Global Spain

This Duke in Spain course draws from comparative perspectives across countries and cultures. It links Madrid's socio-cultural turning points vis-à-vis national and international migration to other geographies where Spanish is spoken. Forming a nexus with broader Spanish-language mobile circuits––as evinced, for example, through U.S. Latino/a/x populations––this seminar explores the Spanish capital as a global urban epicenter and primary destination site for migrants from Africa, the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Prerequisite: Spanish 204 or equivalent.
