Prohibicion Corridas De Toros Y Prensa Internacional la web center de los animales con derecho dA derecho ANIMAL derechoanimal.info Julio- 2010 LA PROHIBICIÓN DE LAS CORRIDAS DE TOROS EN CATALUÑA VISTA POR LA PRENSA INTERNACIONAL: Autor de la recopilación: Oriol Caudevilla DIARIO "CLARÍN" (ARGENTINA): En medio de la polémica, Cataluña prohibió las corridas de toros 29/07/10 Será desde 2012. Los conservadores irán a la Corte en rechazo a la decisión. En una votación que avivó una encendida polémica, el Parlamento catalán prohibió ayer en esa región las corridas de toros, una de las tradiciones más enraizadas de la cultura española. La decisión desató un feroz debate social y político que se extiende a toda España y llegará seguramente al Congreso nacional, ya que los opositores a la medida, que entrará en vigencia en 2012, anunciaron una amplia ofensiva para dejarla sin validez. Mientras fuera del Parlamento se concentraban tanto los defensores de los animales como los partidarios de esta fiesta nacional, los legisladores aprobaron por 68 votos a favor, 55 en contra y 9 abstenciones la iniciativa legislativa popular que impulsó la plataforma Prou! (Basta) bajo el argumento de que las corridas son “una tortura” y un “maltrato evitable”, y que contó con 180.000 firmas, 130.000 más de las necesarias para llegar al Parlamento regional. Cataluña es entonces la segunda región española en prohibir las corridas de toros en su territorio, luego de Canarias, que lo hizo en 1991. La región catalana, que fue cuna y referencia de “la Fiesta” de los toros, termina así con siglos de tradición, aunque se mantendrán los “correbous” –festejos con toros a los que se prende fuego en las astas aunque no son sacrificados– a los que no afecta esta iniciativa. El debate, que captó fuerte interés por parte de la prensa local y extranjera, comenzó en diciembre y provocó fuertes enfrentamientos entre los defensores y los detractores de esta fiesta tradicional. Los choques se profundizaron cuando algunos sectores de la derecha española planteaban que la discusión se debía, en realidad, a una cuestión “identitaria” , por el sentimiento nacionalista en Cataluña, algo que siempre fue negado por los “abolicionistas”. El respaldo mayoritario del grupo nacionalista catalán Convergencia y Unión, y de Izquierda Republicana de Cataluña y de Iniciativa por Cataluña Verdes, hizo posible la prohibición, que debería aplicarse desde el 1 de enero de 2012. Votaron en contra el conservador Partido Popular (PP) y Ciudadanos, así como la mayoría de diputados del Partido Socialista de Cataluña, tras deliberaciones en las que los abolicionistas intentaron alejarse de la acusación de los defensores de las corridas, que era la de terminar “con el signo de identidad español”. El presidente del gobierno regional, José Montilla, votó en contra de la prohibición. “Creo en la libertad”, argumentó. Además lamentó “las pretensiones de los que han querido hacer de esto un termómetro de la relación Cataluña–España”, atravesada por el reciente rechazo del Tribunal Constitucional de algunos puntos del Estatuto de autonomía, como el que refería a la región catalana como una “nación”. En la vereda opuesta, el presidente de Izquierda Republicana, Joan Puigcercós, afirmó: “Se ha querido buscar una confrontación (con España) que no es tal. Hay que enviar un mensaje al mundo de que la sociedad catalana evoluciona. Votamos a favor del respeto a la vida y el rechazo de las torturas, por el progreso moral”. Pero el PP, principal partido de la oposición en España, anunció su propósito de dejar sin efecto la prohibición en las Cortes Generales españolas. Pedirá en el Congreso “que se regule por ley” que las corridas sean “fiesta de interés cultural general” en todo el país, para que los Parlamentos regionales “no tengan capacidad para prohibir” estos festejos. “No se pueden poner cuestiones identitarias sobre los derechos de los ciudadanos”, manifestó el presidente del PP, Mariano Rajoy. Las reacciones también llegaron desde el gobierno de José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, que expresó su respeto por la decisión de la Cámara autonómica, pero insistió en que no es partidario de una prohibición de estas características. También el mundo de los toreros salió a protestar, con el argumento de que la decisión cercena la libertad. Y mencionaron las pérdidas económicas que significará la abolición de esta fiesta que convoca a millones de seguidores. Indignación y tristeza entre los toreros Los toreros españoles expresaron indignación y tristeza por la prohibición de las corridas en Cataluña. Uno de los referentes más importantes que ha tenido el toreo, Manuel Benítez “El Cordobés”, recibió la noticia con amargura, “hasta con ganas de llorar, porque es una pena que destruyan lo que funciona”, señaló a la agencia EFE. Benítez, ídolo de multitudes mientras estuvo activo, lamentó además el daño que esto causará a las