Explores what's happened to Mexico's film industry in recent decades. Far from just a history of the period, Screening Neoliberalism explores four deep transformations in the Mexican film industry: the decline of nationalism, the new focus on middle-class audiences, the redefinition of political cinema, and the impact of globalization.

Examines the transformation, in both aesthetics and infrastructure, of Mexican fiction since the late 1970s. During this time a framework has emerged characterized by the corporatization of publishing, a frictional relationship between Mexican literature and global book markets, and the desire of Mexican writers to break from dominant models of national culture.

Explores the processes and works that laid the foundations of a new literary modernity in the wake of the Mexican Revolution. This book focuses on a period that goes from the signing of the Constitution in 1917 to the death of Alfonso Reyes in 1959.
