> Book Description
>
> *Burning Down the House *explores the political, economic and cultural
> landscape of 21st-century Latin America through comics. It examines works
> from Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Uruguay, Perú, Colombia, México and
> Spain, and the resurgence of comics in recent decades spurred by the
> ubiquity of the Internet and reminiscent of the complex political
> experiences and realities of the region.
>
> The volume analyses experimentations in themes and formats and how Latin
> American comics have become deeply plural in its inspirations, subjects,
> drawing styles and political concerns while also underlining the hybrid and
> diverse cultures they represent. It examines the representative and
> historical images in a state of emergency and political upheaval;
> decolonial perspectives and social struggles linked to ethnic and sexual
> minorities. It looks at how Latin American comics are made right now – from
> a diverse and autochthonous Latin American perspective.
>
> With a wide array of illustrations, this book in the Global Perspectives
> in Comics Studies series will be an important resource for scholars and
> researchers of comic studies, Latin American studies, cultural studies,
> English literature, political history and post-colonial studies.
