  Spanish syndicalism within the framework of international relations

  The case of the General Workers Unions (1888-1986)

  The emergence of a labour movement, of socialist obedience, more specifically, in Spain, goes hand in hand with internationalism. From its creation, in 1888, the General Union of Workers (UGT) has tried to incorporate the international labour movement. Thus, through time, UGT joined the main organizations such as the International Federation of Trade Unions, the World Federation of Trade Unions, the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions and the European Trade Union Confederation. The UGT also takes part in the work by the International Labour Organization and fosters relations with other foreign organisations. Finally, the UTG is involved with international solidarity groups and organisations dealing with social security like the Democratic Solidary organisation in Spain. To this day, few studies have been conducted on the importance of those links on the growth of the UGT, notably at some crucial moments of its existence such as the Francoist dictatorship and the transition towards democracy. These relations played a decisive part in the survival of  socialist trade unions.

  Les défis de l'indépendance : la formation de l'État et de la nation en Amérique latine

  Dans le contexte des commémorations des bicentaires des indépendances latino-américaines et en rapport avec la problématique d'un des sujets de civilisation du programme de l'agrégation d'espagnol, ces journées feront le point sur les recherches concernant le processus de formation de l'État et de la nation entre 1808 et 1910. Les journées combineront les approches globales (pour en dégager les éléments communs à tout le continent) avec l'étude de cas (le Mexique, le Pérou, la Colombie, le Vénézuéla). La dimension internationale de cette construction sera sera également analysée, avec une attention particulière pour le problème de la reconnaissance internationale et l'insertion des nouveaux états.
