The article analyzes the governmental measures implemented by Chile and El Salvador during the pandemic to manage the repatriation of their nationals and resident citizens who were stranded abroad due to the closing of borders, a decision imposed by governments worldwide as a measure to contain the health crisis generated by COVID-19 in their territories. The restriction to the freedom of movement of people across borders caused in several countries of the region an additional humanitarian drama to the devastating effects of the global health crisis, so this paper examines this problem from the coverage given by the Latin American media to the repatriation processes of Chileans and Salvadorans as case studies, through a qualitative documentary analysis of the news about the main difficulties and consequences generated by this humanitarian drama. An important conclusion of the study recognizes the relevance of the administrative, logistic, and communicational capacity that the diplomatic missions of Latin American countries should develop, as well as the preeminence of human rights in international relations in order to face more responsibly the migratory crisis caused by the closing of borders for sanitary reasons.

The poetic work of Esther Tapia de Castellanos is a key piece for the understanding of two fundamental cultural phenomena in the process of construction of the national project of the Mexican liberals; from the perspective of the political use of literature, it contributes to the configuration of one / another sense of Homeland, because his poems propose feminine images that endow the face of the nation with the idea of a nation that tried to settle down in those years; from the purely literary representation, his poetry is full of portraits of the must be of the Mexican woman. In the communion of both aspects Esther Tapia's poetry is, at the same time, an exercise of acceptance of the roles traditionally imposed on women and a subversive act against them, if we consider that the incursion of women in the field of the literary creation goes beyond the limits of the closed and intimate space of the home and appropriates the public scenarios reserved for the male. In this paper we propose an approach to the poems of Esther Tapia that were published in the nineteenth century press. We took as a starting point the notion of Homeland to analyze from the poetic mechanisms employees, the way in which the female subject is refracted in the texts of this author.

This article analyzes the editorial position of the Peronist magazine Línea in the face of the formation of the Multipartidaria between 1981 and 1982, during the Argentine military dictatorship (1976-1983). The Multipartidaria brought together the main Argentine political parties and functioned as a tool to pressure the military government of the time to lay the foundations of the transition to democracy. However, it featured a more "moderate" sector, inclined to the agreement with the dictatorship, and a "harder" one, not inclined to agreement with the dictatorship. The paper studies how Línea evaluated the emergence of this new political space, what position it should adopt in the face of the dictatorship and how the Peronism that integrated it was to be handled.

La Crónica (1883-1886), a morning paper from Buenos Aires, based its distance from party fights both on its title and on its editorial structure. It had three sections: a literary, a scientific and a journalistic one, so politics was out of the focus in the traditional way. It main genre was "alta crónica", which focused both in local characters and places. These "reportajes" allowed their chroniclers to find out and to experience several features of the genre which will endure for long time. Thereby, it offers a counterpoint to development of the chronicle genre and a different look both at literary and journalistic modernization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article analyzes Argentine news coverage of Nazi crimes during the period of liberation of prisoners from concentration camps, when Allied troops discovered the "atrocities" that had been committed in them. For this purpose, a corpus was put together of news articles taken from the four main Argentinean newspapers of the period: the morning papers La Prensa and La Nación, and the evening papers La Razón and Crítica. The analysis of these materials shows that the Argentine press consolidated an interpretive paradigm of Nazism as absolute "barbarity." This type of coverage created confusion regarding the place specifically reserved for Jews in the Nazi system of destruction, despite the fact that the same press had been reporting on the systematic extermination of the Jewish populations in Europe ever since 1942.

The following research is to study the figure of the editor in some online Chilean newspapers and their participation in the journalistic norms. The initial hypothesis is that the way that the norms work in online newspapers is very different from those of the daily paper. The methodology used was an in-depth interview to seven editors of online newspapers and participant observations in three of these media. The results of the investigation led to the conclusion that the way to work the norms in the online newspaper is very different than its daily paper, the editor plays a different role from traditional media and online Chilean newspapers are still less independent from their paper versions.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the influence of the media and advertising in shaping female stereotypes in Zacatecas, in the early 20th century. It seeks to identify the changes and strategies used by publishers and advertisers to insert society into a new culture, characterized, among other things, by fashion, consumerism, comfort and physical beauty. Theoretically and methodologically, the author draws on women's and gender studies. From the analysis, one can infer that the press was a window through which Zacatecans gradually entered public life, and advertising a space where they were turned into objects of consumerism.

This article presents a part of the research study regarding the process of constructing representations within the national and international press about the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia -- People's Army (FARC -- EP) throughout a period from its inception as a guerrilla group in 1964, to its consolidation as an army which set the Colombian State on edge in 1996.

The ambivalence of representations is discussed herein, as well as how the image of a narco-guerrilla gradually takes shape. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the phraseology adopted by women's magazines in Argentina during the early 1990s, based on two cases that embody different approaches: a traditional one (Para Ti) and a more feminist-oriented approach (Women & Company). The analysis focuses on styles and personal pronouns to track the ways in which the relationship between the speaker and listener is constructed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
