This space of dissent emerged within the margins of what is traditionally considered the official space of Barcelona, highlighting the interconnectedness of urbanism, literature, and photography in shaping the political, social, and cultural movements that emerged in the 1970s. Olga Sendra Ferrer draws upon theoretical readings on built environments, neighborhoods, housing projects, and developments, as well as everyday life within Spanish urban spaces. Through literature and photography, she demonstrates the political significance.value of cultural production and forms of cultural representation that arise from marginalized zones—those pushed aside by exclusionary politics, fascist forms of control, surveillance, and homogenization. In seeking to trace the origins of the protest movements and counterculture that emerged in the final years of the Franco regime, Barcelona, City of Margins emphasizes the significance of urban movement and cultural practice as a challenge to the spatial and urbanistic regime of Francoism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 540g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 231 x 163 x 28 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781487508487\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Olga Sendra Ferrer","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105391210746,"sku":"9781487508487","price":24.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1648205511521_book.jpg?v=1648225433","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/barcelona-city-of-margins-9781487508487","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
