Gobernabilidad Mediática - Mass media y grado de gobierno: difícil (des)encuentro

Abstract

This article seeks to explore the difficult relation between mediatization and governability from a conceptual perspective, rather than a historical or empirical one. The purpose is to discuss some keys to reading, i.e. to propose a dialog on the theme. To that end, the exposition is organized around the idea of mediatic governability. The analytical purpose is to further the understanding of how the means of mass communication affect democracy in the Political Communication scenario and, more importantly, how they interact with the (un)governance of the political regime.
