Description

The file on the reopening of the CADCI between February and May 1936 is a key document to understand the repression and resistance of the Catalan trade union movement. Dissolved following the Events of October 1934, the CADCI was restored with the arrival of the Popular Front, in a context of recovery of freedoms and rights. This document reflects the resilience of labor organizations and their ability to reorganize in the face of repression. It is also an example of the importance of trade unionism as a tool for political participation and democratic construction. Its reopening symbolizes the will to rebuild a fairer and more participatory society, in tune with the progressive European ideals of the moment.
