Exploring the culture and media of the Americas, this handbook places particular emphasis on collective and intertwined experiences and focuses on the transnational or hemispheric dimensions of cultural flows and geocultural imaginaries that shape the literature, arts, media and other cultural expressions in the Americas.The Routledge Handbook to the Culture and Media of the Americas charts the pervasive, asymmetrical flows of cultural products and capital and their importance in the development of the Americas. The volume offers a comprehensive understanding of how inter-American communication is constituted, framed and structured, and covers the artistic and political dimensions that have shaped literature, art and popular culture in the region. Forty-six chapters cover a range of inter-American key concepts and dynamics, divided into two parts:Literature and Music deals with inter-American entanglements of artistic expressions in the Western Hemisphere, including music, dance, literary genres and developments.Media and Visual Cultures explores the inter-American dimension of media production in the hemisphere, including cinema and television, photography and art, journalism, radio, digital culture and issues such as freedom of expression and intellectual property.This multidisciplinary approach will be of interest to a broad array of academic scholars and students in history, sociology, political science; and cultural, postcolonial, gender, literary, globalization and media studies.

En lugar de sumarse a los discursos fatalistas sobre el fin de los medios y sus audiencias, TVMorfosis reconoce las mutaciones comunicacionales contemporáneas en el marco de las brechas digitales que se asientan en las asimetrías económicas y socioculturales que, al mismo tiempo, subrayan y reproducen. Esto no impide reconocer "lo nuevo" de la condición comunicacional contemporánea (Orozco), el intercambio constante entre las posiciones de emisor y receptor, concebidos como prosumers; la emergencia y diversidad de las audiencias denominadas por Lozano como "parroquianos, cosmopolitas, exploradores y colonos"; y el (re)descubrimiento de las historias, de los cuentos, de los contenidos como razón y fundamento de los procesos de comunicación, pasando de la centralidad de los medios a la centralidad de las narrativas (Scolari).Ante estos retos, otro conjunto de textos (Torres, Franco, García Moreira y Verano) presentan experiencias, diagnósticos y análisis de políticas públicas en materia de medios y telecomunicaciones. Finalmente, los textos de Wolton y Ramonet ponen el acento en torno a los procesos de comunicación política y los desafíos democráticos de las sociedades desigualmente conectadas.
