AB The 1940s were one of the darkest, most dramatic and ill-fated times ofcontemporary Spain. After a long and fierce civil war, the Franco regime achievedinstitutional stability and political hegemony through measures of extremelyharsh physical and psychological repression. The purges, summary trials and executionsdestroyed the last of explicit resistance and served as a warning to the population. Alongwith the memories of war and economic hardship, these acts meant that any explicit dissentwas extremely difficult. However, as has been discussed for some years now, betweencollaboration and passivity, between consensus and conflict, there were a set of examplesof discontent and even resistance that, in the long term, would erode the regime but, atthe same time, made it bearable for millions of Spaniards. This article adds a practice tothe list of these daily resistances that has gone unnoticed by most historians, sociologists,and musicologists: modern popular dances. The period analysed runs from the end of theSpanish Civil War, in 1939, to the beginning of the Cold War, in 1947.
