Mexico Unmanned: The Cultural Politics of Masculinity in Mexican Cinema (SUNY series in Latin American Cinema)

Samanta Ordóñez

4.9/5 (34091 ratings)

Description:Iconic images of machismo in Mexico's classic cinema affirm the national film industry's historical alignment with the patriarchal ideology intrinsic to the post-revolutionary state's political culture. Filmmakers gradually turned away from the cultural nationalism of mexicanidad, but has the underlying gender paradigm been similarly abandoned? Films made in the past two decades clearly reflect transformations instituted by a neoliberal regime of cultural politics, yet significant elements of macho mythology continue to be rearticulated. Mexico Unmanned examines these structural continuities in recent commercial and auteur films directed by Alfonso Cuar�n, Carlos Cuar�n, Carlos Reygadas, Amat Escalante, and Julio Hern�ndez Cord�n, among others. Informed by cinema's role in Mexico's modern/colonial gender system, Samanta Ord��ez draws out recurrent patterns of signification that reproduce racialized categories of masculinity and bolster a larger network of social hierarchies. In so doing, Ord��ez dialogues with current intersectional gender theory, fresh scholarship on violence in the neoliberal state, and the latest research on Mexican cinema.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
