This thematic cycle features discussions on the local history of Sants, focusing on 'Ludism in Sants, from the Self-acting Conflict of 1854 to the General Strike of 1855', presented by Agus Giralt. In 1846, the Vapor Vell textile factory commenced operations, mimicking the Manchester model and marking the beginning of the self-acting revolution in the Catalan industry. However, this advancement was accompanied by a deepening precariousness in the working conditions of female spinners. We will explore the conflict surrounding these self-acting machines in 1854 and the path that led to the first major general strike in 1855. The lecture, led by historian Agus Giralt and a member of the association Memòria en Moviment, promises to offer a profound insight into this important chapter in local labor history.
