Identifying and interpreting gendered violence
We present an audience reception study of participant reactions to gender‐based violence in Issa López' 2008 film, Casi Divas , chosen for its nuanced depiction of women grappling with several violences. Over three focus groups with 15 adult participants, we used Galtung's conflict theory to explore what participants identified as violence, and how victims should respond to violence in various forms. We find that participants have a narrow defini…
Odos de habitar la rabia contra la misoginia en Vis a Vis (2015-2020)
This study examines the TV series Vis a Vis through the operationalization of the concept of anger competence (Chemaly 2018), which refers to the subject’s ability to express anger.

In that sense, we contend that the narrative approach of the series does not reproduce the usual stigmatization of w…
Female political leaders in Spanish popular culture
A successful Spanish TV show, Isabel (three seasons, 2012–14; broadcasted through the national TV channel La 1) recovers an important female political figure in Spanish history, Isabella I of Castile – the Catholic monarch – as a powerful leader who achieved the unification of Spain and the expansion of a true empire during the fifteenth century. This recovery is not naïve, but fully charged with ideological positions that are played out in Spain…
Nostalgia and the Dialectics of Contemporary Feminisms in The Handmaid's Tale
In this article, we turn our gaze to the television series The Handmaid's Tale to examine different critical aspects of nostalgia in relation to contemporary and previous feminist debates. Our purpose is to analyze not only the series' different approaches to nostalgia but also to question the type of feminism the female dystopia attempts to recuperate. We enquire into the political capacity of the show's nostalgia to advance the complex debate o…
