During the twentieth century the Mexican government invested in the creation and promotion of a national culture more aggressively than any other state in the western hemisphere. Fragments of a Golden Age provides a comprehensive cultural history of the vibrant Mexico that emerged after 1940. Agreeing that the politics of culture and its production, dissemination, and reception constitute one of the keys to understanding this period of Mexican history, the volume's contributors--historians, popular writers, anthropologists, artists, and cultural critics--weigh in on a wealth of topics from music, tourism, television, and sports to theatre, unions, art, and magazines.
