The nature of Dr. Balibrea's research is fundamentally interdisciplinary and it incorporates focuses on literature, visual culture and cultural institutions and their discourses.

  Title of thesis:
  A Study of the Concept and Genealogy of Home Ownership within Spain from 1950 to 2008 as Represented within Specific Cultural Artefacts
  
  Description:
  Private home ownership is so central to the Spanish populace that its influence can be seen within Spanish cultural products. This is reciprocal for, in turn, the cultural products and their view on the home impact the Spanish populace. This thesis therefore examines cultural artefacts, alongside academic theories on space and the home, as a tool in order to attempt to explain the rise and continuation of the ideology of home ownership within Spain. It will use cultural artefacts to show that historic, economic and political events within Spain from the 1950s onwards have impacted the concept of home ownership.
  The promotion of home ownership within Spain can be traced back to 1947 when Franco’s government liberalized residency laws resulting in a mass rural exodus to the cities in search of employment. Even after Franco’s death and the transition to democracy, the focus on the construction industry and, as a consequence the need for greater home ownership, persisted. On 1 January 1986 Spain joined the European Economic Community which resulted in significant EU subsidies leading to the huge construction boom of the 1980s and early 1990s. Consequently, Spain became the country in Europe with the greatest amount of people owning their own home; 87% in 2007 (López, 2011, p. 3).
  This thesis takes a different, and hence unique, approach to other scholars who have used cultural artefacts to illustrate the link between space and culture within Spain, in working more specifically with the idea of home ownership. Other theorists, for example Nathan Richardson and Ann Davies also used cultural artefacts to understand Spain’s complex relationship with space, but only for the period up until the 1990s and did not specifically look at home ownership. Therefore, the exploration of home ownership within Spain as evidenced in cultural artefacts appears not to have been attempted before.
  By expanding the period of review from the 1950s to 2008 and by concentrating on the specific concept of home ownership, this thesis encompasses events such as the Franco regime, including the end of the disastrous autarkic period and the later periods of desarrollismo and apertura, including the adoption of a capitalistic stance that was to characterize the latter half of Francoism and later Spanish governments, the transition to democracy, membership of the European Union, the construction booms of both the 1960s and late 1980s/early 1990s and the events that led into the long recession which started in 2008 and lasted until 2015, from which Spain is now recovering.. All of these events had an impact on the use of space and hence the concept of home ownership within Spain. We should therefore be able to see this impact when we review the cultural artefacts written at the time in question. In addition, by reviewing the chosen artefacts we should hopefully obtain a greater understanding as to how, why and to what extent the dominant discourse affected Spain’s populace who appeared to embrace the ideology behind private home ownership. As such, this unique approach could be fundamental in understanding Spanish society’s relationship to their homes and their hegemonic desire for ownership.
