Abstract

BARRON PEREZ, Gabriel. Communication Studies Beyond the Discipline. Secuencia [online]. 2020, n.108, e1739.  Epub Oct 23, 2020. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i108.1739.

Within the framework of the frequent concern expressed by communication scholars regarding the disciplinary place they occupy and the relevance of sociocultural studies anchored in various communication expressions and communication technologies, the objective of this article is to theoretically question the discipline of communication studies. The author probes the contradictory use of the concepts of “field” and “map” as notions that involve disciplinary openness, examines disciplines as a limited exercise of thought and proposes a relational, open, and ontological image of communication.

Keywords : communication studies; discipline; map; illustration; relational space.
