A new edited collection edited by David S. Dalton (University of North Carolina, Charlotte) that was indexed by Southwest Humanities will be published very soon. Animation in Mexico, 2006 to 2022; Box Office, Web Shorts, and Streaming (SUNY Press), will be released at the beginning of April 2025. In this “first book-length study of the country’s animated cinema in the twenty-first century…contributors use an array of theoretical and disciplinary approaches to interrogate how this popular genre interfaces with Mexican politics and society more broadly, from Huevocartoon to Coco and beyond.” This collection will be of interest to scholars and readers of Mexican cinema and animation, as well as the topics of animation and Latin American film studies more generally. Contributors include David S. Dalton, Rodrigo Figueroa Obregón, Elissa J. Raskin, Sofia Paiva de Araujo, Vinodh Venkatesh, Katherine Bundy, Yunuen Ysela Mandujano-Salazar, Enrique Ajuria Ibarra, and Molly F. Todd.
