Postcolonial Spain: Coloniality, Violence and Independence: Iberian and Latin American Studies

Editat de Helena Miguélez-Carballeira
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 iul 2024
A collection of essays illuminating the specificity of Spain’s postcolonial condition while offering a new look at Spain's internal national conflict.

At times explosive, at times restrained, the question of independence has been a fundamental force shaping contemporary Spain. However, the discipline of Spanish (Peninsular) studies has been slow to consider the reality of internal anticolonial and self-determination movements in Spain as part of their scope. Postcolonial Spain: Coloniality, Violence and Independence is the first book in Spanish (Peninsular) studies to engage with the question of independence as a major structuring factor in post-1898 Spanish culture and politics. It engages postcolonial theory to shed light on the question of Spain’s ongoing internal national conflict, arguing that modern manifestations of such conflict are linked to internal demands for national sovereignty, independence, and self-determination. It addresses topics such as late nineteenth-century penitentiary discourses, the biopolitics of Francoist agrarian reform, dispossession and mass tourism in Mallorca, the judiciary aftermath of the Catalan referendum on independence of 2017, and post-ETA memory politics.
