A Convergência Recente Entre Os Setores Brasileiros De Comunicação De Massa E De Telecomunicações: Uma Discussão João Martins Ladeira1
A convergência recente entre os setores brasileiros de comunicação de massa e de telecomunicações: uma discussão João Martins Ladeira1 Resumo Investiga-se aqui o processo recente de convergência entre setores de telecomunicações e comunicação de massa (especialmente o audiovisual), ocorrido em nosso país durante a última década. Assim, toma-se como referência a economia política da comunicação e o debate sobre a empresa em rede. Desdobramento da segunda onda de globalização no segmento audiovisual nacional, a reorganização desta indústria cultural ocorre pela presença de corporações de telecomunicações na difusão da comunicação de massa através de participação acionária em operações de televisão por assinatura. É um cenário distinto daquele no qual predominavam os oligopólios que historicamente controlaram o mercado brasileiro. O texto analisa os empreendimentos globais e as alianças estratégicas presentes na ligação entre grupos nacionais e estrangeiros, como na associação entre Globo e Telmex, na fusão entre Sky e DirecTV e no empreendimento conhecido como Vivax, posteriormente incorporado a Net. Palavras-chave Economia Política da Comunicação, Empresa em Rede, Estudos de Globalização Introdução Este artigo analisa o processo recente de convergência entre os setores de telecomunicações e de comunicação de massa (especialmente o audiovisual), ocorrido em nosso país durante a última década. Para isso, toma como referência teórica a discussão sobre economia política da comunicação (Bolaño 2004) e o debate de Castells (1996) relativo à empresa em rede. Tal investigação se associa ao esforço que busca entender a forma como se estabelecem dinâmicas de poder no interior das indústrias produtoras de bens culturais (Mosco 2009), na expectativa de compreender os enfrentamentos empreendidos pelos diversos envolvidos no processo de definição e institucionalização de modelos de exploração econômica numa economia capitalista contemporaneamente reformulada (Bolaño & Brittos 2007, Castells 1996, Moraes 1998). -
