description Captivity and forced labour played a key role in the construction of the New State after the military coup in July 1936. In spite of this importance, there is still an important lack of knowledge about its roots, logics and development when giving an overall picture about Franco’s dictatorship.

We aim to stress the importance of this system within Spanish contemporary historiography, taking into account different approaches from researches, social movements and public policies.
