Discursos alternativos en la sociedad-red_Enredadas_la experiencia de un programa de radio feminista.pdf

Among the changes brought by the new technologies of information and communication, the concept of radio has also acquired another dimension, especially how to make radio, what to communicate and why. Online broadcast and the emergence of podcasts allowed a greater openness of the radio space, a fact that has favored communication-focused social collectives and that are outside the institutional spheres. In several free radios, groups of women choose to promote counterinformation from feminisms, through the deconstruction of heteropatriarcal discourse, the spreading and creation of alternative discourses and the self-management of their voices. Giving prominence to daily individual and collective experiences. Moreover, given the available technology and diffusion through cyberspace, radio productions originated from such practices are becoming a way to network among feminist groups in different countries, encouraging a communication practice and activism that seek to break geographical barriers. This research emerges as a proposal of an approach to the problem of relations between social-political commitment and the practice of the communication and technology in the Network Society field through a critical discourse analysis of a feminist radio program. The program in question, Enredad@s, appeared in a free and self-managed radio from Malvarrosa, a suburb in the city of Valencia (Spain), and it is currently characterized by a transatlantic practice, with three production cores: Valencia , Buenos Aires and Mexico DF. Based on the situated knowledges (HARAWAY, 1995) as the appropriate episemological choice for a critical research, the shared feminist experience becomes an intersection field between scholar and militant activity. So that we can rethink the power relations and the relations between discourse and power (FOUCAULT, 2008; 1979) through the micropolitics and how they generate alternative discourses and affect changes in consciousness, through everyday and collective practices. On the other hand, is the network society a model of society favorable to feminist struggles? What do we understand by alternative discourses? Can we consider that feminists radio programs generate this kind of discourse? Whom do these discourses reach and what social impact do they have? These are some of the questions that this study suggests.
