Dark Legacy of Child Abduction
This chapter examines the haunting history of child abduction during Franco's regime in Spain, focusing on the systematic kidnapping of children, especially from marginalized women. It connects these practices to broader themes of nationalism and the impact of oppressive policies on women's roles and family structures, both in Spain and under similar regimes like that of Ceaușescu in Romania. The discussion reveals the long-lasting effects of such policies on society, child welfare, and the challenges faced by women in oppressive systems.
