En honor a la verdad, cada número es un nuevo alumbramiento, y se padece –vaya si se padece– sobre todo en la concepción de una publicación que es un apén- dice de todo lo que hacemos como colectivo de estudios e investigación desde el GESPyDH . O sea, nos cuesta objetivar un producto editorial porque esa es una y sólo una de las actividades que hacemos, y como amateurs que somos en la empresa editorial, no tenemos una estructura que nos permita delegar tareas, siendo, como todas las otras actividades, una distribución de tareas entre nosotros y una reasig- nación permanente en donde rotativamente, cada uno asume lugares de mayor responsabilidad . En este caso, Nicolás Maggio, devenido una suerte de secretario editorial, identidad bien ganada a fuerza de hacer las tareas que le competen a un secretario editorial (recepción de artículos, comunicación con los autores, envío de artículos para su evaluación, diseño de normas editoriales, preparación y com- pilación para el editor, contacto con el editor, correcciones, etc ). todas estas fun- ciones que en una estructura mayor y especifica recaerían seguramente en varias personas, en nuestro caso –como en muchos otros que honran la autonomía que Thompson reivindicaba para las publicaciones de izquierda– recaen en uno solo de nosotros, con el apoyo más o menos errático de algunos otros . de nosotros claro . Y cuando decimos nosotros, nos referimos al colectivo del GESPyDH, en donde con 2012 de Enero-Junio - 2 Nº - II Año • 1853-287X ISSN nuestra coordinación se desenvuelve un colectivo de investigación compuesto por un equipo que al amparo de su sombra institucional realiza sus trabajos de campo, produce los insumos para sus tesis de posgrado, y contribuye a las investigaciones marco que abordan el despliegue de las agencias de control social en su ejercicio concreto . Así, cada vez que nos posicionamos desde el saber sobre una agencia de control social, llámese cárcel, instituto de menores, policía, o justicia –solo por citar las más conocidas–, lo hacemos desde la contundencia del conocimiento em- pírico, la reconstrucción arqueológica de las prácticas y las distribuciones en torno a las normas que abordamos en clave analítica a través de herramientas concep- tuales desde distintas perspectivas teóricas y otras, emergentes, que nos permiten lecturas que interpelan las complejidades del presente en cuanto al sistema penal en general y al poder de castigar en particular . Un saber además de riguroso, comprometido ya que condensa en simultáneo el 10 a 5 pp. valor del conocimiento científico y la fuerza de una denuncia que interpela a aquellos que debieran velar por el cumplimiento de derechos y garantías, y no asistir cómplices o distraídos a su vulneración sistemática . Entre muchas cosas, los Cuadernos siguen siendo un espacio también valioso por- 6 que es una plataforma de trabajos siempre con un alto nivel académico, pero que a su vez está impregnado de una tendencia hacia la horizontalidad en los intercambios intelectuales, porque es un espacio que integra trabajos de autores consagrados y reconocidos en el plano académico internacional, investigadores con sólidas trayec- torias de muchos años, y todo el arco que va desde allí hasta estudiantes de grado, que dan cuenta de la misma vocación por investigar, por conocer y por comprometerse intelectual y políticamente . En ese sentido los Cuadernos son un espacio de encuen- tro amplio y convocante

INTRODUCTION FREEDOM of expression is an inalienable right and one of the pil- lars of a democratic society.' Since the days of de Tocqueville and Locke, media has been regarded as crucial in the prevention of au- thoritarianism and the loss of individual liberties. 2 As integral as free- dom of the press is to American society,3 many nations around the world still practice forms of prior censorship on media outlets and individual opinions alike.4 In fact, earlier this year, the Egyptian government or- dered the shutdown of the five internet service providers in Egypt while a nation-wide anti-government protest was taking place.5 Reiterating American ideals, President Obama urged Egyptian authorities to refrain from any violence and stated, "[t]he people of Egypt have [a] .

  • Persuasion, Symbols, and Alfajores: a Qualitative Study of Unique Advertising Approaches in Argentina
    Lessard UW-L Journal of Undergraduate Research XII (2009) Persuasion, Symbols, and Alfajores: A Qualitative Study of Unique Advertising Approaches in Argentina Gina Lessard Faculty Sponsor: Scott Dickmeyer, Department of Communication Studies ABSTRACT This study was conducted to gain a deeper understanding of how symbols are used in Argentine advertising and how Argentines interpret these symbols. Expanding on past research, the researcher took a deeper look at how identification is achieved with the use of symbols. The researcher investigated a particularly popular brand of dessert products called Havanna alfajores. Because of the immense popularity of the Havanna organization, the researcher interviewed 300 Argentine participants about their experiences with Havanna alfajores. Employing Strauss & Corbin’s (1990) data analysis technique, the constant comparative analysis, the researcher engaged in a structured and rigorous process of combing the messages from the interviews into five themes that addressed the research questions. The five themes that emerged from the data analysis were: the Sense of Trust that Havanna provides, Havanna facilitates relationships, Havanna is Symbol of Escape, Havanna is the Taste of Argentina, and Havanna Packaging Represents a Gift. The results of this study indicate that Havanna alfajores’ marketing effectively established identification with consumers to the point that they felt a relationship with the company and product. These findings extend Gennaro’s (2007) contention that the majority of meanings humans attach to symbols are not innate. Humans learn meaning as they grow into adulthood while the meanings are passed along members of a culture to younger generations. INTRODUCTION In recent years, the United States’ ethnically diverse population has rapidly increased to represent 30% of the entire population (Rose, 2002).

  • Argentina Returned to Democracy in 1983, After Seven Years of a Bloody Military Dictatorship
    5. In the Midst of a Revolution, with an Unusually Active State By Laura Zommer1 Argentina returned to democracy in 1983, after seven years of a bloody military dictatorship. However, its highly commercial, concentrated, non-transparent and transnational media system has remained almost unchanged. In 2009, after more than 25 years of democracy, Congress passed a new law on audiovisual media services, which seeks to democratise communications in Argentina. The law is particularly unusual: it does not regulate digital communication nor any other aspect associated with the internet, social networks and mobile telephony, the three items that have most expanded in recent years within the Argentine info-communicational industry. This law is not convergent: it forbids phone enterprises from offering cable television services and it only mentions the word internet, the most important medium for the future, in a footnote2. The internet, social networks and mobile telephony seem to have the highest potential to, at the lowest cost, multiply the players who can access content, production, share and distribution. When developed properly, the internet and mobile phones can eventually break historical alliances between non-independent media and political power, which prevents the development of human rights in certain areas of Argentine society. These alliances hinder the exercise, not only of freedom of expression and information, but also other human rights, since pro-government media generally only report on what benefits those in power. Still, it is no exaggeration to say that Argentina is experiencing a revolution in the rights to information and freedom of expression, which could trigger the fulfillment of other rights.
