Abstract

This article goes into the study of Spanish Civil post-war effects in the nutritional conditions and health of the populations. It analyses the impact the Civil War (1936-1939) and francoist autarchy (1940-1959) had in the biological standards of living of the Valencian rural populations. We have built series of medium heights from the height data of conscripts who were measured in diverse Valencian rural municipalities. The results show that drafts height of Civil War continued increasing and was truncated when the francoist autarchy started. Conscripts who lived in irrigated areas were taller than those who lived in dry farming areas. Finally, social inequalities in height according to the occupation and literacy teaching of conscripts in the diverse Valencian rural world are shown for the period 1940-1950.
