- Title
FRANCOIST SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AS A SCHEME TO INDOCTRINATE YOUTH AND WOMEN.
- Authors
Manrique Arribas, J. C.
- Abstract
This paper studies how successive Governments over the first two decades of Francoism (1939-1959) made use of sport and physical activity, especially among youth and women, to best convey the messages of the model of society they sought to achieve and so to increase the number of adherents to the National-Syndicalist system. After detailed analysis of primary and secondary sources, it can be concluded that sport and physical activity did not influence attitudes in most sports people, instead it limited the chances of practising sport. Indoctrination and recruiting through physical activity had a slim success: few were those who embraced the National-Syndicalist ideology by engaging in physical activity.
