It shows how ordinary teachers struggled to liberate their country's education system from the legacy of dictatorship. It explores their organizations, the paths of action they chose and their interaction with the disintegrating autocracy and the emerging democracy. In addition to analyzing the national aspects of their initiatives it follows their grass-roots activities in two local contexts, the fast growing metropolitan city of Madrid and the backward rural province of Salamanca. It thus combines a general evaluation of the phenomenon with intimate glances at the people who drove it forward. The success of the transition, the book argues, was due not only to the maneuverings of political leaders, nor to popular protests in the streets, but was instead a common civic effort. By vindicating the importance of democratic professionals it thus illuminates the Spanish transition to democracy from a new angle"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 505 0 $a Representation Put to the Test : the Teachers Movements -- Educational Revolution From Within : The Movements for Pedagogical Renovation -- Rehearsing for Democracy : Union Agitation in Madrid -- Liberating the Classroom : Pedagogical Renovation in Madrid -- Recovery of Civil Society at a Local Level : The Teachers Movements in the Province of Salamanca -- Back to the Village : Teachers as Agents of an Alternative Culture -- Conclusion. 650 0 $a Education and state $z Spain $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Teachers $x History $z Spain $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Teachers $x History $z Madrid $z Madrid $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Teachers $x History $z Salamanca $z Salamanca $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Education $x History $z Spain $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Social movements $z Spain $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Social change $z Spain $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Democracy $z Spain $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Spain $x Politics and government $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Spain $x Social conditions $y 20th century. 650 7 $a EDUCATION / Educational Policy & Reform / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / Modern / 20th Century. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / Europe / Spain & Portugal. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / Social History. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Democracy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00890077 650 7 $a Education and state. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00902835 650 7 $a Education $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00902728 650 7 $a Political science. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069781 650 7 $a Social change. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122310 650 7 $a Social history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122498 650 7 $a Social movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122657 650 7 $a Teachers $x Political activity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01144345 651 7 $a Spain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204303 651 7 $a Spain $z Madrid. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204086 651 7 $a Spain $z Salamanca. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205223 648 7 $a 1900 - 1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Engel, Ben, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217022351.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=682EDB64066511E4B09646AEDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
