Latin American communication theories: From origins to contemporary approaches

Carlos Alberto Scolari, Sandra Valdettaro, Leonarda García-Jiménez (eds.)

Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley & Sons (2026), 320 pp.

"Latin American Communication Theory presents an innovative and comprehensive anthology that delves into the evolution and diversity of communication theories in Latin America. Spearheaded by an editorial team of distinguished scholars with rich, complementary backgrounds, the project promises a mul ... tidimensional exploration of the field. Structured in two main sections, the volume embarks on a chronological journey through the "official history" of Latin American communication theories. It begins with the theories of development from the 1960s, progresses through the ideological critiques of the 1970s, and culminates with the culturalist approach that has dominated since the 1980s. This narrative is enriched by a selection of 16 texts, authored by 19 scholars - 11 men and 8 women - from Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, and Venezuela, ensuring a balanced and comprehensive representation. The second section of the book breaks new ground by including authors and perspectives traditionally overlooked in the canonical history. It features emerging scholars addressing contemporary issues such as feminism, decoloniality, race, capitalism, ecology, and narcoculture, offering a broader and more inclusive view of the field."
