"Transnationality is a paradigm that currently impacts heavily on the Humanities. Surprisingly, Hispanic culture has not yet been of primary concern to transnational studies, even though, covering a very wide geo-cultural area , the case for its inclusion as a case study is undeniable. The research centres collaborating in this application share a clear interest in transnationality, and specialize in different areas of contemporary Hispanic culture (Spain, Latin America, Hispanic migrant culture). A structured plan of mobility, spanning four years, will involve an ambitious collective research programme that addresses Hispanic transnationality at large, focusing on strategically chosen cultural areas, and maximizing complementary knowledge and expertise in the cultural field (literature, photography, film). Given that Europe is a transnational project heavily relying on cultural affinities, this project is likely to contribute to reflection on complex European problems in an era of accelerated globalization, such as migration, cultural memory, and multiple citizenship."
