  • A Minimum Unified Immunisation Schedule for Spain: Position of the CAV-AEP
    Advisory Committee on Vaccines of the Spanish Association of Pediatrics A minimum unified immunisation schedule for Spain: Position of the CAV-AEP Arístegui Fernández J. MD., Moreno-Pérez D. MD. On Behalf of Advisory Committee on Vaccines of the Spanish Association of Pediatrics The remarkable status quo in Spain, with 19 official schedules that differ both in the included vaccines and in the immunisation schemes1 and which have not been justified from either a public health or a social perspective, is unique in the world. There are other countries, albeit only a few, that also have different official schedules, but not in the amount or disparity to be found in Spain, a fact that discredits the Spanish healthcare system, both within our country and at an international level. The stance of the Spanish scientific societies on the current situation It has been a few years since scientific associations started demanding a unified immunisation schedule. Thus, AEP (Asociación Española de Pediatría / Spanish Association of Paediatrics), through its Advisory Committee on Vaccines (CAV-AEP) founded in May 1994, set as one of its main objectives the achievement of a unified immunisation schedule for all of Spain2. Since then, CAV-AEP has published a yearly immunisation schedule, including the one featured in the current issue of Anales de Pediatría3, that diverges in different points from the one proposed by the CISNS (Interterritorial Council of the 1 Spanish National Health Service)4, and the different schedules of Spain’s various autonomous communities1. In April 2011, the AEV (Asociación Española de Vacunología / Spanish Association of Vaccinology) and the AEP released a document with a series of suggestions and their justification to assist in developing a reasonable unified immunisation schedule5.

  • Visual Propaganda As a Political Tool in the Spanish Civil War
    Fighting for Spain through the Media: Visual Propaganda as a Political Tool in the Spanish Civil War Author: Jennifer Roe Hardin Persistent link: http://hdl.handle.net/2345/3078 This work is posted on eScholarship@BC, Boston College University Libraries. Boston College Electronic Thesis or Dissertation, 2013 Copyright is held by the author, with all rights reserved, unless otherwise noted. © Jennifer Roe Hardin 2013 Abstract The Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) possesses an historical identity distinct from other national conflicts because of its chronological position between World War I and World War II. International ideological interests came to the forefront of the Spanish conflict and foreign powers became involved in the Republican and Nationalist political factions with the hopes of furthering their respective agendas. The Spanish Civil War extended the aftermath of World War I, as well as provided a staging ground for World War II. Therefore, the Spanish Civil War transformed into a ‘proxy war’ in which foreign powers utilized the national conflict to further their ideological interests. In order to unite these diverse international socio-political campaigns, governments and rebel groups turned to modern visual propaganda to rally the public masses and move them to actively support one side over the other. Propaganda film and poster art supplied those involved in the Spanish Civil War with an invaluable political tool to issue a call to action and unite various political factions around one ideological movement. Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank Professor John Michalczyk for his unwavering guidance and support throughout the entire thesis process.

  • The Institution of Linguistic Dissidence in the Balearic Islands: Ideological Dynamics of Catalan Standardisation

Three associations of language activists created in 2013 are responsible for this development. Given the hegemony of the belief that Catalan is the autochthonous language in the Balearic Islands, linguistic dissidents departed from a marginal social position and saw social media as the means for the materialisation, organisation and gradual crystallisation of their linguistic—and political—activism. Thus, this thesis analyses two years of social media activity of the three language activist associations, together with three interviews with activists and the participation in a highly symbolic activist event.

  • History Writing and Imperial Identity in Early Modern Spain
    The Shaping of Empire: History Writing and Imperial Identity in Early Modern Spain By Michael Andrew Gonzales A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Thomas Dandelet, Chair Professor William B. Taylor Professor Ignacio Navarrete Fall 2013 Abstract The Shaping of Empire: History Writing and Imperial Identity in Early Modern Spain by Michael Andrew Gonzales Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Thomas Dandelet, Chair Previous studies on politics and history writing in early modern Europe have focused on how early modern monarchs commissioned official royal histories that served to glorify the crown and its achievements. These works discuss the careers of royal historians and their importance at court, and examine how the early modern crown controlled history writing. In the case of Spain, scholars have argued that Spanish monarchs, particularly Philip II, strictly controlled the production of history writing by censoring texts, destroying and seizing manuscripts, and at times restricting history writing to authorized historians. Modern scholars have largely avoided analyzing the historical studies themselves, and have ignored histories written by non-royal historians. My dissertation broadens the discussion by examining a variety of histories written by royal historians and authors from outside of the court, including clerics, bureaucrats, and military officers, motivated to write histories by their concern over Spain’s recent imperial policies and campaigns. Their discussion of important events in Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Americas uncovers the historical significant of empire as a concept, legacy, and burden during the rise and decline of Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