familias que “se ganan la vida muy honradamente”. El valenciano Enrique Ponce, uno de los máximos exponentes del toreo actual, expresó “gran indignación e impotencia por lo ocurrido”. La prohibición, dijo, es “una coacción a la libertad de los seres humanos precisamente por quienes hace 40 años abogaban por ella”. En tanto, defensores de los animales celebraron la votación en el Parlamento catalán. También festejó la actriz francesa Brigitte Bardot, que habló de una “victoria de la democracia” y “de la dignidad sobre la crueldad”. DIARIO "PERTH NOW" (AUSTRALIA): Spanish region in bullfighting ban first LAWMAKERS in Catalonia have voted to ban bullfighting - becoming the first region in mainland Spain to act against the centuries-old tradition. The ban was approved with 68 votes in favor and 55 against and will come into force on January 1, 2012. The motion - which was being watched closely across Spain - tightens the region's animal protection law to remove an exception for bullfights. The vote came after animal rights activists campaigning under the platform "Prou!" - "Enough!" in the Catalan language - collected 180,000 signatures for a petition calling for the assembly to decide on the ban. Catalonia, whose capital Barcelona is Spain's second-largest city, has followed the lead of the Canary Islands in the Atlantic which made bullfighting illegal in 1991. DIARIO "SIDNEY MORNING HERALD" (AUSTRALIA): Barcelona says adios to bullfighting JOSEPH WILSON AND DANIEL WOOOLLS July 28, 2010 - 8:49PM AP Parliamentarians in Catalonia have outlawed bullfighting, becoming Spain's first mainland region to do so after a heated debate that pitted the rights of animals against preserving a pillar of traditional culture. Cheers broke out in the local 135-seat legislature after the speaker announced the ban had passed 68-to-55 with nine abstentions. The ban in the northeastern coastal region including Barcelona will take effect in 2012. Catalonia is a powerful, wealthy region with its own language and culture and a large degree of self-rule. Many in Spain have seen the pressure here for a bullfighting ban as a further attempt by Catalonia to stand out from the rest of the country. The centre-right Popular Party, which is fervent about the idea of Spain as a unified country run from Madrid - and also supports bullfighting - said it is considering filing suit to overturn the ban. The practical effect of the ban will be limited: Catalonia has only one functioning bullring, in Barcelona, while another disused one is being turned into a shopping mall. It stages 15 fights a year which are rarely sold out, out of a nationwide total of roughly 1000 events a season. Still, bullfighting buffs and Spanish conservatives have taken the drama very seriously, seeing a stinging anti-Spanish rebuke in the grassroots, anti-bullfighting drive that started last year. The result will energise animal rights groups bent on seeking bans in other regions of Spain. The first Spanish region to outlaw bullfighting was the Canary Islands, in 1991. But fights were never that popular there and when the ban took effect there had not been a bullfight for seven years. That makes the Catalonia vote a much more potent case, even if bullfighting is not as popular there as it is in Madrid or down south in Andalusia. As debate got under way in Barcelona, protesters from both camps rallied outside the parliament building. Bullfighting opponents carried posters with gory pictures of bleeding animals. One man covered in fake red blood carried a sign in English, "Stop animal cruelty, No more blood." Pro-bullfighting groups carried signs painted on the red and yellow Catalan flag, with slogans such as Libertad y Toros (Freedom and bulls). The two groups traded taunts and heckled each other. DIARIO "THE DAILY TELEGRAPH" (versión CANADÁ): Catalonia becomes first Spanish region to ban bullfighting By Fiona Govan, The Daily Telegraph Catalonia has voted to become the first Spanish region to ban bullfighting, striking a blow to aficionados of the most emblematic and controversial of Spanish traditions. The Catalan regional parliament Wednesday outlawed the spectacle on the grounds of cruelty in a move that animal rights activists hope will be repeated across Spain. Campaigners hailed the ban, which was passed by 68 votes to 55 with nine abstentions, as a historic victory and claimed that it signalled the beginning of the end of Spain's "national fiesta". It comes at a time of strife for Spain's bullfighting industry, which has been hit hard by falling attendance and the deepening economic crisis. Deborah Parris, a spokesman for the anti-bullfighting group Prou! (Enough!), said: "Today five centuries of cruelty have ended because the people of Catalonia wanted it. They recognized that, whatever the tradition, it was cruel and had no place in the 21st century." The group, which forced the vote after presenting a petition signed by 180,000 Catalan citizens to the parliament in Barcelona, issued a statement saying: "It has created a precedent that we hope will be replicated in other democratic parliaments, in those regions and countries where such cruel bullfights are still allowed." Interest in bullfighting has been on the wane in the north-eastern region since its heyday in the 1950s and only one of Barcelona's three bullrings still stages corridas - bullfights - although it too struggles to fill the seats.

