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]

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]

«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.

This paper reports the findings of a review of 51 Latin American empirical studies on television audiences published between 1992 and 2007 in the most important journals in the region. The analysis compares the studies according to their theoretical approach, research techniques and type of television content. Findings show that cultural studies is the most popular theoretical approach, that television and daily life, and the mediations are the topics covered the most, and that many studies still lack a solid methodological base. The paper presents a diagnosis of the strengths and weaknesses of current Latin American empirical research on television audiences and points out the need for more methodological rigor and emphasis on ideological readings.

This paper analyses the ideological discourse of the local print and television news media of the eighties in the city of Monterrey, Mexico according to the biographical narratives of four leading journalists. The purpose is to pay attention to the role of ideology in the media as emphasized by cultural studies in its beginnings. The main question posed was: What was the role of the media in the eighties in the reproduction of the ideology of the economic and industrial elite of Monterrey and its relationship with the value system and civic identity of the audience members? According to the journalists interviewed, members of the industrial elite had a direct and explicit influence in the policies and contents of the main local newspapers and television stations, except for a daily newspaper that lost its predominance when rejecting that influence. The paper discusses the close relationship between media, audiences and the structures of ideological reproduction of the local industrial group, and the ways in which all these elements continously interact.

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.

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.

In this paper the results of the evaluation of an instrument on gender institutional culture are analyzed using the principal components method. The structure and parameters of its validity and reliability, as well as the differences obtained by sex, are described. The sample consisted of 1,144 individuals from the educational, health, and research sectors in northwestern Mexico. The results showed four components: administrative processes, employment equity, benefits, working environment, and authoritarianism, which explain 40.90 of variance with a Cronbachs alpha of .88. With these obtained values, the instrument is considered valid and reliable to evaluate institutional culture and identify gender bias. Methodology can be replicated to adapt the instrument to other regions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents an analysis of the film consumption practices of a large group of young Aruban students, ranging from 12 to 17 years, with special attention to the consumption of Caribbean cinema. This study is framed by an overview of the country's film exhibition system in which these consumption practices are inserted. During the study, even though general trends of the audience's behaviour were analysed, we tried to understand the symbolic dimension of these film-consumption practices and some of the factors that influence their features. This research is motivated by the need to deepen the study of the dynamics of film consumption in the Caribbean, as a tool for a more successful insertion of local content in both regional exhibition circuits and Caribbean audience's cultural tastes.

Current paper analyzes the life and works of the cultural agent Cornélio Pires whose activities involved the conservation of the caipira culture, disseminating it through publications, recordings, sound tracks, spectacles (scenes, music, guitar and musical groups) and propagating it on the radio. Contrastingly to the intense transformations in São Paulo, representations of plantations and life in the hinterland were emerging. They are actually different scenes in which the people of the Brazilian interior are sometimes praised and at other times criticized. Within this context, the life, works and artistic productions of Cornélia Pires are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The latest public health crises have also been media, historical and socio-cultural crises. In this context, many authors have highlighted the importance of fiction narratives in the transformation and transmission of the moral and ideological values involved. In this paper, I exposed a comparative study of two pieces of literary narrative fiction in which the plot is structured around the management of a catastrophic epidemic. These novels have been published and set in different historical scenarios. Therefore I have analyzed how the notions of epidemic and contagion are historically constructed, as well as the social representations of medical science, of public health authorities, and the actions of the political institutions, society and its citizens in front of a severe health risk. These pieces reflect the historical changes in social construction of epidemic disasters, from scientific positivism which framed the Daniel Defoe's chronicle -The Journal of the Plague Year (1772) - to the reflexive criticism against the political use of scientific knowledge implied in Albert Camus' La peste (1947). These novels, largely realists, constitute the literary model for the current epidemic fiction narrative, mainly apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic science fiction, which popularity has grown significantly in the last years.

This paper seeks to emphasize the relevance of analyzing the exchanges between local and foreign counterparts. Latin American cultural history, cultural studies as well as architecture and urbanism histories contribute to discuss dependentists analyses on center--periphery relations. Those research lines enable a more productive approach on international circulation of ideas, technicians and urban models as well as international exchanges. The theoretical approach is articulated with a previous research that analyzes the struggle to define diagnoses of Buenos Aires city problems between 1983 and 1992. Those diagnosis are developed by various networks of local professional and technician, related in multiple ways with Spanish peers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The new millennium presents challenges regarding the analysis of contemporary migratory movements, which have been affected by the various social processes that occur in a globalized world. With the aim of exploring recent discourses of migration, cultural and postcolonial studies have developed categories such as 'refugee', 'exile', 'outcast', 'cosmopolitan', in order to refer to different types of contemporary migrants and to explain the configuration of their identities as a result of diasporic experiences. This paper intends to examine the impact of displacement in the construction of identity of the migrant characters in short stories by Irish author Colum McCann. To this end, we revise the concepts mentioned above in the light of postcolonial and cultural theories, in the understanding that various interpretations can be discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The teaching learning process has gone a long way through the history of education in which the curriculum has been transformed within the traditional education models. This paper aims at proposing an alternative about the way of teaching, taking into account the integration of two subjects: Sociology of Culture and Social Psychology, which are taught in the Socio-cultural Studies career. By means of the syllabuses of both subjects t it is expressed the importance of teaching them through the extension, the participation and developmental elements considering the main objective of this career: to investigate the community and the bettering of their settlers. It is not possible to continue teaching these subjects separately, because they both have the same system of content. Some workshops are proposed under the principle of interdisciplinary.

