Envisioning Latin America: Power and Representation in audiovisual (re)productions
This issue seeks to critically address power structures in audiovisual (re)productions in and from Latin America and discuss how these play a role in the societal construction and representation of individual and collective identities, the ‘us’ and the ‘other’. By doing so, it aims at understanding how these representations – and broader discourses associated therewith – can be critically examined through media productions (cinema, television, radio, photography etc.) and their use as historical sources.

Conference, symposium - History
Le concept « économie soutenable », qui peut sembler très récent, et qui est dévenu une sorte de « mantra » aux discourses des politiciens, est en réalité très ancien, si bien avec une sens très different de celui actuel. Dans un monde où la production en masse été encore inconcebible, donner une « deuxième vie » a les choses été souvent une besoin. Mais,en plus, dans quelques cas il y avait aussi un culte reverenciel aux objectes du passé, de façon que le réemploi et le recyclage étaient des realités inherents a les sociétés médievales, directement liées à leur survie et même à leur identité.

The Transatlantic Embrace: Spanish Civil War in America’s Intimate Distance
Spanish Civil War has been studied under its multiple angles. This can also be said about the literature concerning this topic: novels, poems, and all literary forms generated by this armed conflict (both by Spanish and foreign intellectuals) have been commented by academic criticism from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. However, fewer approaches have set the axis of their critical focus on the importance of the Spanish conflict in America and its decisive relevance as a part of a phenomenon that is also American. This special number of the FORMA journal sets out to give a voice to all types of contributions able to shed a new light on this fundamental aspect of the war, whose causes and consequences are clearly rooted in Spain, but whose horizon overflows the peninsular and continental borders and requires an inevitably transatlantic point of view.
