This essay studies the cultural consequences that the spread of paper money had in late nineteenth-century Brazil. First, I examine how these tensions are called into question through the analysis of a political scandal that took place in Rio de Janeiro, in 1900, concerning a two thousand reales banknote. Second, I offer a close reading of Machado de Assis' "Anedota pecuniária", a short-story included in Histórias sem data (1884). My goal is to interrogate the relation between paper money and the economy of credit work, and the narrative devices of literary fiction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Starting from a question about the "diasporic" position of certain authors of cultural criticism in Latin America, always halfway between academic affiliation and a kind of fractious position regarding their increasingly bureaucratized practices of knowledge administration, this paper proposes a reading of three representative texts by the Brazilian-Argentine critic Raul Antelo: Crítica acéfala, Archifilologías latinoamericanas. Lecturas tras el agotamiento and A ruinologia. These strange and problematic texts seem to be articulated from a position that not only (post)critically revises the foundations of more conventional criticism, but also moves toward the behavior of the most radical bids of artistic conceptualism; in other words, in them criticism becomes an act: intervention. And therein lies its forceful emergence in the framework of contemporary literary and cultural studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Yoga is an ancient South Asian philosophical system associated with an extensive set of physical, mental, and religious practices. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the forms of yoga's production-consumption-identity and cultural regulation within the framework of Cultural Studies. This paper is based on the findings of an Evidence Map on Yoga and corroborates the fact that yoga is being consumed as a cultural symbol and has mushroomed into a heterogeneous and deregulated market, in which many competing organizations promote different yoga styles and levels of certifications. Yoga has become entangled with economic and political logics and the commodification/branding process has transformed it from an Asian soul-searching practice into an industry.

Over the last decade, studies on masculinities have become a growing field of scholarship in Argentina. This paper provides a preliminary state of the art and critical account of the latest research on the topic. We emphasize the relation of these studies with others on sexual diversity, identifying important ongoing debates and alerting about vacant areas of inquiry. Focusing on an assessment of both fields' most important contributions, the paper deals with two major sets of disciplines: history, sociology and anthropology on one hand, and literary, cinematographic and cultural studies on the other.

This article analyzes how the ownership structure and the alliances between the agents producing serialized fiction for television are linked to the themes and narratives addressed by this type of cultural product. From the political economy of communication and cultural studies, the paper examines the predominant themes in the 100 most watched premiere fictions on open television in Argentina during the decade between 2011 and 2020. It is concluded that there is a wide predominance of universal themes with nonstructural local references, over purely local ones. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Culture is a broad concept that crosses different social sciences, especially after the cultural turn of the mid-twentieth century, before that was mainly the subject of anthropology. This paper focuses on various current theoretical principals that deal with culture and sets special emphasis on the debate on information/communication. The idea is to escape from different binary oppositions and look for complex and dialectical concepts that help us establish truly interdisciplinary debates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we briefly introduce three aspects of what might be considered a Latin-American school of political economy of communication. The first aspect is an institutional history that highlights the efforts to be present at universities as well as researcher organizations and other spaces of independent discussions such as journals and observatories. Second aspect, incorporates both European and North-American theoretical and epistemological traditions, which gives a way to a Latin-American re-elaboration. The third aspect, is the making of a particular history. Such history is, nevertheless, non-homogeneous as it takes into account the specificities of Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico. Finally, some categories elaborated or re-elaborated within the Latin-American camp, stand out as they contribute for a better dialog with other strands at the world level. As a conclusion remark is that, despite its internal development, the Anglo- American intellectual and academic traditions still prevail. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article tracks the historical record in the past half-century of alternative, community and popular (i.e. people's) communication in Latin America and the Caribbean in its quest to materialize the recurrent demand for the democratization of communication and assume it as a right. This process also includes an effort to promote issues such as citizen participation and regional integration that contribute to better democratic coexistence. The paper underlines the leading role and the interconnected participation of different experiences of alternative media, organizations and popular communication networks; social movements that have carried out different actions in the local, national, and international arena. Particular attention is given to the contribution of popular radio stations in strengthening democratic practices, the fight for the care of the environment and the promotion of the right to communicate in the last 30 years. The article concludes with the ratification of the commitment of popular communication to building the civilizing horizon of Good Living in a digitalized world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to expose part of a dissertation on symbolic and political representations formulated by contemporary narrative journalism. The methodology specifies a discussion on hegemony, control and power, based on thematic groups of analysis, which reflects on a production based on heterogeneous identities that highlights a plurality of political making. The discussion is raised from a sample of two chronicles of Etiqueta Negra and El Malpensante magazines, which involves the theoretical framework from the historical formation of the chronicle to the understanding of the process of socio-cultural mediation before power relations. This discussion intends to articulate imaginary, narrative influence, control practices, humanization of communication processes and social memory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we propose to analyze the conditions in which Antonio Pasquali approached, between the mid-sixties and the beginning of the seventies, the philosophical and sociological reflections elaborated by the Frankfurt School. From a theoretical-methodological framework inscribed in the sociology of culture, the cultural and intellectual networks in which the Venezuelan theorist participated are reconstructed. This analytical input allows us to account certain readings and appropriations of the so-called "critical theory of society", in a specific context about the discussions about the relationship between communication, culture and the mass media.

The paper reflects upon the appropriation of the Latin-American theories by the Brazilian scientific production in the area of reception studies. This frame is justified by the importance of the country in the continent's investigation scenario, in both quantitative terms and in the continuous effort of the Brazilian's academic research qualification. The analysis is from a systematic monitoring of the production since da 1990s (Jacks, et al. 2008; 2014; 2017) to trace an overview of 25 years of the field, presenting theoretical-methodological mapped contributions, advances and obstacles. Also discusses the evolution and reconfiguration of what is understood by reception and the main gaps that can serve as an agenda of investigation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

«Law and Literature» names a space of encounter between the strangest objects and disciplines. That space took the form of the «Law and Literature movement», and since the 70s, it has evolved, grown and expanded into multiple directions. The importance of «law and literature» can be measured in terms of this expansion, but also considering the profound debts to the movement held by many legal scholars and many of the most important discussions in the field of law. This paper reconstructs the trajectory of the law and literature movement in order to show the importance of this discussion in the legal field since the institutional foundation in the 70s to the first years of the new millennium.

In this paper, the main results of the research project Consumption Cultural and social representations in children, adolescents and young people from Mexico City are exposed. It describes the close relationship between economic inequality and social and cultural inequality. Theoretically, it is part of the theory of social field of Pierre Bourdieu and the method of multiple correspondence analysis is used to arrive at these results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper studies the narrative similarities between the novel The Castle by Franz Kafka and the TV series The Wire, created by David Simon for HBO. We analyze the main characters in each work, K. in The Castle and Jimmy McNulty in The Wire, as antiheroes that fight against the bureaucracy of the institution they work for. Also, we find other connexions between both works in aspects like the socio-historical context, the presence of an opaque and strongly hierarchized power, as well as analogies in the representation of institutions and the individuals who face them. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims at discussing the relation between the decolonial studies (ED) and communication studies (EC). There's an intention to develop some explanatory exercises: analyze the need of inquiring on the expression "critical schools in communication"; highlighting some debates that summarize the differences between EDs and cultural studies in communication; finally interrogating the epistemology of communication as a way to address not just the questions of some of the communication narratives or traditions, but the manner and consequences of that answer.
