This book examines democratizing media reforms in Latin America.
The author explains why some countries have recently passed such
reforms in the broadcasting sector, while others have not. By
offering a civil society perspective, the author moves beyond
conventional accounts that perceive media reforms primarily as a
form of government repression to punish oppositional media.
Instead, he highlights the pioneering role of civil society
coalitions, which have managed to revitalize the debate on
communication rights and translated them into specific regulatory
outcomes such as the promotion of community radio stations. The
book provides an in-depth, comparative analysis of media reform
debates in Argentina and Brazil (analyzing Chile and Uruguay as
complementary cases), supported by original qualitative research.
As such, it advances our understanding of how shifting power
relations and social forces are affecting policymaking in Latin
America and beyond.
