520 |a Social movements throughout contemporary Latin America are succesfully influencing and shaping media policy. In this highly original, detailed, and in-depth study, Maria Soledad Segura and Silvio Waisbord scrutinize the goals, tactics, and impact of civic media movements across the region, demonstrating the full extent of media activism on domestic policy and politics. Media movements goes beyond simple conceptions of the national versus the global to reveal the complicated process of media policy-making, and to evaluate the significance of local politica elites and citizens, global actors, and legal frameworks. With success rates varying across the region, the autors offer an assessment of the impact of citizens mobilization on policy-making, as well as the effects of legislation on ownership, funding, and community, non-profit, and public media.
