ABSTRACT
WATCHING AS A TRADE: THE CONDITIONS AND CHALLENGES POSED BY THE COMMUNICATION AND CITIZENSHIP OBSERVATORY. This article shows the conclusions reached by the Youngsters watch media Project activities conducted by the Communication and Citizenship Observatory for the Center of Advance Studies, National University of Cordoba.
This project was developed under a specific context; it involved the discussion of the Bill of Audiovisual Media Services and it sub- sequent presentation to the National Congress, which highlighted an unprecedented situation: a public debate about mass media. The media, characterized by the constitution of a part of the social life, that is always present in daily life routine; the media which represents, at the same time, one of the fields that population deep ignore regarding its regulation and functioning.
In this way, witnessing the significant legitimacy of the actual media system scenario, this project drew together three types of activities: media monitoring concerning previous discussions to the presentation of the Bill of Audiovisual Media Services; citizen consultation “TV: how we love ya!” about youngster’s relationship with the media; and high school discussion groups with teenagers of Cordoba City, being contributions to the appropriation and broaden- ing of communication and information rights in the current debate existing in our country.
Throughout the study of this experience, discussions are presented about the perspectives and the research grounds of the Study Center.
