Cómo acabar con la contracultura

Synopsis of Cómo acabar con la contracultura

An exhaustive and personal analysis of the Spanish underground, this book offers a fragmentary journey through the counterculture, from its utopian beginnings to its current disenchantment. Jordi Costa explores the Sevillian genesis of the movement, influenced by the flamenco-psychedelic fusion, and its evolution to the era of youtubers. The author examines the resistance strategies present in underground comics, the music of Jaume Sisa and Vainica Doble, and the cinema of Almodóvar, Zulueta and Iglesia, among others, raising questions about the relationship between counterculture and power. What remained of the countercultural promise after the Transition? Costa draws fascinating connections, revealing the transcendence of this movement and its impact on Spanish culture.
