Focusing on Spanish culture and society in the second half of the
Twentieth century, Despotic Bodies and Transgressive Bodies
traverses a variety of disciplines: literature, film studies,
cultural studies, feminist theory, and history, to examine crucial
moments of cultural transition. Beginning with an analysis of the
period of autarky -- Spain's economic, cultural, and ideological
isolation under Francisco Franco's regime -- Pavlovic then explores
the tumultuous passage to capitalism in the late 1950s and 1960s.
She follows this by revisiting the complex political situation
following Franco's death and points out the difficulties in Spain's
transition from dictatorship to democracy.
