This book has attempted to explore the links between celebrities and the political sphere through an analysis of the reciprocal flow of contents, meanings, and practices between entertainment industries and politics. Why are celebrities recruited as candidates, and since when? How is fame, acquired through media exposure, converted into electoral and political power? How does the local political system and culture affect that transition? What is the impact of celebrity candidates in the political system? In the face of many abstract claims about celebrity culture and celebrity power, this book set out to answer these questions through the analysis of the specific historical and cultural context of celebrity politics across different geopolitical and cultural spaces.
