During the last two decades Spain has attracted a rising number of immigrant communities from North Africa, Latin America and Eastern Europe. In this course, our goal will be to examine portrayals of how immigration has transformed Spain and continues to change the face of Spanish national identity. We will examine and discuss concepts of “race,” “culture” and “ethnicity” within the literary and audio-visual works studied in the class in their social and historical contexts. Taught in Spanish.
