Gipuzkoako landa auzoetan Udalek eta Aldundiak garatu duten hezkuntza-jarduera

Abstract

This article describes the work carried out by the Councils of Guipuzcoa, the Provincial Council and the inhabitants of the rural neighbourhoods (baserritarrak) to develop childhood education and the schools in those neighbourhoods during the XVIII, XIX and XX centuries. The special situation of the neighbourhoods and quarters of Guipuzcoa (scattered baserris, difficult financial situation, lack of motivation towards school both in children and parents, religious influences, jagged terrain...) conditioned children’s education in these areas. The action of the church in this respect also needsto be highlighted.
