The communication management: between professional precariousness and algorithmic design

In this paper, we briefly introduce three aspects of what might be considered a Latin-American school of political economy of communication. The first aspect is an institutional history that highlights the efforts to be present at universities as well as researcher organizations and other spaces of independent discussions such as journals and observatories. Second aspect, incorporates both European and North-American theoretical and epistemological traditions, which gives a way to a Latin-American re-elaboration. The third aspect, is the making of a particular history. Such history is, nevertheless, non-homogeneous as it takes into account the specificities of Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico. Finally, some categories elaborated or re-elaborated within the Latin-American camp, stand out as they contribute for a better dialog with other strands at the world level. As a conclusion remark is that, despite its internal development, the Anglo-American intellectual and academic traditions still prevail.
