De La Iconografía Histórica Al Santoral Político. El Biopic
STUDIA HUMANITATIS JOURNAL, 2021, 1 (1), pp. 41-57 ISSN: 2792-3967 DOI: https://doi.org/10.53701/shj.v1i1.23 Artículo / Article DE LA ICONOGRAFÍA HISTÓRICA AL SANTORAL POLÍTICO. EL BIOPIC TELEVISIVO COMO CONSTRUCCIÓN MEDIÁTICA DE LA TRANSICIÓN1 2 FROM HISTORICAL ICONOGRAPHY TO POLITICAL SAINTS THE TELEVISION BIOPIC AS A MEDIA CONSTRUCTION OF THE TRANSITION Amparo Guerra Gómez Universidad Complutense de Madrid, España ORCID: 0000-0001-6895-1927 [email protected] | Resumen | En las primeras décadas del presente siglo, y coincidiendo con aniversarios y publicaciones ad hoc, triunfan en las pantallas televisivas españolas series y miniseries históricas, gracias al auge del biopic desarrollado desde los años 90. Mezcla de ficción y no ficción, este género se constituye en soporte ideal para la representación y (de)construcción de toda una galería de personajes y cargos públicos, constituidos en iconografía y santoral político de la España reciente. A través del análisis de tres miniseries estrenadas en cadenas generalistas: 23-F: el día más largo del Rey (2009), Adolfo Suárez, el presidente (2010), y De la ley a la ley (2017), este estudio se aproxima a un tipo de representación y de relato sobre los considerados responsables del milagro político del post franquismo. En fechas cercanas a la celebración del 40 Aniversario de la Constitución Española de 1978, las figuras de la monarquía moderna, del primer Presidente de Gobierno en democracia, y del considerado su arquitecto legal y parlamentario, aparecen a modo de salvífica trinidad a la medida de una memoria colectiva reciente. Palabras clave: Transición española, Iconografía política, Miniseries, Biopic, Memoria colectiva. -

Los Discursos Políticos Televisivos Durante La Transición Española Natalia Ardanaz
LOS DISCURSOS POLÍTICOS TELEVISIVOS DURANTE LA TRANSICIÓN ESPAÑOLA NATALIA ARDANAZ Introducción El objetivo de este artículo (1) es exponer sucintamente el importante papel que durante la Transición española a la democracia, jugó la televisión como principal medio de difusión de la imagen oficial del proceso. Analizaremos especialmente cómo, a través de este medio de comunicación, se constituyó la imagen de los principales protagonistas influyendo directamente en la valoración y apoyo de la sociedad española. En 1975, año de la muerte de Franco, la sociedad española contaba con unos hábitos culturales modernos fruto del desarrollo económico que llevaban experimentando desde la década de los sesenta los españoles. Sin embargo, carecía de una cultura política con la que afrontar el cambio a un sistema democrático. A pesar de las mayoritarias aspiraciones democráticas, los españoles desconocían los mecanismos propios para su participación, por lo que se encontraban en una situación de moldeabilidad y receptibilidad muy ata. Hay que tener en cuenta que la sociedad española no había tenido ninguna opción política durante la dictadura, al haber contado únicamente con el partido del Movimiento. Por lo que en 1975, salvo una minoría activa que venía luchando en la clandestinidad, los españoles tuvieron que comenzar a definir sus orientaciones políticas. En esas circunstancias, fue fundamental para los líderes políticos y sus partidos configurar una imagen influyente que declinara al electorado desde la indecisión hasta el voto. Douglas Kellner (2) señala que a menudo, son las imágenes y figuras de los discursos de la cultura de masas los que constituyen el imaginario político a través del cual los individuos interpretan los procesos, acontecimientos y personalidades políticas. -

The pact was initially a political decision, but was given legal legitimacy in the Ley De Amnistía. The decree prevented any accountability for the people who were killed, tortured, and exiled during the civil war. It pardoned those (even far-right military commanders) who were involved in the regime, allowed those who were exiled to return to Spain, and has prevented the nation from investigating human rights violations under the dictatorship. Further, the pact prevented any observation of the war or any commission to look into who bore responsibility for the war (Encarnación). Regardless, memory is crucial in order to understand the past of a nation and its trajectory moving forward. -

