The volume engages a wide spectrum of ambivalent regions--subjects that currently are, or have been seen in the past, as spaces of negotiation and contestation. However, they converge in their perception of the \"Spanish\" nation-space as a historical and ideological construct that is perpetually going through transformations and reformations. This volume advocates the position that intellectual responsibility must lead us to engage openly in the issues underlying current social and political tensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eSimon Doubleday\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of History at Hofstra University, and Executive Editor of the\u003ci\u003e Journal of Medieval Iberian Studies\u003c\/i\u003e.