Josh Millburn contends that Hunt’s proposal of parental compromise over veganism is unacceptable on the ground that it overlooks respect for animal rights, which bars compromising. However, he contemplates the possibility of parental com­ promise over ‘unusual eating,’ of animal-based foods obtained without the violation of animal rights. I argue for zero parental compromise, rejecting a rights-oriented approach, and propose a policy that an ethical vegan parent and a non-vegan co-parent should follow to determine how to raise their children.

  • Page 1 the RECENT DEVELOPMENT of PORUGUESE
    THE RECENT DEVELOPMENT OF PORUGUESE LAW IN THE FIELD OF ANIMAL RIGHTS FERNANDO ARAÚJO1 2 I. THE PRESENT LEGAL OUTLOOK To put it mildly, Portugal is not at the forefront of the international struggle for the implementation of animal rights, and only timidly has the Portuguese legislation on animal welfare shown some progress in that direction in the last few years. Portuguese associations for animal welfare are too small, too financially strapped and too dispersed and uncoordinated to perform a sustained role in championing the cause. Their cultural and social visibility is minuscule – and surely disproportionate to the political, legal and judicial victories that, in spite of everything, the generosity and courage of a few activists3 have obtained on an individual basis. Worst of all, some traditions of violence on animals have a long history in Portugal, e.g. bullfights, and seem especially well suited to resist legal changes and to erect political barriers in the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, there are reasons for hope that this bleak outlook will improve. The rural- urban migration over the last century has resulted in the predominance of an urban culture that is becoming more and more sensitive to issues of animal welfare (a sensitivity not immune to the “herding effects” of trends and fads, e.g. the ban on furs in the fashion industry). The growing power of the media, with its consistent denunciations of the more shocking episodes of abuse of non-human animals, both domestically and internationally, has conferred visibility to these issues and put the pressure on politicians to terminate at least the more extreme forms of exploitation and violence.

  • The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain
    SOCIAL THOUGHT & COMMENTARY Torophies and Torphobes: The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain Stanley Brandes University of California, Berkeley Abstract Although the bullfight as a public spectacle extends throughout southwestern Europe and much of Latin America, it attains greatest political, cultural, and symbolic salience in Spain. Yet within Spain today, the bullfight has come under serious attack, from at least three sources: (1) Catalan nationalists, (2) Spaniards who identify with the new Europe, and (3) increasingly vocal animal rights advocates. This article explores the current debate—cultural, political, and ethical—on bulls and bullfighting within the Spanish state, and explores the sources of recent controversy on this issue. [Keywords: Spain, bullfighting, Catalonia, animal rights, public spectacle, nationalism, European Union] 779 Torophies and Torphobes: The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain s is well known, the bullfight as a public spectacle extends through- A out southwestern Europe (e.g., Campbell 1932, Colomb and Thorel 2005, Saumade 1994), particularly southern France, Portugal, and Spain. It is in Spain alone, however, that this custom has attained notable polit- ical, cultural, and symbolic salience. For many Spaniards, the bull is a quasi-sacred creature (Pérez Álvarez 2004), the bullfight a display of exceptional artistry. Tourists consider bullfights virtually synonymous with Spain and flock to these events as a source of exotic entertainment. My impression, in fact, is that bullfighting is even more closely associated with Spanish national identity than baseball is to that of the United States. Garry Marvin puts the matter well when he writes that the cultur- al significance of the bullfight is “suggested by its general popular image as something quintessentially Spanish, by the considerable attention paid to it within Spain, and because of its status as an elaborate and spectacu- lar ritual drama which is staged as an essential part of many important celebrations” (Marvin 1988:xv).

