Los conflictos de la comunicación en la sociedad de la información

Abstract

In this text the autor explores the main conflicts and trends in the Information Society by developing a critical diagnosis and proposals for what can be considered civilizing challenges in the new global culture. The hypothesis of the article is that the proposals for informative democratization should first be deconstructed on the basis of integrated thought in the globalized culture and, as something complementary, should also go through the political and cultural design for the Information Society using radical methods for active participation according to the principles of what has been called the “McBride spirit”. Such conditions need to be accompanied by a different culture and style of research that the critical theory still hasn´t taken on consistently in an ecosystem marked by its complexity, and by an accelerated social change.
