Abstract

On January 14, 1934, municipal elections were held in Catalonia, which would became crucial for the further development of the events during that year. They had to replace all Catalan councils emerged from the elections of April 12 and were developed in a context of great political and social tension. In addition, for the first time in the history of our country women could participate equally with men in the election of councils. However, historiography has tended to ignore them, even to marginalize these elections, which represented a breaking point between right-wing and left-wing. This article aims to fill this gap and provide an overview of these elections.
