[Commlist] New IAMCR/Palgrave book - Communicology of the South

Fri Oct 21 21:21:29 GMT 2022





Edited by Carlos F. Del Valle Rojas and Francisco Sierra Caballero /Communicology of the South: Critical Perspectives from Latin America/ is the 18th title in the Palgrave/IAMCR book series Global Transformations in Media and Communication Research <https://iamcr.org/publications/iamcr-book-series>.

The book addresses new conceptual bases for thinking critically about communication as necessary for confronting power, property and the market as part of the daily resistance of Latin American subaltern cultures. The chapters explore an urgent field of situated knowledge and spark a much-needed dialogue. The editors view emancipatory communication experiences as disruptive acts of resistance, prompted mainly by social movements. These experiences have opened up political modes of communication by establishing a decolonising axis in the field of communication and reconstructing the history and memory of Latin America. This book will be a valuable reference for researchers, academics and students interested in the role of communication and culture in processes of social transformation.
