Capitalism and new technologies in the news industry: the post-fordism restructuralization in ‘assembly lines’ and in work organization

Abstract

Geopolitics is an area of knowledge that has contributed to the understanding of the communication phenomenon. The Brazilian experience is a showcase of this fact. Communication technologies were regarded by Brazilian authorities as strategic in the Brazilian territorial settlement and control. This fact shows also the interest revealed by geopolitics in the cultural themes, as well as in the formation of a national identity through such media networks and displays.
