Abstract

ACUNA, Hernán González. Media Narration and Public Power: Towards Communication as a Human Right. Comunicación [online]. 2015, vol.24, n.1, pp.37-46. ISSN 1659-3820.

This paper synthetically approaches the link between the exercise of citizens' rights and communicative practices from three complementary, different perspectives: the appropriation of communication for production, the configuration of a social world through narrative functions, and last but not least, the right to communication. Such approaches derive in a call to demand the right to the latest forms communication, oriented towards the discern and resistance of the superfluous and simplistic logic of entertainment, articulating theoretically and practically the exercise of the rights of citizens with social communication processes.

Keywords : Right to communicate; communication and development; citizenry; social communication; mass culture; democratization of communication; ethics of communication..
