The political instrumentalization of professional football in Francoist Spain 1939-1975
No full textPhDThe objective of this thesis is to be the first systematic study of the
political instrumentalization of football in Francoist Spain from 1939
to 1975.
Seven separate and contrasting aspects of this political
instrumentalization may be isolated, and, accordingly, this thesis will
consist of a chapter examining each one of these seven aspects in turn.
After a first introductory chapter, Chapter Two will examine the
application of Fascist concepts to Spanish football. In the third
chapter, the questions of whether and to what extent football was used
by the Franco regime as a political soporific will be discussed. The
theme of Chapter Four is the lack of democracy within the structures of
the game, a situation that is alleged to have been deliberately imposed
by the regime in order to not create an uncomfortable comparison for
itself with the lack of national and local political democracy. The
poor working conditions of the footballers, which mirrored those of the
great majority of Spanish workers during the Franco period, are the
subject of Chapter Five. In the sixth Chapter, the political
significance of the presence in Francoist Spain of a group of refugee
players and coaches from Europe will be examined. The diplomatic
and ambassadorial significance of football, in particular of the
spectacular international triumphs of the Real Madrid club, will be
discussed in Chapter Seven. The political significance of football as a
focus for Basque and Catalan nationalist sentiment, in opposition to the
centralist Madrid regime, is the subject of Chapter Eight

The musical life of Artie Shaw
No full textArtie Shaw (1910-2004) was born to a poverty-stricken family of Jewish immigrants. In
addition to his family’s economic standing, Shaw faced many hardships during his youth
including abuse, sickness, and discrimination. Through all of these adversities, Artie came to rely
on music to fit in and be successful. After gaining a reputation as a skilled sideman on clarinet
and saxophone, Artie launched a career as a bandleader, which spanned nearly two decades.
During his career, Shaw gained more wealth and fame than he ever imagined as a
troubled child growing up in New Haven, Connecticut; but early in his career, he came to detest
the dealings of the music business, of which he was at the forefront by 1938, and the pressures of
being a celebrity. Although Artie made several attempts to leave the music business, he
continuously returned either because of contractual obligations or to make money.
In addition to Artie’s complex musical life, he also led a difficult personal life. In a 53-
year period, Shaw had eight marriages, all ending in divorce or annulment. Half of these
marriages were with Hollywood actresses, and he allegedly had dozens of more affairs. In 1954,
Artie Shaw made his final retirement from performing. He lived another 50 years working as an
author and following other pursuits outside of music.Thesis (M.M.

The spectrum of children's palliative care needs: a classification framework for children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions
No full textObjectives: This paper examined the potential of a new classification framework, The Spectrum of Children's Palliative Care Needs, to facilitate identification of children with palliative care needs for the purposes of minimum data set collection and population needs assessment. Methods: Health and social care professionals (n=50) in a range of paediatric palliative care settings applied The Spectrum to (i) clinical vignettes and (ii) consecutive children on their caseloads. They also provided confidence ratings and written comments about their experiences. Inter-rater reliability, conceptual validity, acceptability, feasibility and sustainability were examined. A subset of professionals (n=9) also participated in semistructured telephone interviews to provide further insight. Results: Inter-rater reliability for the vignettes (κ=0.255) was fair. However, professionals were more confident applying The Spectrum to their caseloads, which included children (n=74) with a range of life-limiting/life-threatening conditions. The Spectrum made conceptual sense in relation to these children and was considered to offer a meaningful way to define the eligible population in service mapping. Benefits for clinical work (eg, facilitating patient review, workload management, clinical audit) and research were also identified. However, important threats to reliability were highlighted. Conclusions: Preliminary assessment of The Spectrum confirms its potential to promote consistent data set collection in children's palliative care. The results have been used to produce a revised version and user guidelines to address issues raised by participants. However, further research is required to further validate the framework and establish its relevance to families’ self-defined needs.Karen L Shaw, Lynda Brook, Christine Mpundu-Kaambwa, Nicky Harris, Susie Lapwood and Duncan Randal
