Ecología y espectáculo en el discurso televisivo

Abstract

In this essay the author describes the discursive forms or "looks" of Ecology on Television: Ecology as adventure, as a catastrophe, as Science, as a humanitarian discourse, Ecology with an optimistic view, with a romantic view, as solidarity and a challenge and as the apotheosis of the spectacular. According to the author, our modern reality has turned into a show for the silent majority who has not done anything but consuming our own desires reflected on the televised interior discourse. Consequently, the logic of this discourse on regards of social events, such as Ecology, casts some "looks" on them.
