RCC is pleased to announce this lecture delivered by [Manuel López Segura](/people/manuel-l%C3%B3pez-segura) and [Francisco Prado-Vilar](/people/francisco-prado-vilar) as part of the winter activities organized at [Harvard January@GSAS](https://www.gsas.harvard.edu/events_calendar/january_events/arts_culture_and_recreation/the_catalan_connection_constructing_the_catalan_countries_through_architecture_1950s-1980s.php).

**Abstract:** Between the 1950s and 1980s many people claimed and fought for the cultural and political unity of the Catalan-speaking regions of Spain. This lecture focuses on the contribution of architecture to the ideological construction of the so-called Catalan Countries. A GSAS student should attend if she is interested in the intertwining of architectural and political debates, and in the territorial tensions Spain is experiencing today. A GSAS student should expect to gain knowledge of Spain, its rich cultural diversity, and its complex recent history.
