Updated and Expanded
Disney and the End of Innocence

By Henry A. Giroux and Grace Pollock

New! Border Sexualities, Border Families in Schools
By Maria Pallotta-Chiarolli
“Border Sexualities is a groundbreaking work which gives an in-depth glimpse of the issues that face sexual minority students, families and teachers within the school system. Furthermore, Pallotta-Chiarolli offers realistic ideas about how to address these issues.This book is a must-read for educators who wish to make their schools safer for all, and for bi, poly and gender-queer folks who are looking for ways to survive and thrive at school.” —Geri Weitzman, PhD, Psychologist, San Francisco The first book of its kind internationally, Border Sexualities, Border Families in Schools explores the experiences of bisexual students, mixed sexual orientation families, and polyamorous families in schools. For the first time, a book foregrounds the voices and experiences of these students and families who are “falling into the gaps” or on the borders of a school’s gay/straight divide in anti-homophobia policies and programs, and schools recognising families as meaning either heterosexual couples, or, increasingly, homosexual couples. Maria Pallotta-Chiarolli is Senior Lecturer of Social Diversity and Health in the School of Health and Social Development.

EBOOK

In this new and expanded edition, Giroux and Pollock explore the surprisingly diverse ways in which Disney, while hiding behind a cloak of innocence and entertainment, strives to dominate global media and shape the desires, needs, and futures of today’s children. New to this edition is a discussion of Disney’s shift in its marketing strategies towards targeting tweens and teens, as Disney promises to provide (via participation in consumer culture) the tools through which young people construct—and support their identities, values, and knowledge of the world.This book takes the reader inside the company’s vision of the full range of its media—its films, television, famous characters, and spin-off products and reveals how Disney idealizes and implements its goal of building a world culture—one based on innocence and morals, but insidious in its consumerist exploits. Henry A. Giroux is the Global Television Network Chair in English and Cultural Studies at McMaster University. Grace Pollock recently completed her doctoral degree at McMaster University and a two-year postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Western Ontario.
