Book excerpt: Pensar la relevancia de la televisión hoy significa abordar los desafíos democráticos que ella enfrenta respecto a las coyunturas políticas, el contexto de convergencia mediática, el papel de los medios públicos y los procesos de innovación y ruptura en la ficción y en los géneros informativos. Todo esto en contextos complejos de polarización política, agudas crisis sociales y presiones a favor del replanteamiento del modelo neoliberal y de sus exclusiones e inequidades. En Los desafíos a las televisiones en América Latina dieciséis especialistas de distintos países del continente estudian el panorama actual y algunos procesos y experiencias en Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia y México. Este libro busca estimular el debate y el desarrollo de estudios críticos sobre la televisión y el ecosistema mediático en su relación con las culturas políticas, las políticas públicas y la in-novación en temas, narrativas y formatos, asumiendo los retos como oportunidades de cambios de rumbo y creación de nuevos derroteros para la producción, circulación y recepción crítica del medio televisivo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American Television makes English speakers aware of the dimensions, operation, and significance of the globalization of television in the Spanish-speaking world. Second only in scale to the market for English-language programming, the Spanish-language market embraces not just most nations of South and Central America but also Spain, and even the United States—the sixth largest Spanish-speaking country in the world. This intercontinental space is connected physically by satellite communication, and culturally by a common language and heritage which binds it as both a `geolinguistic region' and an `imagined community' which certain media corporations, Latin American and North American, seek to exploit. A similar phenomenon with regard to Brazil and the Portuguese-speaking world is also examined, with special attention to its comparable features and points of exchange with the Spanish-speaking world. The book chronicles and analyses the development and structure of the globalization of these markets as a `Latin world'.

Download or read book From Telenovelas to Netflix Transnational Transverse Television in Latin America written by Joseph Straubhaar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about television in Latin America. Its national and regional industries create most television programming there within genres developed over time in the region. However, part of the programming has always come from the U.S., Europe and elsewhere. With cable, satellite and now streaming TV, that inflow of foreign programming has increased substantially. While many in the audience still prefer national or regional programs for their cultural proximity, an increasing number among the upper-middle and middle classes, particularly the young, are turning to the new foreign services, like Netflix, Amazon and Disney for class distinction, cosmopolitanism or other motives. Among the television industries, global, regional and national actors are creating a variety of programs and channels (broadcast, pay-TV and streaming) to segment and appeal to different parts of the audience.

Download or read book Transnational Latin American Television written by Nahuel Ribke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-28 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the process of transnationalization of Latin American television industries. Drawing upon six representative case studies spanning the subcontinent’s vast and diverse geo-political and cultural landscape, the book offers a unique exploration of the ongoing formation of interrelated cultural, technological, and political landscapes, from the mid-1980s to the present. The chapters analyse the international circulation of the genres and formats of entertainment television across the subcontinent to explore the main driving forces propelling the production and consumption of television contents in the region, and what we can learn about the cultural and social identities of Latin American audiences following the journey of genres, formats, and media personalities beyond their own national borders. Taking a contemporary interdisciplinary approach to the study of transnational television industries, this book will be of significant interest to scholars and students of television and film studies, communication studies, Latin American studies, global media studies, and media and cultural industries.

This book was released on 2022-12-16 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on a mixed-method, longitudinal study of the transmission, production, and reception of Spanish- and Portuguese-language television in four global cities with expanding Latinx diasporic populations. The author tracks and analyzes the production practices of Spanish-language broadcasters, the highlights of news and cultural affairs coverage, changes in the shooting locations and sociocultural discourses of telenovelas (both imported from Latin America and domestically produced), the presence of SLTV in the national political sphere, and the modes of media access and opinions of over 400 viewers in Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami, and Madrid. The possibilities created by SLTV and PLTV for achieving a sense of enfranchisement are explored. Intended for a general, as well as academic reading audience.

Download or read book The Extent of Poverty in Latin America written by Oscar Altimir and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work originated in a research project for the measurement and analysis of income distribution in the Latin American countries, undertaken jointly by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the World Bank. The present paper presents estimates of the extent of absolute poverty for ten Latin American countries and for the region as a whole in the 1970s, on the basis of available household surveys and population censuses. They are based on country-specific poverty lines representing minimum acceptable levels of private consumption, drawn according to a food-based method. Such poverty lines - ranging from 150 to 250 dollars of annual household consumption per capita - express a normative definition of the absolute dimensions of poverty, partly based on expert appraisals and partly reflecting the actual behavior of low income households facing the life style projected by Latin American development. According to these estimates, 40 percent of Latin American households were poor at the beginning of the 1970s, the incidence of poverty being 26 percent in urban areas and 60 percent in rural areas. Urban poverty extended to more than one-third of urban households in some countries (Brazil, Colombia, Honduras) while affecting between 20 and 30 percent in others (Peru, Mexico, Venezuela), about 15 percent in Costa Rica and Chile and less than 10 percent in Argentina and Uruguay. The extent of poverty in rural areas would not be less than 20 percent in any case and would reach more than 60 percent in some countries. The corresponding poverty gaps were also estimated; in terms of total household income, they may represent manageable proportions (around 2-3 percent) in the better-off countries, but are in the 4-8 percent range in the bigger countries of the region and reach as much as 12 percent in Peru and 17 percent in Honduras.

Download or read book Happiness a Foolish Pursuit written by Iqra Saeed and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-23 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reason behind the discomfort of mankind is the absence of meaning and consequently, they spend their lives in utter confusion while always trying to find out which direction they should head towards. In the pursuit of this direction--which is an inborn thirst inside them, they get lost in the pursuit of happiness when in actual thinking of happiness as a motivation to live is a deadly concept and that is why those who rely only on happiness, never end up finding their meaning of life. The meaning of life cannot be something temporary and can be found out in both happiness and pain--and this when discovered, results in a life of peace, harmony, and clarity. Not only this, it connects the humans with the divine purpose they are here for, which is consistent growth leading to excellence in terms of spirituality, purification, and connection with the divine. The book explains the complete picture of the meaning of life, in terms of man's journey from birth to death and a journey beyond death. This will help you see your life--to answer you about all the pain and miseries you have ever come across, and to prepare you for the upcoming trials of your life so that you do not remain lost and confused anymore and you get to tackle the life challenges with positive attitude, staunch confidence and a sheer will for sticking to the purpose anyhow. Once you internalize the concepts explained in this book, you will be able to identify your goals, discover your passion and how to align that passion with purpose to spend a life of satisfaction. It will help you become strong and most importantly, it will help you connect with the love of The Lord Most High at deeper levels.
