Latinx Representation in Contemporary Popular Culture and New Media

This volume provides a partial mapping of the ambivalent representational forms and cultural politics that have characterized Latinx identity since the 1990s, looking at literary and popular culture texts, as well as new media expressions. The chapters tackle themes related to the diversity of Latinx culture and experience, as represented in different media the borderland context, issues related to gender and sexuality, the US-Mexico borderland context, and the connections between spatiality and Latinx self-representation-sketching the 'now' of Latinx representation and considering that 'Latinx' is an unstable signifier, and the present, as well as culture and media, are always in motion.
