AMERICAN SOCIETY AND CULTURE
There is great interest in America in Spain. Both American visual and
performing arts are frequently presented by American artists in Madrid
and throughout Spain, mostly through arrangements made by Spanish impresarios. Public Affairs
does, however, encourage and support selected locally-sponsored activities,
especially those which serve to extend the public impact of an American
artistic performance or deepen public understanding of American ideas and
society. Most importantly, Public Affairs supports the efforts by Spanish universities
to offer multi-disciplinary American studies programs at the graduate level.
This is done through Public Affairs and post-originated teacher training programs,
provision of materials and expertise, and assistance with institutional
linkages.
