Book Description
El Catedrático brasileño José Marques de Melo —el más prestigioso comunicólogo de América Latina— produce con este libro una obra capital para el estudio del pensamiento comunicacional latinoamericano, fruto de décadas de investigación y de un detenido examen de la acción permanente del poder. Los textos que componen esta obra fueron viendo la luz entre 1967 y 2007. «Se trata de una producción dispersa, fragmentada y de difícil acceso, quizás porque fue difundida en revistas científicas destinadas a públicos especializados, o porque fue diseminada en las actas de congresos y simposios, circulando en comunidades académicas cerradas o círculos intelectuales restringidos.» Por todo ello, multitud de profesores de toda América, Portugal y España, que recomiendan las lecturas de Marques de Melo en sus universidades, incentivaron al autor a reunir en una antología retrospectiva las reflexiones hechas a lo largo del tiempo sobre las diversas contribuciones latinoamericanas a la teoría de la comunicación. «Reuní los escritos en dos bloques temáticos que traducen la confrontación que polariza el campo académico de la comunicación; condicionado a su vez por el aparato político dominante, o situado bajo el control del estamento intelectual hegemónico. En otras palabras, oscilando entre el poder y el saber.» La primera parte de esta obra pone el énfasis en el amplio universo de la política, documentando toda la segunda mitad del siglo XX e interpretando sucesos ubicados en las dos coyunturas definidoras del periodo, la guerra fría y la globalización. La segunda parte se restringe al ámbito puramente académico, rescatando las tendencias notables en los dos espacios que brindan identidad a tales comunidades cerradas: la enseñanza y la investigación. «Contribuir al fortalecimiento de la autoestima latinoamericana es la verdadera intención de este libro.» En palabras del comunicólogo mexicano Mario Nieves, Marques de Melo nos desvela «el saber construido por sus predecesores y contemporáneos a lo largo de sucesivas generaciones.» En resumen, este libro es un notable ejercicio de reflexividad sobre el saber y el poder en el ámbito del pensamiento latinoamericano en comunicación.

Communicology of the South
Author: Carlos F. Del Valle Rojas
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303108117X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
This book addresses new conceptual bases for thinking critically about communication as a necessary way in which to confront power, property and the market as part of the daily resistance of Latin American subaltern cultures. The chapters research an urgent field of situated knowledge and spark a much-needed dialogue. The editors view emancipatory communication experiences as disruptive acts of resistance, prompted mainly by social movements. These experiences have opened up political modes of communication by establishing a decolonising axis in the field of communication and reconstructing the history and memory of Latin America. This book is a valuable reference for researchers, academics and students interested in the role of communication and culture in processes of social transformation.

The Handbook of Global Interventions in Communication Theory
Author: Yoshitaka Miike
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000536254
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 708
Book Description
Moving beyond the U.S.-Eurocentric paradigm of communication theory, this handbook broadens the intellectual horizons of the discipline by highlighting underrepresented, especially non-Western, theorists and theories, and identifies key issues and challenges for future scholarship. Showcasing diverse perspectives, the handbook facilitates active engagement in different cultural traditions and theoretical orientations that are global in scope but local in effect. It begins by exploring past efforts to diversify the field, continuing on to examine theoretical concepts, models, and principles rooted in local cumulative wisdom. It does not limit itself to the mass-interpersonal communication divide, but rather seeks to frame theory as global and inclusive in scope. The book is intended for communication researchers and advanced students, with relevance to scholars with an interest in theory within information science, library science, social and cross-cultural psychology, multicultural education, social justice and social ethics, international relations, development studies, and political science.

