The history of the studies of communication in debate

Abstract

This article proposes to investigate, from the recent problematizaciones on the history of the studies of communication in the Argentina and in Latin America, the «historical» statements that hegemonizaron in the field towards ends of the eighties and beginning of the nineties, understood as part of the processes of constitution of a selective tradition, placed in his own social conditions of possibility. From this point of item, one tries to realize of what way the joint of theoretical-methodological perspectives like the sociology of the culture and the intellectual history appears as a productive entry to think the emergency processes of the question for the communication about our continent, contributing intelligibility to processes planned by tensions, by cultural conflicts and by the political and intellectual radicalization.
