Arreglando España
En este libro se afrontan temas «casi prohibidos», como la poca utilidad del senado, la prostitución, la religión católica, el aborto, la mayoría de edad, la independencia, la sanidad, las universidades, la eutanasia activa, la tercera edad, la armonización fiscal, la monarquía, los violadores, la justicia... hasta veinticinco temas tabú cuando se trata de expresar en público lo que uno realmente piensa de ellos. Opiniones, críticas y sugerencias, recogidas «en la calle» y mostradas aquí con transparencia y sin recato, esperando que algo sea útil a los «empoderados» de cualquier «familia» de nuestra España actual: políticos, Iglesia, militares, jueces, IBEX35, rectores universitarios... y el resto de poderes fácticos de nuestro país. Solo un grano de arena para que nos hagan caso. Pero es en vuestras manos, amables lectores, donde se encuentra la posibilidad de extender el mensaje.
Twenty-First Century Arab and African Diasporas in Spain, Portugal and Latin America
This volume considers the Arabic and African diasporas through the underexplored Afro-Hispanic, Luso-Africans, and Mahjari (South American and Mexican authors of Arab descent) experiences in Spain, Portugal, and Latin America. Utilizing both established and emerging approaches, the authors explore the ways in which individual writers and artists negotiate the geographical, cultural, and historical parameters of their own diasporic trajectories influenced by their particular locations at home and elsewhere. At the same time, this volume sheds light on issues related to Spain, Portugal, and Latin American racial, ethnic, and sexual boundaries; the appeal of images of the Middle East and Africa in the contemporary marketplace; and the role of Spanish, Portuguese, and Latin American economic crunches in shaping attitudes towards immigration. This collection of thought-provoking chapters extends the concepts of diaspora and transnationalism, forcing the reader to reassess their present limitations as interpretive tools. In the process, Afro-Hispanic, Afro-Portuguese, and Mahjaris are rendered visible as national actors and transnational citizens.
The Business of Tourism
The Business of Tourism transports readers from the foundations of mass leisure travel in 1860s Egypt to contemporary religious sight-seeing in Branson, Missouri; from the Stalinist Soviet Union to post-Soviet Cuba. This collection of ten essays explores the enterprises, institutions, and technologies of tourist activity.
