This volume interrogates the intertwining of the local and the digital in environmental communication. It starts by introducing a wave metaphor to tease out major shifts in the field, and situates the intersections of local places and digital networks in the beginning of a third wave. Investigations that feature the centrality of place and digital communication platforms show how we today, as researchers and practitioners, communicate the environment. Contributions identify the need for critical approaches that engage with the wider consequences of this changing media landscape, unpacking local and global tensions in environmental communication research. This empirical case study collection from different parts of the world shows that environmental activists and citizens creatively use digital technologies for campaign purposes. It identifies new environmental communication challenges and opportunities, as well as practices, of environmental activists, NGOs, citizens and local communities, in the fight for social and environmental justice.

El dossier central de esta entrega, número ya 75 de TELOS, muestra la articulación inevitable entre los “viejos” debates sobre la comunicación masiva y los nuevos desafíos económicos y políticos, de sostenibilidad financiera y de pluralismo en el sistema de medios de comunicación. Resultado de la investigación de un equipo que ha abordado desde hace tiempo la evolución y situación actual de las políticas públicas sobre la prensa escrita, sobre sus filosofías nacionales y resultados, aboca también a la consideración central de cómo ayudar a construir la diversidad en el nuevo entorno comunicativo que está naciendo. Las ayudas a la prensa escrita fueron efectivamente uno de los asuntos pioneros de la investigación en comunicación, especialmente en Europa, pero el brillo hipnótico del audiovisual apagó en buena medida este debate en las últimas décadas; mientras la investigación sobre la prensa era postergada y marginada. Y ello a pesar de un peso e influencia social sostenidos por la prensa diaria y de su precoz traslación a Internet.
