A Shared Amnesia: Understanding the Current Immigration in Spain and the USA – Feb 26, 2018, 5:00 pm – RCC

A Shared Amnesia: Understanding the Current Immigration in Spain and the USA

   —      A talk by Raquel Vega-Durán     —    
Associate Professor, Claremont McKenna College  and  Senior Lecturer, Harvard University

  —  Monday, February 26 at 5:00pm Real Colegio Complutense  —
26 Trowbridge St, Cambridge

            Spaniards have emigrated for centuries, and emigration has become an integral part of Spanish identity. Those who left Spain became immigrants in their host countries, but from Spain’s point of view they have always been emigrants, always connected to their motherland. In the last 30 years, Spain has changed from being a country of net emigration to a country that receives immigrants, and this immigration has been presented in the government and media rhetoric as something new and alien. An alternate narrative has emerged in turn in Spanish literature, film, and photographic exhibits, where Spanish emigration appears juxtaposed to the current immigration in Spain to create a deeper understanding of the complex identity of the migrant. This talk will examine examples of how this new narrative is challenging the amnesia of an immigrant past and questioning the dominant difference between Spaniards and immigrants. The talk will end with a reflection on how this current debate in Spain can cast new light on long-standing debates in the United States, where immigration has become a major concern in political and economic discourses.

Social Democracy and Regionalism at the Roman Theatre of Sagunt – 03-15-2017 – 6:30 pm. at RCC

Join us:

Social Democracy and Regionalism at the Roman Theatre of Sagunt

By:

Manuel López Segura, a PhD candidate in Architecture and Urban Planning at Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD). 

With the advent of democracy and the quasi-federalization of Spain during the 1980s, regions assumed unprecedented powers over heritage policy. In the Valencian Country, an area with a distinctive culture and language, nationalist claims tainted debates on preservation. These phenomena are well exemplified by the restoration project for the Roman theatre of Sagunt (ca. 50 AD), which the Valencian autonomous government commissioned in 1984. We will discuss that restoration in the light of the political tensions that surrounded the government’s social-democratic agenda, which aimed at the reconstruction of an egalitarian public realm and of a long-repressed regional identity.