In this paper I propose to investigate in shaping the field of cultural policy studies from the question of relations between ideas and policy production. Specifically, I wonder , how have crystallized into policy options the different meanings of culture? And under what paradigms have been studied? From the historical reconstruction of this process identifies those moments of change that allows build a general mapping of the matter and promptly reflect the problem that we have raised.So, I propose a journey that begins with the origins of this field of study. Then try to account for the displacement of the object from the anthropologization the concept of culture and the revitalization and cultural policy debate in the context of democratization. Then I will refer to the vocation of quantification that accompanied the neoliberal turn in the matter , and finally to raise the current paths that slips by discipline and field some questions for the future of it.Thus is expected to bring some ideas to think about forms of contact between academic discourse and public policy, specifically on those policies discursivities and criteria prevailing in the design and analysis of cultural policies.

The aim of this paper is to discuss a particular view on cultural psychology focused on "lived experience" and "vital geography" terms. It is provided some theoretical principles and applications of this perspective. According to this view, human development is the result of participation in educational practices through which people appropriate the "signs", "cultural technology" or explicit and implicit forms of shared life. It is postulated two assumptions and three features. The assumptions are: the lived experienced should be studied in the context or situation where it is expressed and constructed, and the "cultural diet" is the food of our psyche (our memories, fears, perceptions, feelings, thoughts). The features remind us to consider the human experience as the unit of analysis, both situated and distributed, and finally, as a product of participation in particular vital geographies. Applications are outlined in the field of clinical psychology and rehabilitation, socioeducative field and in the field of social psychology of organizations, as examples of practices according to a culturally oriented psychology. Finally, it is emphasized the need to take into account the subjective, social and political sides of culture in order to develop an ecological understanding of mind and human behavior.

My aim in this paper is to articulate and develop several arguments for a posthumanist, sociological perspective in which society is not confined within, and identified as, national space or defined as aggregation or structural determination of human beings. My first argument is a plea for a new social transition from the modern idea of association to the idea of a not human-centred assemblage, like we moved from community to society. In order to make it easier to assume the social agency of objects I help to get ride of the anti-fetishism bias in social sciences and show, at the same time, how the logic of technoscience, in which researchers and scientific objects are mutually constituted, is pervading the whole social reality. Last, but not least, I undertake a brief presentation of the constructive side of posthumanism in Sociology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the impact of advertising among Chilean youngsters of different socioeconomic background. We aim to identify the relationship that this group establishes with advertising and, in particular, the way they incorporate it in their socialization strategies. We do not address what advertising does to youngsters, but instead what youngsters do with advertising in their practices of appropriation and reception of it. The research design included focus groups of male and female youngsters living in Santiago de Chile between 15 and 24 coming from both high and low-income background. The conclusion of our research is that advertising is assumed by youngsters as a constitutive part of the media offering, which is used both as commercial information and as a cultural referent of new aesthetic values. Furthermore, advertising represents a socializing agent for this group because they incorporate the content of advertising in their exchange with their peers. Finally, this work concludes that advertising represents a leading sociocultural fact for the Chilean youth, because it is a central actor of their daily life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper aims to discuss the production of social identities of contemporary children and young people in connection with the processes of teacher education nowadays, mainly those working in elementary education. Based on theoretical analysts of contemporary culture, especially Zygmunt Bauman, the text begins with a more general discussion about contemporary culture which is marked by redefi ning our lifestyles, due to the centrality that the different technological artifacts with microelectronics basis have in our daily life, it treats about the issue of consumption in this context and follows with a very brief ethnographic description, guided by the anthropological maxim of doing exotic the familiar and familiar the exotic. Such an ethnographic description works as a theme to carry forward the discussion that argues for an urgent review in the curricula of our teacher education courses for elementary education. The analytical exercise demonstrates the operation of a borderless curriculum, the publicity curriculum, committed to produce contemporary children and young people, regardless of the markers of class, ethnicity, gender and nationality.
