Abstract
La madera ha sido y sigue siendo un material empleado por el hombre
en multitud de aplicaciones, pero apenas ha merecido la atención de los historiadores
económicos. El artículo quiere mostrar la diversidad de la problemática
económica de la madera y la necesidad de que sea objeto de futuras
investigaciones. Se analizan los aspectos forestales, industriales y comerciales
de la madera en España, entre mediados del siglo XIX y mediados del siglo XX,
teniendo en cuenta los cambios que se estaban produciendo en el uso de
la madera y en la evolución de los mercados internacionales. Entre las conclusiones,
destaca la «maderización» de la producción forestal española, el
incremento y difusión de los aserraderos, la complementariedad de la producción
nacional con la madera importada, y el descapitalizador autoabastecimiento
de los años de la autarquía.
Wood has always been and will continué being a material used bay man in thousands of different ways, but it has barely received the attention it deserves from economic historians. This article aims to show the great variety of economic problems related to wood as well as to Illustrate the need to carry out further research on this matter. Forest, industrial and commercial aspects of wood in Spain from mid-XIX to mid-XX century, taking into account the changes produced in wood use and in the evolution of international markets, are analysed. The most important conclusions of the study include the «lumbering » of Spanish forest production, the increase and spread of sawmills, the complementing of national production with imported timber and the self-sufficient descapitalisation of the autharchic years.
