“…19 Encara que Espanya no va participar en la Primera Guerra Mundial, el militarisme va tenyir igualment la societat a través de les guerres colonials del segle XIX i, especialment, les del segle XX al Marroc. 20 En el present treball analitzarem com, en aquest període significatiu, també en el context marroquí es defineix la masculinitat espanyola i s'ofereix una resposta a les incerteses en relació a la masculinitat que caracteritzen el període: el model viril de l'home soldat.…”

“…70 As for men, the type of soldiering manliness depicted by the Nationalists during the Civil War was very different from that of the Nazis, concentrating as it did on strongly Catholic images of martyrdom and sainthood, as well as purity and chastity. 71 Franco's regime bene®ted greatly from the simple fact that, unlike in Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany, the war was not to come, but had already been. The number of those serving in the police, the Civil Guard and the army remained very high for some years after the end of the Civil War (in 1946 they consumed 45 per cent of the state's total budget 72 ), but men were not to be torn from their families in the name of the Nation, as had happened in both Germany and Italy.…”

The Politics of the Family in Twentieth-Century Europe

This article aims to offer a first overview of family politics in twentieth-century Europe. The term ‘family politics’ is here taken to imply not just family policies – what states do for, or to, families – but, more broadly, the relations between individuals, families, civil society and the state. Four different visions of family politics, at different moments of the century, are analysed in detail: that of the Bolsheviks in the early years of the Russian Revolution; that of the great dictators (Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Franco) from the 1920s to the 1940s; that of Catholicism in the central decades of the century; and finally that of democracy, from 1945 onwards. It is argued that in each of these instances there emerges a strikingly different configuration of the relations in question (individual–family–civil society–state). For many of the Bolsheviks the family itself was the target of attack, while the individual was to be subsumed into a collectivised society. For the great dictators civil society was swiftly eliminated and the family was formally exalted, but the crucial relationships became those between the authoritarian state and regimented individuals. For the Catholic Church of Pius XII the principal menace to the Christian family was seen to come from the state on the one hand and individualism on the other; the family and an integrist society were to be the principal links of his chain. Democracy alone, albeit imperfectly, has held fast to all four elements, trying in different ways in different countries to strike a balance between them.

“…Así, por ejemplo, la tensión o el vigor de la recta conformaban una virilidad violenta y combativa, una masculinidad hegemónica plena de valores militares y guerreros que, a pesar de que no eran desconocidos, en este caso aparecían inextricablemente unidos al contexto de ataque, guerra y represiva posguerra en el que existía el falangismo (Alcalde, 2017;Torres Delgado, 2017: 147;Aresti, 2012: 65-70;Vincent, 1999;. Lo explicaba un editorial del cordobés Azul que llevaba por elocuente título "Sinceridad violenta".…”

Resumen. Partiendo de la idea de que el interés del análisis socio-metafórico reside en estudiar las metáforas en tanto pistas que nos acercan a valores, presupuestos, deseos y expectativas de quienes las producen y utilizan, este artículo propone centrar dicho análisis en un sujeto colectivo suficientemente rico y, a la par, convenientemente delimitado: las culturas políticas. Definidas, estas últimas, en la línea de lo propuesto por la denominada historia cultural de la política, la primera parte de este texto está dedicada a reflexionar sobre lo que el estudio metafórico puede aportar para una mejor comprensión de las mismas, proponiendo las principales potencialidades que este tipo de análisis guarda. A continuación, en la segunda parte, se aplica lo expuesto previamente a un estudio de caso concreto: el uso que la cultura política falangista hizo de las metáforas para definir a la nación española durante los efervescentes años de la guerra civil y de la inmediata posguerra (1936)(1937)(1938)(1939)(1940)(1941), subrayando de qué modo la comprensión de Falange puede verse enriquecida gracias a este tipo de enfoque. Palabras clave: análisis socio-metafórico; Falange Española; cultura política; nacionalismo español; metáfora conceptual; nación normativa; discurso nacionalista.[en] Socio-metaphorical Analysis and Political Cultures: on the Study of Falangist NationalismAbstract. This text presupposes that the main interest of the socio-metaphorical analysis lays on the study of metaphors as clues that can bring us closer to the values, expectations and desires of those who produce and use them. The article proposes focusing the analysis to a collective subject wide enough but, at the same time, conveniently delimited: the political cultures. Defining the latter in the way that has been done by the cultural history of politics, the first part of this text is devoted to reflect on what the metaphorical analysis can provide for a better understanding of political cultures, underlying the potentialities of this kind of proposal. Next, the aim of the second part is to apply what has been previously exposed to a concrete case-study: the use that the Falangist political culture made of metaphors in order to define the Spanish nation during the effervescent years of the civil war and the immediate postwar period.
