Knowledge of universal contemporary history, and contemporary history of Spain and Catalonia acquired at bachelor's degree.
This subject will deal with the birth and consolidation of a new economic, social, political and cultural model in Contemporary Catalonia and the alternatives to this model throughout the 19th century and the first third of the 20th century in Catalonia.
In this sense, we will analyze the consolidation of a new form of state, the liberal state, and a new socio-economic model, the capitalist, and the impacts of this reality on the transformation and contradictions of Catalan society. We will also talk about the alternatives that were established in this society to transform this model of state and of a specific type of capitalism: republicanism, working classism and Catalanism.
The interaction between them and the political, social and cultural dynamics that they inaugurated in a turbulent framework, will allow us to delve into the fundamental axes that have marked the contemporaneity of Catalonia..
1- The Liberal Revolution and the origins of Contemporary Catalonia
2- The attempt of great rectification. ”Sexenni”: Democracy, Republicanism and Sovereignty
3- The birth of the nation: Catalanism and national construction
4- The modernization of republicanism: lerrouxism and catalanism
5- The workers “alternative”: anarcho-syndicalism
6- The crisis of the Restoration: the Dictatorship of Primo de Rivera
7- The Second Republic: hopes and frustrations
8- The Civil War
