Resumen: El artículo se interroga por la naturaleza y la intensidad de las resistencias que algunos grupos sociales plantearon al proceso de transformación política y socio-cultural que comenzó a finales de los años sesenta y se extendió a lo largo de los setenta. Presta atención a aquellos sujetos que alzaron su voz en defensa de la tradición y en contra de la modernidad, así como a la incidencia que tuvieron sus acciones y comportamientos de oposición sobre el proceso de democratización. En primer lugar, el texto se detiene en las acciones de resistencia protagonizadas por feligreses conservadores que abrigaban actitudes políticas aquiescentes con la dictadura y acudían a escuchar misa a una parroquia regentada por un cura progresista. En segundo lugar, atiende a las resistencias expresadas por la comunidad parroquial de la iglesia de San José de Estepona (Málaga) ante el proyecto para la instauración de un complejo nudista en la localidad en 1978.Palabras clave: tardofranquismo, transición, democratización, resistencias al cambio, conservadurismo.Abstract: The article wonders about the nature and the intensity of the resistances set in motion by some social groups against the process of political and socio-cultural transformation that began at the end of the sixties and extended throughout the seventies. It pays attention to those subjects who raised their voice in defence of the tradition and against the modernity, as well as to the impact of their actions and opposition behaviours on the process of democratization. In the first place, the paper deals with the actions of resistance activated by the conservative parishioners who had acquiescent political attitudes towards the dictatorship and who attended to a parish ruled by a progressive priest. Secondly, it focuses on the resistances expressed by the parochial community of the San José church (Estepona, Málaga) caused by a nudist project in the town in 1978.Keywords: late Francoism, transition to democracy, democratization, resistances to change, conservatism.

Abstract This article describes changes in a kibbutz factory as an outcome of social change in the kibbutz community and in Israeli society. The study estimates the cultural transformation in the specific kibbutz industry and analyzes the transition from its original clan culture to a Weberian hierarchic structure. The findings serve as a basis for comparing the impact of cultural change in various kibbutz industries and other types of enterprises as well. When founded, the plant operated according to socialist values: Equity, democracy, rotation among managers and familial features. From the 1980s, when the kibbutz underwent privatization, its factory also shifted away from strict socialist principles. After a financial crisis in the 1990s, the factory experienced a period of decline and finally closed. Later, a private individual from outside the kibbutz bought and reopened the factory, drastically changing its organizational culture as the business became a stratified hierarchic organization.

AbstractThe economic poverty of Tripoli in the Seventeenth century was such that the piratical activities of its corsair fleet were of major importance to both the town and the Ottoman regime. An unpublished journal written by Thomas Baker (British Consul between 1679–1685) contains detailed information about the arrival and departure of both merchant ships and corsairs and about the value of prizes taken by the pirates and brought to Tripoli. These data are of great value in demonstrating the impact of the corsairs on the political and economic relationships of Tripoli with the European powers. If the corsairing was too successful, Tripoli was liable to be attacked by these powers. But on the other hand, when the authorities were constrained by treaties with the Europeans to limit the activities of the corsairs, the resulting economic hardship threatened the internal stability of the regime.

This article investigates the impact of industrialization and urbanization on the migration patterns of elderly Swedish men and women in the town of Sundsvall during the nineteenth century. The geographical mobility of old men and women increased as industrialization proceeded. Social ties were important factors in the decision to migrate, and the study investigates in particular the significance of social networks for childless old persons. This analysis also examines migration patterns among elderly men and women of different social groups. Very few childless men seem to have moved to live with a relative, whereas a higher proportion of migrating women in this category had some kinship network. A similar pattern was found among widowers and widows. There was also a class dimension: relatives seem to have been most important for the group of women belonging to the petty bourgeoisie.

