Beschreibung:
In my PhD-work I investigate the dancing performances held by the Coros y Danzas, the Folklore-groups of the female section of the Spanish fascist Falange-Party, focusing on a show staged in 1954 in Equatorial Guinea. The dancing shall be analyzed as part of the Franquist nation-building that was based on a nexus of inseparably linked gender- and colonial-politics. The project shows how in rhizomatic material/semiotic processes the dancers were built as female bodies with certain characteristics, that should make them suitable instruments of that nation-building. Those processes didn’t always turn out as intended and showed some ‘mis-features’ that endangered their political mission. As causes of those ‘accidents’ – a certain genderblurring of the dancers being one of them – I’ll investigate the ambivalence of that mission, colonial encounters and the différance of the dancing that opened up space for hybridity.
