ABSTRACT

The recent political protests around the globe since the uprising in the Arab World, the
Indignados movement in Spain, and the Occupy Movement in United States, were broadcast to the world through both the global mainstream and alternative media using many images and reports produced by people on the ground using internet, mobile phones, and social media. These events have triggered a discussion not only about the political changes taking place in the region but have also opened up an academic debate about what changes and transformations

may have occurred in the nature of citizens’ political actions and the use of social media to

communicate with people around the world. In turn, these political events have also reignited the discussion on social media as transnational public spheres beyond government control and opened to question the ethos of existing attempts at Internet governance by western nationstates.

The aim of this thesis is to engage in a theoretical discussion of this political

phenomenon through a case study of New Social Movements and social networking sites’ Uses: Mexicans’ mobilization for peace in Mexico, an important element in the development

of citizen participation on the Internet focused on in the thesis. In this process, this thesis examines how theoretically social movements have been transformed with the goal of contributing to the debate on the role of new communication technologies in redefining social movements and their potential to transform traditional political practices, such as opening up space to develop temporary alliances with the government, widening political participation in government structures, and/or exercising more influence on the policy-making process.

INTRODUCTION

This thesis aims to develop the existing understanding of how social movements for peace in Mexico use the Internet and social networking sites and to examine the central role of the Internet in enabling new public spheres of protest. The spread of the use of social networking sites and Internet have unleashed the potential for new dynamics of encounter and the formation of communities to communicate and contest power. The recent demonstrations and debates on the potential of social media for social movements show the significance of the contribution in this area. Social movements have been organized by ordinary people in Mexico to show their discontent with the violence generated in the context of the war on drugs that is affecting their daily life as well as to foster citizen participation in the country’s political life. In recent mobilizations around the world, including Mexico, the widespread use of social media has enabled the organization of demonstrations, communicative activities such as the distribution of information from newspapers and television through the use of videos, announcements for coming events and collecting money, to mention just some of communication strategies for collective action.

My interest in social movements is the result of a series of experiences that shaped my attention and a deep commitment to learn from them in an academic way. I will summarize those experiences in three events: The first experience, was in high school around the age of sixteen, when the Mexican Literature teacher introduced to the class the Mexican writer Elena

Poniatowska with her book ‘La noche de Tlatelolco’. This comprises a chronicle of eye-witness

accounts of the massacre of students on October 2, 1968 in the Plaza of the Three Cultures, also known as the Tlatelolco housing complex in Mexico City. The book collected a series of testimonies that reflect the thoughts and feelings of people both in favour and against the student movement. That was my first literary contact with social movements and it motivated me to learn more about the Mexican social justice social movements, not to mention, the historical background to the information learnt since the primary school on important mobilisations such as the Mexican Independent Movement in 1810 and Mexican Revolution in 1910.

The second experience happened when I had the opportunity to observe a demonstration, around October-November 2004, by attending a sit-in with a friend from my master’s course. The sit-in was organised a Jesuit, Fr. Pablo Martínez, from the Western Institute of Technology and Higher Education (ITESO) in the city centre of Guadalajara, in

    Pragmatics 23:1.117-145 (2013) International Pragmatics Association DOI: 10.1075/prag.23.1.06pla IN BETWEEN SPECTACLE AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS: VAMOS CON TODO – AN AMBIVALENT NEWS/TALK SHOW1 María Elena Placencia and Catalina Fuentes Rodríguez Abstract Vamos con todo is a mixed-genre entertainment programme transmitted in Ecuador on a national television channel. The segment of the programme that we examine in this paper focuses on gossip and events surrounding local/national celebrities. Talk as entertainment is central to this segment which is structured around a series of ‘news’ stories announced by the presenters and mostly conveyed through (pre-recorded) interviews. Extracts of these interviews are ingeniously presented to create a sense of confrontation between the celebrities concerned. Each news story is then followed-up by informal ‘discussions’ among the show’s 5-6 presenters who take on the role of panellists. While Vamos con todo incorporates various genres, the running thread throughout the programme is the creation of scandal and the instigation of confrontation. What is of particular interest, however, is that no sooner the scandalous stories are presented, the programme presenters attempt to defuse the scandal and controversy that they contributed to creating. The programme thus results in what viewers familiar with the genre of confrontational talk shows in Spain, for example, may regard as an emasculated equivalent. In this paper we explore linguistic and other mechanisms through which confrontation and scandal are first created and then defused in Vamos con todo. We consider the situational, cultural and socio-political context of the programme as possibly playing a part in this disjointedness.