This article rethinks the political and institutional causes of the rapid debt growth and its exploitation in the italian “blocked” political system (so-called “First Republic”). Italian State has always lived above its means, with a constant imbalance between income and expenditure and at the same time expanding its distance with respect to society (but the debt was paid by social groups that took advantage of it). This process triggered off a perennial crisis of representation and strengthened the instability of relations between political institutions and society. Therefore, sovereign debt downturns are always crises of institutional legitimization and require a redefinition of the ways in which sovereignty and power are exercised. Thus, the article investigates the impact of the “political use” of the public debt by governments on the relationship between the State and society.

  Resumen: El concepto Movimiento Popular ha sido elaborado por la práctica política de izquierda durante todo el siglo XX, extendiéndose desde allí al campo acadé­mico. Pero con el Golpe de Estado de 1973 y la consecuente derrota política de este sector, su valor teórico perdió fuerza. El presente artículo busca establecer algunos balances y periodificaciones, especialmente respecto de los momentos en que la pregunta por el Movimiento Popular se ha hecho políticamente urgente, encontrando eco entre los historiadores. Se revisan, primero, las tesis gruesas de la corriente previa a 1973, denominada como Historiografía Marxista Clásica. A partir del impacto de los hechos de aquel año, se observan las premisas tanto de la reacción postestructuralista de los Nuevos Movimientos Sociales, como de la denominada Nueva Historia Social. Por último se revisan algunos visos de reactivación del problema desde una perspectiva de la historiografía política y social en las últimas dos décadas. Palabras clave: historiografía, movimiento popular, movimientos sociales. Abstract: The Popular Movement concept was developed by leftist politics throughout the twentieth century and it reached various academic fields as well. However, in Chile, this concept lost its theoretical strength with the 1973 Coup and the political defeat of the left. This article attempts to make some evaluations and periodizations of moments when questions on the Popular Movement have become politically urgent and found an echo in historians. The text overviews theses of the pre-1973 Classic Marxist Historiography trend. From the impact of the 1973 Coup, we can observe the post-structural reactions of the New Social Movements as well as those coming from the New Social History. The text also examines some reactivation of the question from the perspective of political and social historiography in the last decades. Key words: Historiography, popular movement, social movements.

The relevance of the research problem is that the understanding of socio-cultural transformation allows us to identify social processes that affect the functioning of post-Soviet Ukrainian society. The research subject is the social processes that determine the content and nature of socio-cultural transformation of post-Soviet Ukrainian society. The purpose of the article is to comprehend the impact of socio-cultural changes on the functioning of post-Soviet Ukrainian society. The methodology of the socio-cultural transformation research is based on the use of systematic, logical, historical, dialectical and socio-cultural approaches and methods. The results of scientific research. In post-Soviet Ukraine, the general context of socio-cultural change is due to the implementation of market reforms that have led to privatization, deindustrialization, mass marginalization, transition to a liberal state and depopulation. These processes have led to socio-cultural changes in the lives of Ukrainian citizens. There were important changes in the social sphere, the social structure of the population, the distribution of national wealth, which changed the direction of its movement from the dominance of social development to the predominance of social degradation. There was a change in the social matrix of society’s reproduction: there was a transition from the dominance of the middle classes’ culture to the spread of the culture of the poor, the main feature of which is the struggle for survival. The essence of the socio-cultural transformation of post-Soviet Ukrainian society is the transition from the absolutism of the state to the absolutism of the market, which means the transformation of everything possible into a commodity, and the dominance of commodity-money relations in all spheres of public life. This transition was accompanied by a change in the historical and cultural type of human personality, commercialization, deprofessionalization, as well as the primitivization of public administration. Changes in the culture’s state have complicated the reproduction of society as a whole. The Soviet way of life has been dismantled, and the failure of the social matrix indicates that a new way of life in post-Soviet Ukraine has not yet been formed, and therefore socio-cultural transformation must be aimed at its formation. The practical value of the results lies in substantiating the content of socio-cultural transformation in post-Soviet Ukraine and its impact on the functioning of society.

