Becoming and Consumption
Becoming and Consumption uses the Spanish novels Alivio rapido;Veo, veo; Amor, curiosidad, prozac, y dudas; and Los placeres de Anastasia to explore the relationships between globalization, consumption, and economies of experiences that yield innovative ways to reexamine and recreate female subjectivity. While the four contemporary Spanish female writers_Susana Plane, Silvia Grijalba, Gabriela Bustelo, and Lucia Etxebarria_maintain distinct personal narratives, there exists a commonality among their work. Through consumption, the protagonists of these authors' works navigate a multiplicity of images and codes in their journey of becoming an active female subject, an agent with the potential to enact change and evolve. Bosse provides insight into the feminist philosophy and identity politics found in contemporary Spanish novels.

The place of folklore studies among modern academic disciplines has accordingly been marginal and precarious, yet folklore studies are foundational and persistent. Long engaged with all that escapes the gaze of grand theory an...

Tribus urbanas
El fenomeno de las tribus urbanas recibe, hoy en dia, una valoracion muy variada, en la que caben definiciones tan dispares como jovenes violentos y conformistas y rebeldes romanticos y enmascarados. Mas alla del juicio de valor; el texto que aqui presentamos primer estudio exhaustivo publicado en castellano sobre el tema intenta responder al muy difundido y en ocasiones morborso interes que la sociedad ha ido demostrando. Quienes son, que piensan y como viven esos miles de jovenes que se enrolan en grupos cuyo lema es siempre, la provocacion y el exceso y con frecuencia la violencia y la auto destruccion? Que caldo de cultivo sociocultural permite el surgimiento y la difusion de esos compor...
