Gender and Contemporary Television in Iberia and Latin America

Identities and Social Change

About this book

This book provides an inclusive and intersectional look into television from Latin America and the Iberian Peninsula. Each of the essays, written by international scholars across various disciplines, offer close textual analyses of popular series from Mexico, Spain, Brazil and Cuba, these include La casa de papel (2017-2021), Drag Race España (2021-), Inés del alma mía (2020) and El ministerio del tiempo (2015). The detailed case studies of seminal local and global hits provide overdue critical attention to Latin American television programming, highlighting on screen representations of gendered identities and the role of online streaming in facilitating social change.

The collection goes on to explore recent industrial changes through first hand interviews with prominent practitioners such as Veronica Fernandez and Leticia Dolera. Discussing a broad range of genres including the telenovela, melodrama, historical drama and reality TV, alongside critical theories of media and gender, the collection contextualises and interrogates representational practices in Spanish television programming.
