Spanish Fascist Writing presents the first collection of Spanish
fascist texts in English translation and offers an intellectual and
political history of fascist writing in Spain, a history that
resituates the country within the larger unfolding of right-wing
extremism worldwide from the early twentieth century to the
present. The manifestos, newspaper articles, essays, letters, and
pieces of prose fiction gathered in this volume demonstrate why the
Spanish case proves essential to a comprehensive understanding of
fascism in general. These Spanish fascist texts also highlight the
need for comparative analysis in order to better grasp the
transnational character of fascism, fascism's profound roots in
colonialism, fascism's multiple temporalities, and the rise in
recent years of right-wing extremism throughout the world. In
short, Spanish Fascist Writing takes Spain from the margins to the
forefront of fascist studies.
Spain Is (Still) Different addresses both theoretical perspectives
on the study of tourism in Spain and specific cases of the cultural
impact of travel and tourism on Spanish culture in the late
eighteenth to early twenty-first centuries. With contributions from
experts in leisure and culture studies, literature, film, and art
historians from Spain, the UK, and the U.S., this innovative
multi-disciplinary volume introduces readers to methodological and
practical issues concerning the cultural function of tourism in
Spain. The main body of contributions comes from the area of
cultural studies. In the introduction, Afinoguenova and
Marti-Olivella provide a comprehensive overview of the problematic
of tourism in Spain and of diverse approaches to the study of
tourism in its relation to Spanish culture. Unlike other
collections on tourism studies, this book is aimed to bridge the
gap between the social sciences and the humanities. It is
structured to provide an example of how experts in different fields
can use each other's work in order to achieve a multi-faceted
understanding of the phenomenon of tourism and its implications."
