Dr Niamh Thornton is Reader in Latin American Studies at the University of Liverpool. Dr Miriam Haddu is Senior Lecturer in Latin American Studies at Royal Holloway, University of London

Legacies of the Past offers a timely examination of the ways memory and trauma dominate Mexican visual and screen cultures. Bringing together essays on filmmakers, photographers, cartoonists, multi-media artists and student protestors, Haddu and Thornton make a remarkable contribution to understandings of representations of traumatic moments (1968, 1994 2006 and 2012) in Mexico’s past.
