Broadcast Media in Mexico.
[ send me this paper ]
(10pp) Tensions between civic-political and socioeconomic-interest-based organizing have created fertile terrain for state initiatives to keep challengers from civil society off balance, correspondingly this also puts a strain on media, and non-bias reporting. Historically as well as currently, the more sophisticated government response has been to offer incentives to movements to sacrifice their civic agendas in favor of their social agendas. At the same time, each radical reform movement was cut short by government official repression, which in turn explains the Costa Grande's parallel cycles of armed peasant resistance from the Partido de los Pobres in the 1960s to today's Ejercito Popular Revolucionario. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
