This unit extends the abilities of students studying Spanish at an advanced level by studying the social and political movements in Spain and Latin American that are shaping their development. The unit looks into the impact of ethnic/regional, anti-globalisation and social justice movements, such as ETA in Spain; the Resources Wars in Bolivia; and the Piqueteros in Argentina. It is expected that through lectures and seminars students learn about the synergy of the Hispanic world and become inspired to embark on further research on the topic. -- Course Website
