Abstract

Habitually, when we talk about Francoism repression we tend to think about firing squad executions and prison sentences. Obviously, Franco’s justice meant much more than that and intended to reach labour purges. Those who were not dead or in prison had to face their job loss now. To know how this repression machine worked, the records related to the civil servant purges have been consulted, both in the City Council and the County Council of Guadalajara. On the basis of the law that regulated this process, the cases related to these two institutions have been analysed, establishing the parts that formed these files and the functioning of both courts. Fruit of this analysis, it will be seen how in some cases there is a change of “cards”; purged civil servants in 1936 could recover their positions, while those who had taken on their post in July 1936 were now barred.
