The Spanish economic crisis and recent social mobilizations have renewed interest in critically rethinking cultural, social, and political circumstances. Critical readings mark two main loci as the stages of activity: cultural production largely of fringe status, and protests and assemblies in public spaces throughout Spanish cities. Pairing cultural analysis in urban contexts with interdisciplinary approaches to political culture, Jonathan Snyder argues that recent cultural production - including narrative, poetry, photography, theatre, and performance - in Spain grapples with the conditions and possibilities for social transformation in dialogue with the ongoing crisis, neoliberal governance, and political culture in Spain’s democratic history.
