Reviews

"" Control and Resistance closes a huge gap in our understanding of Francoism and brings a wealth of previously unexplored primary sources and a rich repertoire of new theoretical tools into the field of study of Spanish Cultural Studies. It also ties together the issues of patriarchy, social control, domesticity, textuality, and nation-building, all through the exciting and under-researched set of sources."" --Eugenia Afinoguénova, Department of Languages, Literatures, and Cultures, Marquette University "" Control and Resistance is an important work in the study of modern Spain's 'foodways' (food in relation to culture and gastronomy) and its intersection with the country's history, politics and culture. The research is solid, and the texts examined will inspire further research."" --H. Rosi Song, Department of Hispanic Studies, University of Durham
