| Juan Luis Manfredi Sánchez | Globalización y poder: la consolidación de la comunicación internacional como disciplina | El profesional de la información, 29, 1 | 2020 | Se presenta un recorrido sobre el desarrollo teórico y las principales líneas de investigación de la comunicación internacional. Para ello, se analiza la aparición de la comunicación en la configuración del poder en cuatro vertientes (duro, blando, punzante y narrativa estratégica). Se examina la perspectiva crítica y el dominio anglosajón de la materia, con evidencias de Francia, Alemania, o América Latina. Se anticipan cinco ejes de futuras investigaciones, como son el propio fortalecimiento de las bases teóricas y metodológicas con métodos interdisciplinares; la naturaleza y característica del periodista internacional (corresponsales frente a noticias falsas); el manejo de la comunicación populista ante una globalización política con líderes que dificultan el ethos periodístico convencional; el análisis de las estructuras; y los sistemas mundiales de información ante un escenario multipolar y menos ¿efecto CNN¿ del esperado, y la constante dinámica de innovación de la propaganda. | http://profesionaldelainformacion.com/contenidos/2020/ene/manfredi_es.pdf | ||||
