Abstract

Scouting, under the protection of the Catholic Church, was an alternative to the official approach taken to associations during Francos dictatorship and a useful formula to bring up the young people of Catalonia in a way that was not pro-Spain. A group in Ripoll, in 1963, demostrated the movements ability to mobilise the dioceses of Barcelona, Girona and Vic. At that time, as a result of one of the activities organised there, Ripoll took the lead by welcoming Brecht and staging eminently political plays. The monitoring of these events by officials from the pro-Franco Frente de Juventudes (Youth Front) and the subsequent reaction by the authorities revealed the mental limitations and weaknesses of the political System.
