[ES] Una vez que se produce el alzamiento militar contra la Segunda República, el nuevo estado
franquista nacido del mismo, tras haberse sumado a su causa la Iglesia católica, comienza una
labor para acabar con el “anticlericalismo”. Para ello utilizará toda su maquinaria jurídica, lo
que tendrá como objetivo que todas las disposiciones laicas de la Segunda República
(promulgadas al amparo de su constitución) queden derogadas y sean sustituidas por ocho de
Leyes Fundamentales, un Acuerdo sobre la presentación de obispos y un Concordato. Sin
embargo, a raíz del Concilio Vaticano II este “nacionalcatolicismo” se convertirá en un
distanciamiento entre lo que hasta ese momento habían sido los dos poderes del estado, el
poder espiritual y el poder político.
[EN] Once the military uprising against the Second Republic took place, the new Franco's State that
was born from it, after the Catholic Church had joined his cause, begins work to end "Anticlericalism".
To make that happen, he would use all his legal machinery, whose goal would be
that every secular provision remaining of the Second Republic (enacted under the Spanish
Constitution) would be repealed and replaced by Eight Fundamental Laws, an Agreement
about the bishops' presentation and a Concordat. Nevertheless, as a result of the Vatican
Council II, this "National Catholicism" would be the cause of an estrangement between what
until that moment had been the two powers of the state, the spiritual power and the political
power.
