SPAN 223 - Food and Politics in Spain
In this graduate seminar, we delve into the complex relationship between food and politics in Spain. We explore how food has played a crucial role in shaping the diverse cultures and national identities within the country. Additionally, we discuss topics such as the significance of "national products" and their role in nation branding, as well as the impact of food scarcity during Franco's dictatorship. Our approach will be multidisciplinary, incorporating scholarly books, cookbooks, and other materials to provide a comprehensive understanding of the topic. Furthermore, we will have guest speakers who will share their expertise and insights on the subject.