Resumen: Partiendo de la revisión interpretativista que ha cuestionado la rigidez de la clásica noción de cultura política elaborada por Almond y Verba, así como la validez explicativa de su concepto de cultura cívica para dar cuenta del carácter democrático de los sistemas políticos, nos interrogamos acerca de en qué medida los recursos simbólicos que desde la Transición habrían logrado homogeneizar un imaginario de consenso pueden no ser capaces de soportar la emergencia de nuevas formas de representar lo colectivo. El presente trabajo trata de ubicar cuáles han sido los rasgos definitorios de la cultura política de la democracia española, con el fin de estimar la caducidad de los márgenes discursivos del complejo mítico que identificamos como “cultura de la Transición”. Palabras clave: cultura política, cultura cívica, transición a la democracia, consenso, crisis. Crisis of the Culture of the Transition?: Notes and reflections for a criticism of the Political Culture of Spanish Democracy Abstract: Starting from the interpretative revision that has questioned the rigidity of the classic notion of political culture elaborated by Almond and Verba, as well as the explanatory validity of its concept of civic culture to give an account of the democratic character of political systems, we question ourselves about How far the symbolic resources that since the Transition would have managed to homogenize an imaginary of consensus may not be able to withstand the emergence of new ways of representing the collective. The present work tries to locate the definitive features of the political culture of the Spanish democracy, with the purpose of estimate the expiration of the discursive margins of the mythical complex that we identify as "culture of the Transition". Keywords:political culture, civic culture, transition to democracy, consensus, crisis.

The paper deals with questions regarding the formation of the modern Ukrainian nation and, particularly, the impact of the political activities and writings of G. A. Poletika (1725–1784). The author reconstructs the context of the genesis of Poletika’s views of the history of “Malorossiya” and the Zaporozhian Host. The paper shows that the debates about the rights and duties of the nobility, in which Poletika was deeply involved, could not produce radically new political language capable of questioning the integrity of the Russian Empire. This, in turn, derives from the fact that preservation of “Malorossiyan rights” was an important element of political bargaining for the Ukrainian Cossack elite. The purpose of this bargain was to consolidate the privileged position of the Cossack elite. In Poletika’s writings, the ideal of the “Hetmanate” or independent “Ukrainian Cossack state,” as well as feelings about the loss of the “Ukrainian state,” was absent, even though this concept was common to all Malorossiyan social groups. The Cossack past was considered by Poletika as an “age of misfortune,” in contrast to the Polish times. The author concludes that there were significant ruptures in the process of building the modern Ukrainian nation.

Este artículo emprende un balance sobre el impacto del movimiento global de 1968 en la configuración del capitalismo contemporáneo, así como en el campo de las ciencias sociales. A diferencia de quienes sostienen que el movimiento cívico-estudiantil y la contracultura que le acompañó no tuvieron un impacto significativo en el ámbito político, aquí se afirma que la contracultura y los breves, pero intensos, momentos de experimentación de otras formas de participación política y de convivencia, junto con los valores contraculturales que le acompañaron, tuvieron una repercusión política, más allá de los modos de participación posibles en la democracia representativa.   Palabras clave: Movimiento estudiantil, Revolución, Contracultura The global ‘68’: Revolution and countercultureSummaryThis article undertakes an assessment of the impact of the global movement of 1968 on the configuration of contemporary capitalism, as well as in the field of social sciences. Unlike those who argue that the civic-student movement and the counterculture that accompanied it did not have a significant impact in the political sphere, here it is affirmed that the counterculture and the brief, but intense, moments of experimentation of other forms of political participation and of coexistence, along with the countercultural values that accompanied it, had a political repercussion, beyond the possible participation modes in representative democracy.Keywords: Student Movement, Revolution, Counterculture Le 68 global: Révolution et contrecultureRésuméCet article entreprend une balance de l’impact du mouvement global du 68 dans la configuration du capitalisme contemporain ainsi que dans le champ des sciences sociales.
