LORENZO, Manuel Ferraz. THE PURIFYING PROCESS IN PRIMARY EDUCATION DURING FRANCO'S SPAIN: A CASE STUDY IN THE PROVINCE OF SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.23, e81871.  Epub Sep 13, 2019. ISSN 2236-3459.  https://doi.org/10.1590/2236-3459/81871.

The paper that we present tries to analyze the repression process developed in the primary education from July of 1936. We need to take into consideration that the coup d'état broke out in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife and that the repressive measures should be conclusive and exemplary for the rest of the areas submitted afterwards. In addition to the political authorities, teachers were one of the groups most persecuted and repressed for their educational, cultural and social activities. The speed and forcefulness of the arrests and convictions are clearly reflected in the civil and military documents. The methodology used focuses on the analysis and interpretation of archival data, official bulletins and the press consulted at the time with a qualitative approach.

Keywords : Franco's dictatorship; repression; Canary Islands; primary education; teachers.
