      Popular mobilization, Christian oligarchy and the Francophone press in Lebanon during the Mandate. (English)
    • Abstract:
      the political upheaval in the decade of the 30s in Lebanon represents an important historical moment of national consolidation, which final outcome will be the formal independence with the National Pact of 1943. In these years, with the country under the authority of the French Mandate, it is possible to recognise the consolidation of a demanding national bourgeoisie with a growing unconformity due to the prerogatives of French companies. The Lebanese Francophone press, directly related to the two main blocks of the Christian oligarchy, became a tool in their hands in order to move their criticism towards the Mandate and against each other. The article highlights the strict relation between a part of the Christian elites agenda with these years' demonstrations, and it wants to shed light on the use of the media by these oligarchies.

    • Abstract:
      El fermento político de la década de los años 30 en Líbano representa un importante momento histórico de consolidación nacional que llevará a la formal independencia del país con el Pacto Nacional de 1943. En esta fase, con el país bajo el Mandato francés, se distingue la presencia de una burguesía nacional que empieza a mirar con recelo las prerrogativas de las empresas francesas. La prensa francófona libanesa, directamente relacionada con la oligarquía cristiana, se vuelve en esta coyuntura una herramienta en sus manos para criticar el Mandato y atacar el adversario político en la lucha para el poder con mira al futuro Líbano independiente. El artículo destaca la estricta relación entre la agenda política y económica de una parte de las elites cristianas con las movilizaciones populares y el uso de los medios de comunicación por parte de estas oligarquías.