LADB Article Id: 52969 ISSN: 1089-1560 Former President Fujimori Refuses CVR by LADB Staff Category/Department: Peru Published: 2002-09-13 Peru's Truth Commission (Comision de la Verdad y Reconciliacion, CVR) has been unsuccessful in its efforts to interview former President Alberto Fujimori (1990-2000) regarding human rights abuses committed during his ten years in office. While the former president remains out of reach of Peruvian authorities, the power and the glory once enjoyed by many close to him have vanished. In November 2000, as a wave of corruption charges hit his entire administration, Fujimori fled to Japan, where he has lived in self-imposed exile ever since. He has managed to avoid extradition through his dual Peruvian-Japanese citizenship and the support of the Japanese government. Fujimori is accused of human rights violations, corruption, and illicit enrichment. Among the human rights charges, he is accused of responsibility for two massacres in the 1990s in which 25 people, suspected of being leftist rebels, were killed by an army death squad (see NotiSur, 2001- 09-07).

  • Mediating Post-Conflict Dialogue: the Media's Role in Transitional Justice

    MEDIATING POST-CONFLICT DIALOGUE: THE MEDIA’S ROLE IN TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE PROCESSES LISA J. LAPLANTE* KELLY PHENICIE** I. INTRODUCTION ―Peru is like a double A battery: it lives permanently polarized,‖ a local journalist recently wrote in a Lima-based magazine.1 He wrote his observation nearly a decade after the conclusion of Peru‘s twenty-year internal armed conflict that began in 1980 in which state agents contributed to systematic and generalized human rights violations while fighting to defeat national subversive groups. During this conflict, print and broadcast media parted from objectivity as it became obligated to take a stand on government actions, choosing to either defend them or, alternatively, resist and face backlash. When Alberto Fujimori came to power in 1990, his authoritarian approach to national security included manipulation of the media intended to compel the public to support his repressive regime.2 Fujimori eventually fled the country in 2000 due to corruption scandals, 3 at which time a transitional government established the Peruvian Truth and Reconciliation Commission (PTRC) and initiated criminal trials to prosecute human rights abusers.4 Yet, even after issuance of the PTRC‘s nine-volume report in 2003 and the conviction of key perpetrators,5 including Fujimori, Peru still suffers intense * Visiting Assistant Professor, Marquette University Law School, and Deputy Director, Praxis Institute for Social Justice. ** Research Assistant and Project Coordinator, Praxis Institute for Social Justice, and independent researcher in conflict studies in Peru. 1.

    Revista Latinoamericana de Comunicación CHASQUI Centro Internacional de Estudios Superiores de Comunicación para América Latina [email protected] ISSN (Versión impresa): 1390-1079 ECUADOR 2001 Jorge Acevedo Rojas LOS TALK SHOWS: FASCINACIÓN O RECHAZO Revista Latinoamericana de Comunicación CHASQUI, septiembre, número 075 Centro Internacional de Estudios Superiores de Comunicación para América Latina Quito, Ecuador REVISTA LATINOAMERICANA DE COMUNICACIÓN CHASQUI Los Talk Shows: fascinación o rechazo Jorge Acevedo Rojas Peruano, comunicador social y educar. Docente universitario Correo-e: <[email protected]> Infidelidades, odio, violencia, alcoholismo, mentiras y traiciones, entre otras debilidades humanas, han pasado a formar parte de las programaciones de televisión en América Latina en la década del 90 a través de programas talk show. Las intimidades y confesiones de personas, generalmente provenientes de sectores socioeconómicos bajos, exhibidas públicamente a través de la televisión, captan la atención de millones de televidentes en diversos países de la región y en la población latina de los Estados Unidos. ¿Por qué la exhibición pública de la vida íntima, enredada y turbulenta, de algunas personas, puede generar la atención de millones de televidentes? ¿Qué hay detrás de la producción y emisión de los talk shows? ¿Qué origina que algunos de estos programas cometan excesos y degraden la dignidad de las personas? ¿Por qué este género de producción puede resultar atractivo e interesante para muchos y repulsivo para otros? Muchas interrogantes han surgido en los últimos años respecto a estos programas, en el mundo académico, entre los críticos de televisión, en instituciones y autoridades gubernamentales, así como en el propio público televidente. Incluso, en más de un país de América Latina, se han entablado demandas para suspender las emisiones de algunos talk shows.
