Presenting a range of case studies by prominent media and politics scholars,
this volume addresses current debates concerning media, democracy and power
in the context of the recent political and social transformations across South
America. Struggling to resolve decades of market crises and political instability,
new democracies in the region have challenged the status quo and created new
media spaces for wider pluralism. The book was edited by Cheryl Martens,
Ernesto Vivares and Robert W. McChesney.
