Abstract

Community radio began in Uruguay in the post-dictatorship years of the 1980s. Until December 2007 however, these stations were pirate broadcasters that had been excluded from the country's broadcasting system. Today, not only have these stations gained legal status, they have become active partners in the regulation of Uruguay's broadcasting system. This article documents the development of community broadcasting, the role of civil society in bringing about regulatory change, and innovative approaches to policymaking. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
