobre la 11 República española ha publicado Santos Juliá se añade ahora este libro que obtuvo el premio “Ortega y Gasset” Villa de Madrid (1982). En él se intenta reconstruir minuciosamente el proceso y los determinantes que convirtieron la fiesta popular con que Madrid celebró la instauración de la República en el abierto enfrentamiento de clases que caracterizó la vida madrileña durante el invierno de 1933-34. A la par, y por el hecho de reconstruir este proceso en un espacio reducido -una ciudad- aunque sumamente significativo -Madrid-, el autor propone un modelo de interpretación de las luchas de clases urbanas durante la 11 República que, más allá de sus determinantes políticos, tenga en cuenta el propio desarrollo de la ciudad, las transformaciones de su estructura, los procesos migratorios, la crisis que afectó a sus principales industrias, el tipo de sus organizaciones obreras y patronales y, en fin, la dinámica de los discursos y las prácticas de clase. De acuerdo con esos presupuestos metodológicos, el libro concede una atención especial a la fiesta como momento fundante de la República para desembocar, tras el análisis de la cristalización de conciencias enfrentadas de clase, en el estudio de las diferentes formas de lucha de los dos sindicatos obreros y las distintas agrupaciones patronales. El “pueblo todo entero” que aparece como sujeto del primer capítulo del libro se convertirá, durante este corto y denso proceso, en el “frente obrero” y el “bloque patronal” que aparecen radicalmente enfrentados en su última parte. Santos Juliá es profesor del Departamento de Ciencias Políticas y Sociología de la UNED. Ha publicado, en diversas revistas y obras colectivas, una veintena de artículos sobre temas relacionados con la II República y es autor de La izquierda del, PSOE, 1935-36 y de Orígenes del Frente Popular en España, aparecidos en esta misma editorial.
