Abstract
BARRANQUERO, Alejandro. Latinoamérica en la ruptura del paradigma de la comunicación para el desarrollo. El recorrido de los pioneros en la búsqueda de alternativas democráticas. Punto Cero [online]. 2005, vol.10, n.11, pp.7-22. ISSN 1815-0276.
The following lines pretend to chronicle the process through which Latin American scholars and professionals have gradually sharpened their insights into a new communication for development paradigm, based on grassroots participation and opposed to the dominant one (north american modernization paradigm). Evaluating the recognition of Latin American communication legacy, we intend to analyse, synthetically, the contribution of the most significant thinkers and researchers of the region in the search of a new approach in development communication, particulary focused in democracy, participation, dialogue and empowerment.
Keywords : Communications Theory; paradigm; democracy.