Foreign Correspondents in Francoist Spain
Foreign correspondents in Francoist Spain (1945-1975) Tobias Reckling This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth. March 2016 1 Abstract This thesis will examine the foreign press corps in Francoist Spain from 1945 until 1975. After the end of the Second World War, the Franco regime was internationally isolated as a result of its ties with Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. However, the dictatorship returned to the international stage during the 1950s and managed to survive on the margins of the Cold War world order until the death of Franco in 1975. Throughout these 30 years and while never loosening its dictatorial control over Spain, the Franco regime continuously tried to improve its international position and image beyond mere toleration. Foreign correspondents were working at the centre of this balancing act. Against this backdrop, this thesis has two central aims. First, it will examine the regime’s policy towards the foreign press. The thesis will show that the Francoist authorities never fully accepted the foreign press corps’ work within Spain and tried to exercise control over the foreign press corps until the end of the regime. Throughout the regime’s internal and external development, however, the Francoist authorities adapted the means they employed. At the same time, conflicting interests and strategies within the Franco regime shaped its policy towards the foreign press. This thesis will further show that conflicts with correspondents partially had their roots in the importance of the foreign press, distributed within Spain, for the Spanish public in general and the political opposition in particular. -
Estados Unidos En El Pensamiento Del Almirante Carrero Blanco
EL ALIADO NECESARIO: ESTADOS UNIDOS EN EL PENSAMIENTO DEL ALMIRANTE CARRERO BLANCO Sten Erik Norling Plahn UNED RESUMEN Los Estados Unidos fueron percibidos por gran parte de las élites dirigentes del franquismo en un principio con desdén, fruto de los estereotipos negativos de una consolidada tradición antiamericana. Sin embargo, de forma progresiva y conforme la derrota del Eje en la Segunda Guerra Mundial se hizo evidente junto a la amenaza soviética de la posterior Guerra Fría, pasó a convertirse en un mal necesario que debió utilizarse de manera oportunista para consolidar el Estado salido de la Guerra Civil, tanto en clave exterior como interior. Un análisis, en orden cronológico, de la extensa bibliografía del que fuera el principal colaborador de Franco (firmando con pseudónimos los textos más controvertidos) y, sobre todo, los informes reservados dirigidos al Jefe del Estado, constituyen fuentes indispensables que nos revelan su percepción del aliado americano y nos permite vislumbrar su influencia en la toma de decisiones en materia de relaciones bilaterales. Pese al recelo que provocó el liberalismo de la sociedad estadounidense (consecuencia de su catolicismo de corte conspirativo que siempre estuvo presente), la admiración por su pujante potencia militar naval y el papel de gendarme de Occidente frente a la amenazadora URSS, pasando por una visión nacionalista de la geopolítica que se soñaba con la posibilidad de convertir a España en una potencia de orden mundial, hicieron de Carrero Blanco un firme defensor de la alianza con los EE.UU. PALABRAS CLAVE: Carrero Blanco – Franco – EE.UU. – U.R.S.S. – Geopolítica – Guerra Fría – Política de seguridad occidental– Potencia naval – antiamericanismo. -

First, I would like to thank my dissertation committee of brilliant scholars. My advisor Laura Belmonte was integral in shaping this work and myself as an academic. Since my arrival at Oklahoma State, Dr. B has crafted me into the scholar that I am now. Her tireless encouragement, editing of multiple drafts, and support of this ever evolving project will always be appreciated. She also provided me with numerous laughs from the presidential pups, Willy and James. Doug Miller has championed my work since we began working together, and his candor and unconditional support was vital to finishing. Also, our discussions of Major League Baseball were much needed during coursework. Matt Schauer’s mentorship was integral to my time at Oklahoma State. The continuous laughter and support during meetings, along with discussions of classic films, were vital to my time at Oklahoma State. -
The ETA: Spain Fights Europe's Last Active Terrorist Group
The ETA: Spain Fights Europe’s Last Active Terrorist Group William S. Shepard One week after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pen- tagon on 11 September 2001, President George W. Bush marshaled the American people and allies of good will everywhere to a new course through his speech to Congress. In it, he resolutely condemned the attacks and promised sustained retribution. “It will not end until every terrorist group of global reach has been found, stopped, and defeated,” he announced. The world knows that he was speaking of Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda network, but shortly thereafter, media commentators posed the ques- tion whether all nations on the list that the United States says sponsor ter- rorism, including Iraq, Iran, Sudan, and Syria, were potential targets. Others wondered whether all organizations that the United States has officially con- demned as terrorist, including Shining Path in Peru and the Basque Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA) in Spain and France, were included in the president’s announcement.1 The ETA had again been designated a foreign terrorist organization by the secretary of state on 5 October 2001. One way to move away from the terrorist label is to negotiate. It may be coincidental, but it struck me that on 26 September, just two weeks after the attacks, Palestinian chairman Yasser Arafat sat down for preliminary talks with Israeli foreign minister Shimon Peres. Furthermore, at least one well- known group took quick pains to disassociate itself from America’s potential 1.
