Title: Transatlantic Resp of Narcoc
Course Section Number: SPA-312-02
Department: Spanish
Description: FACE TO FACE COURSE. Narcoculture, which began as a form of expression for drug cartels in Mexico and Colombia, has grown in popularity and impacted artforms, dress, language, and religion. This course analyzes representations of narcoculture, from the early twentieth century to the present, in a transatlantic sociopolitical context between Colombia, Mexico, Spain, and the United States. Fundamental issues include the impact on violence, wealth and poverty, as well as masculinity and gender roles. Students will use a variety of artforms-music, literature, film, and television-to develop analytical skills for class discussion and critical essays
