HISP 340 - Nationalism, Culture, and Politics Under and After Dictatorship: Spain and Yugoslavia in the Twentieth Century


1.5 SS, 1.5 HU, CD

Second Semester. The 20 th-century histories of Spain and Yugoslavia run surprisingly parallel, but have resulted in widely different outcomes. Why? This course explores these and other questions by analyzing the interaction among nationalism, culture, and politics in both countries through sociological, historical, literary and visual materials, including novels and films. Special attention is paid to the politics of late state-building, the rise of competing nationalisms, civil wars and their legacies, dictatorship, collective memories, democratic transition (Spain), and state collapse (Yugoslavia). Taught in English.
