SPA 256 - Race, Racialization, and Ethnocentricity in Spain

3 Credits
Offered periodically or as needed
The course explores the role that race, racialization, and ethnicity played in the construction of Francoist’s Spain between 1939-1975. We focus on accounts of state racism, ethnic hygiene, and ethnocentric practices and their impact in reshaping the lives of marginalized groups–women, the vanquished in the Civil war, colonial Spain, Spanish Roma/Gipsy. These groups suffered social, mental, and racial hygiene, ethnic cleansing, antigypsyism, and/or colonial violence.
