description This article analyzes in different dimensions the interpretation processes  on public security news and, in order to achieve that aim, the following objectives are proposed. Firstly, to discuss the foundations of the concepts of audience and public in Communications Research. Secondly, to investigate in different dimensions the process of reception and circulation of crime media representations such as the so-called "waves of insecurity", news credibility, and the impact of repetition of the same information on media consumers. Based on a qualitative study with in-depth interviews to subjects living in two neighborhoods of Buenos Aires characterized by a high perception of crime, and the use of audiovisual triggers (news of insecurity), this article questions the perspectives that tend to simplify the social influence of the media at generating social fears. Instead, the apprehension of different structures of meaning is proposed, going beyond the media in order to observe the fundamental role of experience and interpersonal communication in the processes of consolidation of certain beliefs and behaviors related to insecurity.

Este artículo se inscribe en el debate acerca de los procesos de recepción en relación a los consumos mediáticos. Específicamente, se analizan las interpretaciones y construcciones de sentidos que los públicos hacen de las noticias de inseguridad. Para ello se propone los siguientes objetivos: en primer lugar, debatir los fundamentos de los conceptos de audiencias y públicos en las investigaciones en comunicación; en segundo lugar, indagar en distintas dimensiones sobre el proceso de recepción y circulación de las representaciones mediáticas del delito como las llamadas “olas de inseguridad”, la credibilidad de las noticias y la incidencia de la reiteración de la misma información en los consumidores mediáticos. A partir de un estudio cualitativo, basado en entrevistas en profundidad con sujetos que habitan en dos barrios porteños con alta percepción del delito y el uso de disparadores audiovisuales (noticias de inseguridad), el trabajo cuestiona el lugar de los medios de comunicación como principales actores en la generación de temores sociales. En cambio, se propone vislumbrar distintos entramados de sentido, e incluso ir más allá de los medios, para observar el papel fundamental que tiene la experiencia y la comunicación interpersonal en los procesos de consolidación de determinadas creencias y comportamientos sobre la inseguridad.  Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios sobre Cultura y Sociedad 2017-12-21 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículos revisados por pares https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/astrolabio/article/view/17734 10.55441/1668.7515.n19.17734 Astrolabio; No. 19 (2017): LA EXPERIENCIA DE LOS PÚBLICOS EN AMÉRICA LATINA; 6-31 Astrolabio; Núm. 19 (2017): LA EXPERIENCIA DE LOS PÚBLICOS EN AMÉRICA LATINA; 6-31 Astrolabio; n. 19 (2017): LA EXPERIENCIA DE LOS PÚBLICOS EN AMÉRICA LATINA; 6-31 1668-7515 10.55441/1668.7515.n19 spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/astrolabio/article/view/17734/18855
