Socioeconomic and territorial dynamics of bullfighting in contemporary Spain

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
This study explores the territorial, economic, and social factors impacting the evolution of bullfighting festivities in Spain. Using data from the Ministry of Culture and Sports, the research employs panel data regression models to analyze bullfighting celebrations from 2011 to 2019 before the COVID pandemic. Key findings include the significant role of public interest and attendance in bullfights, the varying responses of regions to the decline in festivities, and the influence of rural depopulation on this decline. Additionally, political factors, particularly support for animal welfare parties, negatively affect bullfighting celebrations, while economic indicators show no significant impact during the period studied.