Citizen Media and Practice
Author: Hilde Stephansen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351247352
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
This groundbreaking collection advances understanding of the concept of media practices by critically interrogating its relevance for the study of citizen and activist media. Media as practice has emerged as a powerful approach to understanding the media’s significance in contemporary society. Bringing together contributions from leading scholars in sociology, media and communication, social movement and critical data studies, this book stimulates dialogue across previously separate traditions of research on citizen and activist media practices and stakes out future directions for research in this burgeoning interdisciplinary field. Framed by a foreword by Nick Couldry and a substantial introductory chapter by the editors, contributions to the volume trace the roots and appropriations of the concept of media practice in Latin American communication theory; reflect on the relationship between activist agency and technological affordances; explore the relevance of the media practice approach for the study of media activism, including activism that takes media as its central object of struggle; and demonstrate the significance of the media practice approach for understanding processes of mediatization and datafication. Offering both a comprehensive introduction to scholarship on citizen media and practice and a cutting-edge exploration of a novel theoretical framework, the book is ideal for students and experienced scholars alike.

The Routledge Handbook of Political Communication in Ibero-America
Author: Andreu Casero-Ripollés
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040153461
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 517
Book Description
The Routledge Handbook of Political Communication in Ibero-America addresses the relationship between communication, politics, and digital technologies in Latin American and the Iberian Peninsula, a geographical space linked by social, cultural, and linguistic aspects. In recent years, digital media have been central in the dialogue established by political parties, institutions, the media, and citizens. In this hybrid space emerged certain phenomena that are of interest, particularly in the Ibero-American landscape, including disinformation and fake news, protests on social media, the organization of social movements, the relationship between the press and the state, political participation, populism, the role played by emotions and memes, the impact of AI and platformization on politics, and topics of debate in the public sphere. This Handbook is structured into nine parts, beginning with a historical contextualization and then exploring central aspects of the discipline. It then goes on to study trends at the regional level, increasing knowledge about how political communication and digital technologies are changing multiple aspects of Ibero-American societies, where political communication plays a fundamental role – especially in electoral processes, with its consequent effects on democracy. This Handbook will be of interest to academics, students, and professionals in the fields of political science, communication, journalism, advertising, marketing, and sociology, as well as public opinion consulting. It will be of particular interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students from Latin America, Portugal, and Spain.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Uncovering class divisions, racial conflicts, and tangled emotions, this gritty, shocking novel of suspense heralds the arrival of a major new talent. Henning Juul is a veteran investigative crime reporter in Oslo, Norway. A horrific fire killed his six-year-old son, cut scars across his face, and ended his marriage, and on his first day back at the job after the terrible tragedy a body is discovered in one of the city’s public parks. A beautiful female college student has been stoned to death and buried up to her neck, her body left bloody and exposed. The brutality of the crime shakes the whole country, but despite his own recent trauma – and the fact that his ex-wife’s new boyfriend is also on the case - Henning is given the assignment. When the victim’s boyfriend, a Pakistani native, is arrested, Henning feels certain the man is innocent. This was not simply a Middle Eastern-style honor killing in the face of adultery – it was a far more complicated gesture, and one that will drag Henning into a darkness he’s never dreamed of.

The International History of Communication Study
Author: Peter Simonson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317540816
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
The International History of Communication Study maps the growth of media and communication studies around the world. Drawing out transnational flows of ideas, institutions, publications, and people, it offers the most comprehensive picture to date of the global history of communication research and education. This volume reaches into national and regional areas that have not received much attention in the scholarship until now, including Asia, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East alongside Europe and North America. It also covers communication study outside of academic settings: in international organizations like UNESCO, and among commercial and civic groups. It moves beyond the traditional canon to cover work by forgotten figures, including women scholars in the field and those outside of the United States and Europe, and it situates them all within the broader geopolitical, institutional, and intellectual landscapes that have shaped communication study globally. Intended for scholars and graduate students in communication, media studies, and journalism, this volume pushes the history of communication study in new directions by taking an aggressively international and comparative perspective on the historiography of the field. Methodologically and conceptually, the volume breaks new ground in bringing comparative, transnational, and global frames to bear, and puts under the spotlight what has heretofore only lingered in the penumbra of the history of communication study.
