Abstract
ABSTRACT This essay acknowledges the theoretical contributions, the perspective and the practices carried out by Jesús Martín-Barbero concerning the popular in connection with the cultural industry and the acknowledgment of what is our own in Latin America. Based on the Martin-Barberian concept of mass popular and without losing his contribution, a conceptual re-invention is suggested to report on the meaning of entertainment, coolture and celebrity citizenship that define mainstream pop in the XXI century. In this re-invention, it is suggested that popular is defined from the bastardization of mixing together the pop, the popular, the territorial and the ancestral.
期刊介绍:
Cultural Studies is an international journal which explores the relation between cultural practices, everyday life, material, economic, political, geographical and historical contexts. It fosters more open analytic, critical and political conversations by encouraging people to push the dialogue into fresh, uncharted territory. It also aims to intervene in the processes by which the existing techniques, institutions and structures of power are reproduced, resisted and transformed. Cultural Studies understands the term "culture" inclusively rather than exclusively, and publishes essays which encourage significant intellectual and political experimentation, intervention and dialogue.
