Book synopsis
This book explores violence in Latin America societies and its social representations in cinema. Just as mass media can legitimize and reproduce patterns and discourses of discrimination, they can also serve to raise awareness and change minds about social issues such as violence and thus enhance citizen participation in social change. This book explores how Latin American cinema portrays these societies. It covers theoretical perspectives for analysis and research methods for analysing narratives in their social context. The book makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the global logics of production and social reproduction of violence in a twentieth-century context, and it discusses issues of civilisation barbarism and decolonisation in the global south. It demonstrates that the visibility of violence and vulnerable groups on the screen can make an impact far beyond academia, shaping public opinion regarding these issues and influencing the audiences (citizens). It speaks to academics and researchers in Latin American studies, film and media studies, cultural criminology and the social sciences.
