Resumen

MEDRANO, Marta Mauri. Discipline the Body to Militarize the Youth. The Sports Activity of the Youth Front during the Franco Years (1940-1960). hist.crit. [online]. 2016, n.61, pp.85-103. ISSN 0121-1617.  https://doi.org/10.7440/histcrit61.2016.05.

What is a physically educated body? How did Franco's Youth Front use the body of children and young people, through physical education, for the purpose of instructing citizens who would give stability to the state? The main objective of this article is to present, by means of a methodology based on the concepts of disciplinary power and corporal docility adopted from the theory of Michel Foucault, how the Youth Front controlled the free time of young people by using games and sports (volleyball and basketball), which had a clearly instructive and indoctrinating intention. This makes it possible to conclude that the camps, the extra-curricular activities and the sports competitions used the bodies of the young as a productive base, a base considered necessary for the future political stability of the Franco regime.

Palabras clave : Contemporary history; dictatorship; physical education; sports; Spain.
