The political instrumentalization of professional football in Francoist Spain 1939-1975
PhDThe 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
Caso inquisitorial sobre la confiscación de estampas obscenas del platero Don José Luis Rodríguez, 1799 abril 3-26
El texto describe una serie de eventos relacionados con la confiscación de estampas a Don José Luis Rodríguez, un platero. Rodríguez Alconedo solicitó que la Inquisición examinara sus estampas confiscadas para separar las que consideraba "nocivas" y devolver el resto. Después de examinar las estampas y retirar las que consideraba indecentes, el calificador de la Inquisición, Doctor Fray Ramón Casaus, entregó las estampas restantes a Rodríguez. Hubo cierta confusión sobre el número de estampas confiscadas y devueltas. Al final, la Inquisición confiscó 14 estampas, que están incluidas en el archivo. Sin embargo, el texto de las estampas no está incluido en esta transcripción. —— The text describes a series of events related to the confiscation of prints from Don Joseph Luis Rodríguez, a silversmith. Rodríguez Alconedo requested that the Inquisition examine his confiscated prints to separate 'harmful' ones and return the rest. After examining the prints and removing the ones he deemed indecent, the Inquisition's censor, Doctor Fray Ramon Casaus, handed over the remaining prints to Rodríguez. There was some confusion regarding the number of prints confiscated and returned. Ultimately, the Inquisition confiscated 14 prints, which are included in the file. However, the text on the prints is not included in this transcription. 19 f. (24 p.

LEP results on from and event shape variables
We present here the LEP results on the measurement of the QCD coupling constant, a,, using two complementary analyses. Firstly, from the fits within the framework of the Standard Model, we determine a,(Mz) = 0.127 ± 0.006. Secondly, from the study of global event shape variables, we obtain a,(Mz) = 0.123 ± 0.006. Both measurements agree within the errors. The latter method of determining a; is dominated by theoretical uncertainties
