Abstract
En los años 50 y 60 del siglo pasado, el Real Madrid C. de F. se convirtió en el heraldo deportivo del “milagro español”, generando en España y el extranjero una oleada de admiración que, oportunamente capitalizada por el régimen franquista, convirtió al club en uno de los más eficaces difusores del “nacionalismo banal” que la dictadura quiso inculcar en la población, especialmente la emigrada. Esta imagen del Real Madrid como entidad deportiva de éxito internacional sirve de excusa para hacer una reflexión sobre las relaciones que se suelen establecer entre el deporte y el poder político, especial-mente en el vidrioso tema de las identidades nacionales.
In the 50s and 60s of the last century, Real Madrid Club of Football became the sportive herald of “Spanish miracle”, generating in Spain and abroad a wave of admiration that was promptly capitalized by the Franco regime. During the Francoism, the club became one of the most effective disseminators of “banal nationalism” that the dictatorship would inculcate in the population, especially the emigrants abroad. This image of Real Madrid as an internationally successful sport entity allows us to reflect on the relationships that are established between sport and political power, especially in the elusive theme of national identities.