  • La Contrarevolució De 1939 a Barcelona. Els Que Es Van Quedar
    Síntesi del capítol 7 La vida quotidiana Al cap de tres dies justos de l’entrada de les tropes les sales de cine de Barcelona tornaven a obrir les seves portes. Al començar el mes de febrer ja hi havia tretze de sales obertes. Poc a poc en van anar obrint d’altres, fins un total de mig centenar. En canvi, els teatres, que necessitaven un capital humà més nombrós que els cinemes, on amb un projectista i una taquillera n’hi havia prou, van trigar una mica més a aportar la seva contribució a la normalització aparent de la vida ciutadana. A finals d’abril hi havia deu teatres en funcionament: i abans d’acabar l’any se n’hi van afegir vuit més. El Liceu, que durant la guerra havia passat a dependre de la Generalitat, va retornar a la Junta de Propietaris, i així que un nombre suficient hagueren retornat a la ciutat es va constituir una directiva presidida pel marquès de Sentmenat, que tot seguit va demanar a l’antic empresari, Joan Mestres Calvet, que organitzés tan ràpidament com fos possible una temporada d’hivern. El Liceu era un símbol massa significatiu de la victòria com per no exhibir-lo de manera immediata. L’inauguració solemne d’aquesta primera temporada sota el règim franquista es va fer el dissabte 29 d’abril amb una representació extraordinària de La Bohème, de Puccini. El preu de les entrades més cares era de 500 pessetes, l’equivalent a tres mesos de salari d’un obrer. La reobertura del Palacio de la Música, ja amb aquest nom, del qual va ser retirat oficialment l’adjectiu Catalana, va tenir lloc el 26 de març de 1939, i dues setmanes més tard es van reprendre els concerts simfònics populars dels diumenges pel matí que ja abans de la guerra donava la Banda Municipal al Palau de Belles Arts, però a causa del mal estat en què havia quedat aquest edifici del Saló de Sant Joan (va haver de ser enderrocat) es van començar a fer al Palau de la Música.

  • 20 May 2015 Thierry Meeùs Owner Mini-Europe Via E-Mail
    20 May 2015 Thierry Meeùs Owner Mini-Europe Via e-mail: [email protected] Dear Mr Meeùs, I am writing on behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) UK and AnimaNaturalis, a Spanish animal rights organisation – along with our hundreds of thousands of supporters throughout Europe – to urge you to update the depiction of Spain in the Mini-Europe park from a bullring to something more representative of modern Spanish culture such as Seville's Plaza de España. Bullfighting is animal abuse, plain and simple. In the ring, the bull has swords plunged into his neck, back and body again and again until blood pours from his wounds and mouth. He is terrified and in excruciating pain. He doesn't want to die, but he can't run away, and soon he won't even be able to stand up. After falling to the floor from exhaustion and massive blood loss, he can only watch as a knife rips into his spinal cord to kill him. This is the experience of bulls killed in Spanish bullfights. Opposition to bullfighting in Spain is already vast and mounting. According to a recent survey, 76 per cent of Spaniards show no interest in bullfights, up from 56 per cent in the '80s, and 76 per cent oppose the use of public funds to support the industry. The entire region of Catalonia is just one of the many locales in Spain that have banned bullfighting for good. The loss-incurring bloodsport of bullfighting could not continue without public subsidies paid by taxpayers.
