JEWS AND MUSLIMS IN CONTEMPORARY SPAIN - MARTIN...

The book analyzes the place of religious difference in late modernity through a study of the
role played by Jews and Muslims in the construction of contemporary Spanish national identity.
The focus is on the transition from an exclusive  homogeneous sense of collective Self toward a
more pluralistic  open and tolerant one in an European context. This process is approached from
different dimensions. At the national level  it follows the changes in nationalist
historiography  the education system and the public debates on national identity. At the
international level  it tackles the problem from the perspective of Spanish foreign policy
towards Israel and the Arab-Muslim states in a changing global context. From the
social-communicational point of view  the emphasis is on the construction of the Self¿Other
dichotomy (with Jewish and Muslim others) as reflected in the three leading Spanish newspapers.
