Manual de teoría de la comunicación II
Este segundo volumen recorre la historia de la teoría de la comunicación a partir de los aportes teóricos de América Latina en este campo. Los autores analizan las influencias de los paradigmas estadounidense y europeo sobre la región, y observan cómo el subcontinente intenta readaptar o suprimir estos aportes, en especial en un periodo como el de la segunda mitad del siglo XX en el que la lucha emocional e identitaria por lo propio comienza a determinar los rasgos de un pensamiento autónomo y diferenciado de otras regiones. El libro se divide en dos partes. La primera está dedicada a la contextualización histórica de la investigación. La segunda aborda la investigación en Latino...
La comunicación para la paz ante los desafíos globales
"Este libro se configura a partir de los trabajos mejor evaluados del Congreso Internacional Comunicación y ciudadanía: los desafíos de la comunicación para la paz ante los desafíos globales, que se realizó del 18 al 19 de de mayo de 2023 en la Universidad de Extremadura, Su publicación no hubiera sido posible sin el patrocinio de la Asociación Española de Investigación de la Comunicación AE-IC a través de la Sección Comunicación y ciudadanía, Los capítulos que agrupan este libro tienen como objetivo analizar la relación existente que tiene la comunicación con valores como la paz, los derechos humanos y los ideales de justicia y transición ecosocial, tanto desde el análisis y diagnóstico de situaciones de violencia y desigualdad como desde enfoques propositivos, transformadores y de soluciones, También se pone el foco en el escenario actual de crispación y polarización, con distintos conflictos armados como telón de fondo, y con una acechante crisis social, ambiental y económica de carácter global a la que necesitamos dar respuestas desde el campo de la comunicación, el periodismo y los medios."--
Southern Theories
This book critically explores Global South perspectives, examining marginalised voices and issues whilst challenging the supremacy of Global North perspectives in literature. The unique value of this book lies in its extensive coverage of various Southern challenges, including disaster management, climate change, communication, resilience, gender, education, and disability. It also underscores the relevance of indigenous philosophies such as animism, Buen Vivir, Buddhism, Confucianism, Daoism, Neozapatism, Qi vitality, Taoism, and Ubuntu. Stemming from regions as diverse as Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, and Latin America, these philosophies are brought into public discourse. By demonstrating the...

Comunicación y desarrollo
Las radios comunitarias que dan voz a las comunidades indígenas aymaras o a las suburbios de Montevideo, la fuerza de la prensa alternativa en Brasil o la comunicación como arma de participación y lucha contra la degradación del medio ambiente en la Colombia andina, son sólo algunos ejemplos que prueban y alumbran una nueva episteme de la resistencia en Comunicación desde abajo, en el Sur, y desde el Sur, un nuevo lenguaje con el que pensar y decir OTRA COMUNICACIÓN ES POSIBLE. La investigación en comunicación en Europa ha subestimado esta tradición y realidad. Es por ello que REAL_CODE, la Red Europa América Latina de Comunicación y Desarrollo, nace como espacio de encuentro ent...
Networks, Movements and Technopolitics in Latin America
This edited collection presents original and compelling research about contemporary experiences of Latin American movements and politics in several countries. The book proposes a theoretical framework that conceptualises different mediation processes that emerge between cyberdemocracy and the emancipation practices of new social movements. Additionally, this volume presents some Latin American practices and experiences that are autonomously and by using self-management–creating other identities and social spaces on the margins of and against the neoliberal system through the use of digital technology. This book will be of great interest to scholars of media and social movements studies as well as of contemporary politics.
Slow Journalism
Slow Journalism has emerged in recent years to enact a critique of the limitations and dangers of the speed of much mainstream contemporary journalistic practice. There have been types of journalism produced and consumed slowly for centuries, of course. What is new is the context of hyper-acceleration and over-production of journalism, where quality has suffered, ethics are compromised and user attention has eroded. Many have been asking if there is another way to practice journalism. The emergence of Slow Journalism suggests that there is. Many international scholars and practitioners have been thinking critically about the problems wrought by speed, and are utilising the concept of "slow" to describe a new way of thinking about and producing journalism. This edited collection offers theoretical perspectives and case studies on the practice of slow journalism around the globe. Slow Journalism is a new practice for new times. This book was originally published as two special issues of Journalism Practice and Digital Journalism.
Slow Media
Today we recognize that we have a different relationship to media technology--and to information more broadly--than we had even five years ago. We are connected to the news media, to our jobs, and to each other, 24 hours a day. But many people have found their mediated lives to be too fast, too digital, too disposable, and too distracted. This group--which includes many technologists and young people--believes that current practices of digital media production and consumption are unsustainable, and works to promote alternate ways of living. Until recently, sustainable media practices have been mostly overlooked, or thought of as a counterculture. But, as Jennifer Rauch argues in this book, t...
Critical Perspectives on Social Media and Protest
Commercial social media platforms have become integral to contemporary forms of protests. They are intensely used by advocacy groups, non-governmental organisations, social movements and other political actors who increasingly integrate social media platforms into broader practices of organizing and campaigning. But, aside from the many advantages of extensive mobilization opportunities at low cost, what are the implications of social media corporations being involved in these grassroots movements? This book takes a much-needed critical approach to the relationship between social media and protest. Highlighting key issues and concerns in contemporary forms of social media activism, including questions of censorship, surveillance, individualism, and temporality, the book combines contributions from some of the most active scholars in the field today. Advancing both conceptual and empirical work on social media and protest, and with a range of different angles, the book provides a fresh and challenging outlook on a very topical debate.
The Bloomsbury Handbook of World Theory
Disciplines from literary studies to environmentalism have recently undergone a spectacular reorientation that has refocused entire fields, methodologies, and vocabularies on the world and its sister terms such as globe, planet, and earth. The Bloomsbury Handbook of World Theory examines what “world” means and what it accomplishes in different zones of academic study. The contributors raise questions such as: What happens when “world” is appended to a particular form of humanistic or scientific inquiry? How exactly does “worlding” bear on the theoretical operating system and the history of that field? What is the theory or theoretical model that allows “world” to function in a meaningful way in coordination with that knowledge domain? With contributions from 38 leading theorists from a vast range of fields, including queer studies, religion, and pop culture, this is the first large reference work to consider the profound effect, both within and outside the academy, of the worlding of discourse in the 21st century.
