Abstract


During the early decades of the 20th century, the Spanish socio-sanitary situation was described as catastrophic, both in the urban as well as in the rural setting. In that context, sanitation emerged as one of the key elements of the regeneration process taken on by hygiene in its role as mediator. Through the works of hygienists G. de Membrillera and Luis Muñoz Antuñano, published in 1921, we have approached the analysis of the sanitary situation of rural Spain during this period.
