This book examines the pervasive cultural influence of Walt Disney and his imaginary empire. Drawing both on the humanities and social sciences, the contributors read through Disney's domestic cultural production - 'innocent' national icons, as well as theme parks, cartoons and television - to analyze the global impact of American popular culture, the politics of Disney, and the complex reception of Disney productions around the world.
