Frente de Juventudes in the school: the construction of the social imaginary of youth during the francoism (1940-1960

Este texto tiene como propósito fundamental analizar cómo los imaginarios sociales constituyen esquemas interpretativos de la realidad, socialmente legitimados y comprometidos con los grupos hegemónicos. Durante el franquismo, las políticas educativas que se llevaron a cabo tenían como objetivo inculcar unos valores y unos conocimientos concretos que buscaban un adoctrinamiento de la infancia. Este estudio pretende comprender cómo se pusieron en marcha una serie de mecanismos en torno a la juventud, dentro y fuera del ámbito escolar, que buscaban este objetivo. Queremos valorar la importancia que el régimen concedió a rituales, conmemoraciones, fiestas escolares, canciones, uniformes… como un medio para transmitir contenidos, valores e ideología.This paper aims to analyze that the social imaginary are interpretations in reality, socially legitimized and committed to the hegemonic groups.
