SIGNED: 4 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the support of a wide range of people and institutions. The nine months of field research were generously supported by a Fulbright Fellowship, co-sponsored by the U.S. State Department and the Spanish Ministerio de Asvintos Exteriores, and administered by the Institute of International Education. A pre- dissertation research trip was funded by a Tinker Foundation Grant, which was administered by the Latin America Area Center at the University of Arizona. This research, and the incredible experience doing it, would not have been possible otherwise. Thank you. I am also indebted to the intellectual support I enjoyed at the University of Arizona, and particularly in the Department of Geography and Regional Development. For my main advisor I was lucky enough to have Sallie Marston, whose careful and balanced application of critical guidance and personal support was extremely effective. Also on my doctoral committee were Diana Liverman and George Henderson in my major of geography, and Richard Bribes and Laura Huntoon in my minor of planning. I benefited much from their constructive critique and friendship. I must also mention my gratitude to Malcolm Compitello of the Department of Spanish and Portuguese, whose mentorship and friendship made my choice of this university a particvilarly fortuitous one. I am particularly anxious to acknowledge the support of those in Valencia who made this project, and this research experience, so valuable. Josep Vicent Boira of the Universitat de Valencia was the first contact I made there, and became both my guide to the city and a valued colleague. He remains a treasured friend. There are many others in Valencia who helped us find our way, too nvimerous to name. But I appreciate them aU. In terms of institutions, I am particularly thankful for the generous assistance of the librarians of the BibHoteca Valenciana. My most heartfelt gratitude, however, goes to my family who supported this prolonged endeavor. I couldn't be luckier. 5 To ICathleen, who is everything. And to Ella, who joined us for the ride. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS 9 LIST OF TABLES 9 ABSTRACT 10 PREFACE 12 CHAPTER ONE: Introduction Globalization, RegionaUsm, and the Ciiltural Landscape 17 Planning and the New 'Europe of the Regions' 21 Theorizing Globalization as a Matter of Scale 26 Valencia, an Emblematic City of European Change 30 A Temr Via?

  • Valencia City Guide 2022
    VALENCIA CITY GUIDE - THINGS TO SEE AND DO See inside for details about getting around, sightseeing, shopping, nightlife and more Welcome to Valencia Spain’s third-largest city is a magnificent place, content for Madrid and Barcelona to grab the headlines while it gets on with being a wonderfully liveable city with thriving cultural, eating and nightlife scenes. Never afraid to innovate, Valencia diverted its flood-prone river to the outskirts and converted the former riverbed into a glorious green ribbon of park winding right through the city. On it are the strikingly futuristic buildings of the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias, designed by local boy Santiago Calatrava. Other brilliant contemporary buildings grace the city, which also has a fistful of fabulous Modernista buildings, great museums, a long stretch of beach and a large, characterful old quarter. Valencia, surrounded by its huerta, a fertile zone of market gardens, is famous as the home of rice dishes such as paella, but its buzzy dining scene offers plenty more besides; it's a superb spot for eating. Getting around Walking If you have some time on your hands, there's no better way to get around Valencia than by walking. It will give you the opportunity to really take in your surroundings. You can take a walk around the old town or even head down the reconstructed river bed to the City of Art and Sciences and the beach. Valencia is a relatively small city, so if you have the time, make the most of your break and take a relaxing stroll Buses Taking buses around Valencia will offer you the opportunity to get around the city whilst seeing the sights as you travel.

  • Inside Spain 34
    Inside Spain 34 William Chislett Foreign Policy Spanish and Cuban Governments Re-open Political Dialogue After Four-Year Gap Spain and Cuba reached an agreement outside of the EU’s common policy and re- established full co-operation with the government of Fidel Castro. An institutional mechanism was also put in place to discuss all political issues including human rights, although Felipe Pérez Roque, the Cuban Foreign Minister, reiterated Havana’s well- known position that those in prison were ‘mercenaries paid by the US government’ and not political prisoners. The visit by Miguel Ángel Moratinos to Cuba was the first by a Spanish Foreign Minister since 1998 and the first by an EU Foreign Minister since 2003 when Brussels imposed diplomatic sanctions against the regime, following the summary execution by firing squad of three people who hijacked a ferry in an attempt to flee the country, and the round-up of 75 dissidents. The agreement was denounced by Spain’s conservative Popular Party (PP), the main opposition to the Socialists, and by dissidents inside Cuba. The former PP Prime Minister, José María Aznar, was a prime mover behind the EU’s sanctions. It was also criticised by Thomas Shannon, the US Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs. Eastern European EU members (and former communist countries), particularly the Czech Republic, were especially unhappy about it. While it seemed that Spain was going out on a limb, the agreement was not that surprising as Moratinos had long made it clear that the government wanted to end the diplomatic freeze and restore dialogue, which it views as more constructive than continuing to ostracise the Cuban regime.

  • Hamilton Dissertation
    Lake Effects Transnational History and the Making of a Valencian Landscape By Sarah R. Hamilton A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2013 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Dario Gaggio, Co-Chair Associate Professor Douglas Northrop, Co-Chair Professor Gabrielle Hecht Adjunct Professor Richard Tucker If the Albufera is not cared for it will disappear, but its disappearance will not cause anything else to happen. There will not be any geological cataclysm; nor any sort of catastrophe, or anything like that. Moreover, the physical destiny of the Albufera is that it will disappear. The lake, abandoned to itself, with no sort of attacks upon it or any efforts to care for it, is irretrievably condemned to disappearance. But this is the fate of any historical or artistic monument. Every building, for example, is condemned to disappearance, just as the construction of extinguished civilizations disappeared, and just as little by little the castles, chapels and monasteries lost in the Spanish geography are disappearing, important victims of carelessness, theft, and hooliganism. Restoration work is undertaken in order to alleviate this inexorable fate as much as possible. This is why any monument or work of economic or cultural interest is object of a permanent guarding and conservation that will allow such legacies of our parents to pass to our children. There is no explanation, then, for the abandonment and pillage that an area of scenic and cultural interest such as the Albufera has undergone. We have a responsibility to our descendants that this patrimony is not lost; that the cultural wealth of the Albufera, in the broadest sense of the word, passes intact to the generations to come.

  • A Valencian-Style Coalition Government: El Botànic*
    DEBATS · Annual Review, 5 · 2020 — 145 / 158 DOI: http://doi.org/10.28939/iam.debats-en.2020-8 ISSN 2530-898X (print) ISSN 2530-8262 (electronic) A Valencian-style Coalition Government: el Botànic* Rosa Roig UNIVERSITAT DE VALÈNCIA [email protected] ORCID. 0000-0003-2408-8417 Received: 07/10/2019 Accepted: 21/02/2020 ABSTRACT Coalition governments are common in the European political landscape in various tiers of government. However, such coalitions were an exception in the history of the Valencian Autonomy until 2015, which marked a new stage with the so-called El Botànic governments. Which factors explain this change in the Valencian political system? What are the features of such coalition governments? Can this model be applied to other political systems? This paper addresses these and other issues. First, it looks at what led to coalition governments in both 2015 and 2019. Second, it studies the model of coalition government. The hypothesis tested is this: El Botànic is a coalition government whose success in terms of stability and governmental action is framed within a specific Valencian political context. Keywords: Governmental coalition, Valencian Region, Coalition politics, Spain of the autonomies, Government formation. Corresponding author: Rosa Roig. Universitat de València, Facultad de Derecho. C/Professor Francisco Tomás I Valiente, 4, 46022 València (Spain). Suggested citation: Roig, R. (2020). A Valencian-style Coalition Government: el Botànic. Debats.
