This research resumes some discussions in Visual Sociology about methods taken from the Linguistics and the Semiotics that became increasingly useful in the analysis of visual products in the social practices. We propose a framing analysis applied to the visual representation of the peace process between the Colombian Government and the FARC between 2012 and 2016. The corpus consists in pictures from the newspaper El Tiempo, as it is a relevant actor in the framing process. This work provides an innovative methodology to understand the ways of hegemonic interpretation intended to convert a war actor into a civilian actor and his/her consequent reincorporation in the society.

The purpose of this study is to represent and discredit the political actors and systems in Latin America throughout the international news in the on-line versions of Tagesschau, Süddeutsche Zeitung and Spiegel during 2016. The authors depict how stereotyped attributions and negative images are produced when introducing Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia and Venezuela. This results in a delegitimization of the political actors and systems, as well as a reproduction of the Latin American inferiority. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
