Social Order and Authority in Disney and Pixar Films contributes to
an essential, ongoing conversation about how power dynamics are
questioned, reinforced, and disrupted in the stories Disney tells.
Whether these films challenge or perpetuate traditional structures
(or do both), their considerable influence warrants careful
examination. This collection addresses the vast reach of the
Disneyverse, contextualizing its films within larger conversations
about power relations. The depictions of surveillance, racial
segregation, othering, and ableism represent real issues that
impact people and their lived experiences. Unfortunately,
storytellers often oversimplify or mischaracterize complex matters
on screen. To counter this, contributors investigate these unspoken
and sometimes unintended meanings. By applying the lenses of
various theoretical approaches, including ecofeminism, critiques of
exceptionalism, and gender, queer, and disability studies, authors
uncover underlying ideologies. These discussions help readers
understand how Disney's output both reflects and impacts
contemporary cultural conditions.
