Recent changes in the economic and political world scenario have
been dominated by an increasing globalising process and a constant
capital mobilisation. This process has left a significant mark on
nation-based economies and cultural systems, giving a prominent
role to the economic agencies and sectors involved in information
and communication industries. The influence and side-effects of
this new scenario for public policies in southern countries are
just uncertain. The present volume provides the analytical and
conceptual framework from which to explore the issue of political
economy of communication. The chapters introduce the reader to the
knowledge of the features, inner contradictions and the dialectics
of regional alternative communication versus information control.
By doing this, different questions are addressed: from the
ideological perspectives implied in the ethnocentric reproduction
of prevalent cultural paradigms (and the persistence of cultural
inequalities), to central issues concerning the "digital
revolution" and its impact on the political economy of
communication and culture worldwide, with a special emphasis on
Latin America.
