Ă propos de ce livre
This edited collection analyzes the tensions, contradictions, contributions, and new horizons generated and/or imposed by Netflix within Spain's audiovisual culture.
This book provides invaluable insight into how Netflixâfirst in its role as distributor and then as content creatorâhas changed the audiovisual landscape in Spain. It discusses how Netflix challenges the traditional method of categorizing film and television output by nationality while also examining how Spain is presented to other countries through the Netflix catalog and questioning what its chosen outputâlight comedies, mystery/thrillers, narco-fiction, and crimeâmeans for Spain's national brand. With chapters addressing themes such as reproducibility, pan-Europeanism after Brexit, gender representation, identity, and globalization, this book explores howâunder the influence of NetflixâSpain is transitioning from an importer of audiovisual content to a center of export.
This book will appeal to students and scholars of Film and Media Studies, Hispanic and Iberian Studies, and Spanish with a specific interest in Spanish film, television, media, and culture, as well asglobal media industries.
