A writing master, businessman, printer and type designer, he conducted experiments to improve legibility which also included paper making and ink manufacturing. In 1758, he was appointed printer to Cambridge University Press, and despite his personal Atheism, printed a folio Bible in 1763. His typefaces were greatly admired for their simplicity and refinement by Pierre Simon Fournier, and Giambattista Bodoni.

Through the revision of the official documentation of the era and the contribution of studies already carried out on the subject, we try to show some common aspects and friction points that existed between the two institutions. While both delegations prioritized sport and physical activity as a tool for the indoctrination and adherence to the regime, however, the “Frente de Juventudes” tried it harder.

I will compare the three largest extreme right movements, FE de las JONS, CEDADE and Fuerza Nueva with the newly created coalition LEM. After almost 40 years of a national catholic dictatorship did Spain transform into a democracy in a couple of years. The importance of Franco’s person and the lack of cooperation between the remaining Francoist secured the easy democratic transition. The Falangist tradition of José Antonio Primo de Rivera and Franco’s regime have been of massive importance to the post-Franco extreme right in Spain. They claim to represent something new, but they are unable to escape the national catholic traditions of their predecessor. V VI Preface This master thesis is a party of the master program at the University of Oslo, 2014. The objective with this thesis is to clarify the role of the extreme right in post-Franco Spain.

Mediante la revisión documental de fuentes primarias y secundarias se puede concluir que la actividad físico-deportiva no influyó mayoritariamente en las actitudes de sus practicantes, aunque sí que condicionó las posibilidades de practicarlo.

    Youth Knowledge # 23 This sixth publication in the History of Youth Work in Europe project THE HISTORY OF YOUTH WORK IN EUROPE based on the workshop held in Malta – Connections, Disconnections and Reconnections: The Social Dimension of Youth Work, in History and Today – looks at the relationship between youth work and social work and the role youth work can play in the social inclusion of young people. Contributors have reflected on concepts, tools and support measures for 6 Volume – history in Europe The work of youth more vulnerable and often socially excluded young people and have sought to promote a common understanding of youth work as a social practice. The workshop that led to this book sought to understand where youth work has positioned itself from its origins, through its development, to its contemporary identity. Is youth work as much a social practice as a non-formal educational one? Where does the balance between these two dimensions lie? What are the mutually enriching dimensions of these two fields in terms of their impact on young people’s lives? While most agree that youth work needs to be further defined as a practice or profession in itself and that the process of shaping its identity continues in different ways in different countries, it is clear that when it comes to a cross-sectoral perspective and youth work’s interaction with social work, the picture becomes significantly more complex, arguably much richer and certainly more dynamic than might have hitherto been foreseen.

Thereport briefly sketches the political and romantic Student Left during thedecade of the sixties; delineates the characteristics of non-campus-based youthful radicalism as exemplified by the action and thoughtof the Young Communist League between 1922 and 1943; explores the nature of the student movements which emerged during the immediately ensuing period; and specifies resemblances and differences between thepast and present in order to better anticipate the future. Whilemuch of the data of the study are derived from conventional bibliographical sources, the main historical sections are based on an intensive analysis of all named issues of youth-oriented radicalperiodicals or newspapers. Findings for both past and present youth groups indicate they were preoccupied with social issues ofpeace, poverty, civil liberties, and racial discrimination, and withcampus issues of corporative control of the university, academic freedom, economic issues, and academic offerings.

Taking as a starting point the situation of university under the Franco dictatorship, and how (and why) students were dealt with, the major features that set the student movement apart from other kinds of activism in that time are described and linked to the unique effects that it had on the status quo, with a special stress on its ability to generate the kind of cultural change required for overcoming the atmosphere of resignation and consent that helped to keep the government in power.

Boalick 2013 To Jeff ii Acknowledgements The Department of Romance Languages and Literatures of the University of Michigan, the Rackham Graduate School, and the Spanish Ministry of Culture’s Program for Cultural Cooperation provided ample financial support for this dissertation. Carin Scott and Katie Hayes graciously shepherded me through its administrative completion. Many dear friends challenged, encouraged, inspired, supported, and amused me during its writing: Ashley Rainey Donahey, Maxime Foerster, Aston Gonzalez, Trevor Hoppe, Tom Maranda, Maria Robles, and Rachel TenHaaf stand out among them. Jarrod Hayes offered precious mentorship and friendship throughout my graduate program. I owe my doctoral committee a great deal for enabling me to study modern Spanish culture, and for their rigorous feedback and mentorship that made my success possible. I am grateful to them for modeling the kinds of pedagogy and scholarship that I aspire to produce. David Caron’s wit is as sharp as his critical insight, and he has shaped my thinking in fundamental ways. David Halperin taught the world How To Be Gay, and he generously continues to teach me how to be an academic.

    THE REEMERGENCE OF FASCISM A thesis submitted to the faculty of San Francisco State University In partial fulfillment of The Requirements for The Degree A ^ Master of Arts 3G In Y q Political Science V4T- By Estrella Idea Yepez San Francisco, California January, 2018 Copyright by Estrella Idea Yepez 2018 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read Reemergence o f Fascism by Estrella Idea Yepez, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree: Master of Arts in Political Science: Political Theory at San Francisco State University. James Martel, Ph.D. Professor of Political Science THE REEMERGENCE OF FASCISM Estrella Iclea Yepez San Francisco, California January, 2018 The aim is to discuss the basic laws in which fascism emerges. These basic guidelines, if you will, are determinant in distinguishing regimes and movements from being authoritarian, totalitarian, and in this case, fascist. With this being said, given that every fascist regime in history emerged under different circumstances and for different reasons, I argue, for this reason, fascism cannot be defined by one universal definition—it can only be described by using such laws. When examining the twenty first century reemergence of the radical right, I will identify the Alt Right as a neo-fascist movement by applying Payne’s Retrodictive Theory o f Fascism, support each component of Payne’s theory through the social; cultural; political and psychological findings through the Marxist lens, and apply my Polar Opposite theory to properly place and identify the Alt Right on the political sphere.
