Wednesday, October 10, 2012
Esteban del Río, PhD, Communication Studies, published the lead article in the July 2012 issue of the Journal of Communication Inquiry entitled “Accentuate the Positive: Americanos and the Articulation of Latina/o Life in the United States.” The piece features a textual, contextual, and extra-textual analysis of an effort by the Smithsonian Institution and Time Warner to articulate a celebratory Latinidad and U.S. national imaginary. It argues for a relational and radically contextual approach to the politics of representation and the construction of unity and difference.
