Confessional intensity: a Spanish example with application to the literacy process

Author

  • Gutiérrez, José Manuel

Abstract

The Kulturkampf set off by article 26 of the Constitution of the Second Spanish Republic is used to construct a proxy variable for the intensity of confessional allegiance in Spain. The correlation between literacy and confessional intensity is then considered in two points in time during the Spanish literacy process.
