Since 1931, the Second Republic has been implementing a vast educational plan that has made it possible to build thousands of schools. Educational missions by the people, the creation of mobile libraries and an endless number of similar initiatives made it possible to gain access to the culture of large sectors of the population that had until then been traditionally forgotten by the public authorities, while the press and the media were undergoing an unprecedented development. The State Secretariat for Democratic Memory of the Ministry of the Presidency, Relations with the Courts and Democratic Memory and the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Valladolid have organized the following colloquium, face-to-face and online, in which prominent historians participated who reflected on the cultural initiatives of that democratic experience that was the Second Republic, established 90 years ago.
