"With regards to professional role orientations, journalists in El Salvador found it most important to report things as they are, to monitor and scrutinize political leaders, to educate the audience, and to let people express their views. The relevance of these roles was fairly undisputed among the ... more
"This ethnographic study explores how four alternative media projects in El Salvador integrated digital technologies-particularly social media-into their practices, and whether incorporating these technologies affected citizen participation not only in the media production process, but in a broader ... more
"Frente a la tendencia regional y global que lleva a gobiernos y a proveedores de servicio a acumular una cantidad cada vez mayor de información sobre sus usuarios, este estudio intenta una aproximación comparada a la manera en que las legislaciones de México, Brasil, Colombia, Perú, Argentina y ... more

Internet: Smarte neue Welt

welt-sichten, issue 12 (2017), pp. 12-42

In Kenia nutzt die Regierungspartei in Wahlkämpfen bereits die gleichen Datenanalysen, die in den USA Donald Trump geholfen haben, Präsident zu werden. Und in der Wirtschaft bewirken Daten und Internet-Pla ... more

Para llevar a cabo esta investigación, SembraMedia, con ... more
"The main finding of this study is that digital media entrepreneurs are deeply transforming the way that journalism is conducted and consumed in Latin America.

In Europa verliert der Hörfunk zwar an Zuhörerschaft, aber gerade in Ländern des Südens sind Radiostationen ein sehr wichtiges Mittel der Kommunikation. Eine südafrikanische Universität entwickelte jüngst ein Spracherkennu ... more
"Violence against journalists has emerged as a global human rights issue as the number of those killed in the profession has steadily risen in the new millennium.

"Habría muchas razones para suponer una relación natural entre el periodismo y la democracia, desde la difusión de información y la socialización de debates relevantes para el interés público, hasta la vigilancia contra el abuso de poder. En México, sin embargo, el periodismo no ha sido plen ... more
"With regards to professional role orientations, the vast majority of journalists in Mexico found it extremely or very important to report things as they are, followed in second place by the role of promoting tolerance and cultural diversity, and the role of advocating for social change in third pla ... more

Through an analysis of in-depth interviews with journalists in northern Mexico, this qua ... more
