La aparicion en las librerias y televisiones de medio mundo de las historias del comisario Montalbano, obra de Andrea Camilleri, han hecho que muchas de las localizaciones usadas en la ficcion audiovisual donde trascurren y ambientan muchas de sus historias se hayan convertido en alguno de los lugares mas visitados de la isla por los fans de la serie tanto de Italia como de otros paises del mundo donde la serie es todo un fenomeno mediatico","PeriodicalId":41893,"journal":{"name":"Westminster Papers in Communication & Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2020-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79223063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Son, al mismo tiempo, souvenirs y maneras de comunicacion cuyos usos y sentidos son multiples y variados. Como medio de comunicacion, ya anacronico o nostalgico, son objetos de un pasado que nos permite hacer un analisis historico, visual y narrativo de como se retrataban los destinos turisticos, enfatizando el significado y sentido de lo exotico, la superioridad del occidente colonial y la fascinacion por la aventura. Analizar sus cambios, es decir, las transformaciones en las representaciones de ese destino turistico, como se ha ido alterando lo escenificado, suelen tener que ver mucho en como la mirada social del turista y del destino cambian, trastocando estos fragmentos de comunicacion y narrativas de lo subjetivo. Desde una aproximacion cualitativa de las postales turisticas de marruecos (1890-2016), se realiza una revision del desarrollo turistico y politico del pais, de los cambios esteticos y de contenido representativo de la tarjeta postal y de la mirada social hacia lo colonial y decolonial que se percibe en las representaciones de estos fragmentos de papel que, souvenirs o medios de comunicacion, siguen teniendo un lugar como escaparate publicitario de un destino.","PeriodicalId":41893,"journal":{"name":"Westminster Papers in Communication & Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2020-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86793737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper also contemplates campaigns specific to Mexico and the difficulties and successful strategies that have been developed. In order to have a greater impact on the public sphere, it seeks to identify the perspectives that influence the campaign designs as well as develop creative strategies for future campaigns on racism in Mexico.This text also addresses ideas regarding social change, progress and development.

{"title":"How to Define ‘Viral’ for Media Studies?","authors":"Anastasia Denisova","doi":"10.16997/wpcc.375","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.16997/wpcc.375","url":null,"abstract":"In this editorial for WPCC’s ‘Viral Media’ issue the author asks whether the metaphor of viral media has held up well since it was coined. Considering the debate she suggests a clear distinction – notwithstanding the major role of technology – of viral media, when compared to biological viruses, which is the role of emotions in driving virality. This is what ‘distinguishes the biological “virus” from its psychologically driven communication counterpart’. ‘Viral’ is indeed an ‘imperfect term for rapid spread of information’ but viral media items still have the potential to deliver ‘progressive ideas’. This editorial notes how the contents of the issue plays host to a variety of fresh perspectives in its themes such as corrupted play, journalistic choice, viral politics, voice and nostalgia. It also notes, referring to the issue’s interview with Kishonna Gray, the dangers of platforms simply standing aside to allow toxic viral messaging and racism. It may be impossible to counter ‘morally ambivalent’ memes with regulatory or any other kind of ‘vaccines’ though it might, the author concludes, ‘be reasonable to limit the expanse of the viral flows and to question the algorithmic patterns of digital platforms’ even as memes’ popularity and resistance to total marketing control preserve their continuing (if somewhat tarnished) reputation as a ‘digital darling’.","PeriodicalId":41893,"journal":{"name":"Westminster Papers in Communication & Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2020-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48283246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Palabras clave: Meme, Redes Sociales, Plataformas Digitales, Imaginarios Sociales, Identidad, Mexico Abstract Memes have become a form of expression representative of the digital media culture, used for the representation of social values and imaginaries. As a case study, we analyzed the memes published within the framework of the performance of the Mexican soccer team at the 2018 FIFA World Cup-Russia, which allowed us to understand the social imaginaries that build Mexican cultural identity in networks such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and digital platforms such as WhatsApp and Informative Websites. The study uses a qualitative digital ethnographic methodology, with a sociocultural approach, for phenomena in networks and digital platforms (Hine, 2005, Wouters and Beaulieu, 2009, Ardevol and Gomez, 2012), which allowed to recover 600 memes in various communities, platforms and networks close social. For its categorization and analysis we used the concepts of social imaginaries of Cornelius Castoriadis (1997), Mexican identity from Ramos (1951), Paz (1992), Villoro (2018), Giddens (1997), Gimenez (2000), Berger and Luckmann ( 2006), as well as the approach to concepts of digital narratives such as the meme in Dawkins (1989), transmedia and multiplatform, from Jenkins (2008) and Scolari (2013).
