About the Book

The book offers an analytical and empirical account of the specificities of political entertainment in post-authoritarian democracies. Centered around Mexico as a case study, the book explores the production of political entertainment in post-authoritarian legacy media and how political and economic conditions constrain the range and edge of discourse; how political entertainment in social media is shaped by the structure of platforms, as creators are encouraged to conform to specific norms such as constant publication; and the impacts of these media on attitude formation among the population. The book proposes a theoretical framework for identifying the specific conditions of post-authoritarian democracies that constrain the production of political entertainment, as well as its outcomes in terms of content and effects. This framework can be applied to the analysis of similar case studies, particularly in the Global South at large. With an analysis drawing on hard data, historical accounts, and anecdotal evidence, this volume will resonate within academic communities interested in political communication, media studies, transitional democracies, and popular culture.

Review :
"If satire might be a universally global form of political talk, how is it reworked within local cultures? This book provides a marvelous exploration of that question. Utilizing mixed methods, the work is multi-faceted and sure to be of interest to anyone interested in satire, political entertainment, or Latin American politics. It's a brilliant example of how to approach globalized political entertainment in a specific, and complicated, national context." Geoffrey Baym, Director, Doctoral Program in Media and Communication, Professor, Department of Media Studies and Production, Klein College of Media and Communication, Temple University.
