This first cross-national book-length study of street art as
political protest and communication focuses on art forms
traditionally used by collectives and state interests in the
Hispanic world--posters, wallpaintings, graffiti, murals, shirts,
buttons, and stickers, for example. Professor Chaffee examines the
motives behind the use of street art as propaganda and seeks to
explain how it is effective. Using field research and a
sociopolitical approach, he assesses contemporary street art in
Spain, the Basque country, Argentina, and Brazil. He shows how
street art is a barometer of popular conflicts and sentiments
across the political spectrum. This comparative analysis is
intended for students, teachers, and professionals in the fields of
communication, political science, history, and popular culture.
