La casa de España en México

Siempre se ha pensado que con el final de la Guerra Civil espanola y la derrota de la Segunda Republica en 1939, Mexico rompio toda relacion con el regimen de Francisco Franco, ya que hasta la muerte del dictador en 1976 solo reconocio como legal al gobierno republicano en el exilio. Los estudios que integran este libro muestran una historia distinta. Si bien las relaciones oficiales estuvieron interrumpidas, los acercamientos entre ambos paises se produjeron activamente y con frecuencia.

El eje central de este libro es la presencia española en México en los siglos XIX y XX, pero también se explora su inserción más amplia en América Latina y se incursiona en tiempos anteriores para conocer las características plurares de los inmigrantes y los exiliados peninsulares en el nuevo continente. Además la autora examina la cara más oculta de las etnicidades en contacto, no sólo las asimilaciones e integraciones fecundas, sino las valoraciones antagónicas y el rechazo irreconciliable del contrario.
