Socialidad y medios de comunicación

Notas para pensar una relación no evidente

Abstract

In this essay, the author posits the need to create a framework which will allow us to reflect upon the dynamic of the different groups which interact and inhabit the cities, as well as their possibilities of achieving "social visibility". It is through public spaces that the relationship between the media and the different patterns of socialization can be apprehended. The author concludes that the struggle of the different groups for access to public spaces, including the media, confronts the homogenizing tendencies of power. This struggle is a complex interplay of give and take which must be rethought in order to open up the imagination to new worlds as a possibility.
