Abstract

FUENTES NAVARRO, Raúl. Trajectories on the field in the field: academic meta-research on communication in Mexico. Comun. soc [online]. 2022, vol.19, e8538.  Epub Mar 24, 2023. ISSN 0188-252X.  https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v2022.8538.

The aim of this essay is to reflexively recover the processes of elaboration and conceptual as well as methodological development of a heuristic model of an “academic field”, in search of interpreting the conditions and intentions of the institutionalization of communication studies in Mexico. These have been assumed for more than three decades in terms of a meta-research proposal, which in turn serves to recognize and articulate the research practices in their diverse contextual scales. The contribution of the journal Comunicación y Sociedad is located in this trajectory.

Keywords : Academic field; communication; Mexico; meta-research.
