Abstract

The Disintegration in 1939 of the Socialized Shoe Industry in Barcelona

After remembering the importance of the revolutionary socialization or collectivi- zation of the leather industry in Barcelona and its province (1936-1938), this paper presents and analyses the deconcentration process the Francoist authorities realized in 1939 to return the shoemaking businesses to their owners. The investigation, based on little-used archival sources, tries to assess whether there has been any malfeasance and what was really the financial loss after socialization.
