This dissertation examines the cultural and political changes of the transition in Spain through a case study of photojournalistic practices and representations. Specifically, the study focuses on the work of four Catalan photojournalists, Manel Armengol, Pilar Aymerich, Paco Elvira and Jordi Socías, and addresses the question of how photojournalism, as practiced by these photojournalists, contributed to the cultural and political changes and the democratization process of the nineteen-seventies, in the final years of the dictatorship and the early post-Franco period. A dual purpose is to examine the emergence of an innovative aesthetic which, this study will argue, departed from existing photojournalistic conventions and which, as a result, can be read as subversive.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation examines the cultural and political changes of the transition in Spain through a case study of photojournalistic practices and representations. Specifically, the study focuses on the work of four Catalan photojournalists, Manel Armengol, Pilar Aymerich, Paco Elvira and Jordi Socías, and addresses the question of how photojournalism, as practiced by these photojournalists, contributed to the cultural and political changes and the democratization process of the nineteen-seventies, in the final years of the dictatorship and the early post-Franco period. A dual purpose is to examine the emergence of an innovative aesthetic which, this study will argue, departed from existing photojournalistic conventions and which, as a result, can be read as subversive.
520 $a The theoretical framework includes Antonio Gramsci's conception of hegemony as cultural leadership acquired through a process of consensus, Raymond Williams' application of Gramsci's work to a conception of culture as consisting of different, competing cultural spheres, as well as Stuart Hall's critique of the role of media representations in reproducing hegemony. Furthermore, the study draws on critical perspectives on photography which emphasize questions of ideology and power, including the work of Walter Benjamin, Allan Sekula and Roland Barthes.
520 $a The analysis of research findings is interpretative and uses a combination of cultural analysis of practices and semiotic analyses of images in context. Based on findings in interviews and archival research, this dissertation argues that the specific application of photojournalism studied constituted a counter-hegemony effort. Specifically, this effort contributed to the democratization process during the transition in Spain, in three ways. Firstly, through a subversive visual aesthetic which departed from photojournalistic conventions; secondly, through image-makers' alignment with and representations of the opposition and other social and cultural forces and individuals; and third, through the deployment of photographs in pro-democracy publications and other contexts.
