The Diaspora Flamenquista: New-Nationalism of Flamenco in and out of Post-Francoist Spain

Abstract: 

Although flamenco is ichnographicaly linked with Spain, the globalization (diaspora) of flamenco affords a new consideration of nationalism. The cult of flamenco creates a pseudo-nation, one that is oriented with the production of an imaginary nationality through the consecration of a geographical and cultural space.
