This interdisciplinary volume focuses on the ways in which cultural practices serve the purposes of identity formation. It introduces readers to a range of theoretical debates as well as informing them about specific areas of twentieth-century Spanish culture: ethnography, music, TV, advertising, popular literature, medical discourse, film, posters, museums, and urban development.
This volume is designed to further the study of Spanish culture in the broad sense of the network of symbolic systems through which social groups construct and negotiate a sense of identity or identities. The emphasis is on culture as a set of practices rather than as a corpus of texts. The aim is to introduce readers to current theoretical debates in a range of disciplines, as well as to inform them about specific areas of twentieth-century Spanish culture. The four sections on ''Ethnicity and Migration'', ''Gender'', ''Popular Culture'', and ''The Local and the Global'' cover ethnography, music, TV, advertising, popular literature, medical discourse, film, posters, museums, and urban development.
