“…It appears that Latinos have visibility as the protagonists of the main themes in regard to Latino culture, society and politics, as stated in the second hypothesis. This leading role of Latinos collides with the low representation that they have in the mainstream media in Spain (Romero-Rodríguez et al, 2018), and also in the United States (Retis, 2017;Vaquera, Aranda & Gonzales, 2014).…”

“…The prevalent themes in the Latino publications in Spain represent the main elements related to the Latino identity. Despite the rise of Latin American migrations around the world, Latinos are underrepresented and portrayed by negative stereotypes in the media, both in the United States (Reis, 2017) and Spain (Romero-Rodríguez et al, 2018). Latinos have been made invisible in mainstream media, they are newsworthy if they are involved in topics of social conflict, and they are perceived as a market but less as content producers (González de Bustamante & Retis, 2017).…”

The evolution of Latino print media in Spain has coincided with the demographic increase of Latin American immigrants in the country since the early 1990s. Starting with one publication in 1992, the market started to grow in 2003 and reached its peak in 2007 with the edition of more than 100 titles. The advertising crisis of 2008 ended this trend, and the number of publications began a continuous and permanent decline in the following years despite a demographic recovery of Latin Americans in Spain after 2016. This research presents a quantitative analysis of the contents of 1,500 news items from 14 Latino newspapers and magazines that survived the 2008 advertising downfall. Six of these 14 media outlets continue publishing in 2023. The objective of this study is to show the connections between the contents of the analyzed Latino print media and the cultural identities of their readers. The results show that the prevalent themes related to culture, society and politics represent the identities of their Latino readers. Latino publications give visibility to Latinos as the protagonists of their contents. In addition, the origin of the protagonists shows the wide range of Latin American countries in correlation with the diverse Latin American origins of the readers. We discuss the implications of these findings within the volatile context of Latino print media in Spain, the growing Latin American demographics, and the formation of diverse Latino identities.

“…"Representation itself has been characterized as keeping the subordinate subordinate, [and] the inferior inferior" (Said, 2007, p. 95). Romero-Rodríguez et al (2018) conducted an analysis of the different Latin American characters present in Spanish television between 2014 and 2017. The team discovered that out of the 26 codes assigned to describe the characters, 22 of them had a negative connotation (p. 103).…”

Challenging European Identity: Representations of Female Transnational Experiences in Marrón by Rocío Quillahuaman

This paper examines how the representations of female experiences in Marrón, a transnational Life Writing text written by Rocío Quillahuaman, challenge a hegemonic European identity. This European identity was forged after centuries of cultural productions, especially narratives, that vouched for its superiority. In our globalized world today, transnational subjects, who mobilize for varied reasons, face discriminatory legislations and unfair bureaucratic procedures based on their backgrounds and affiliations. Although identities may benefit a sense of belonging and camaraderie that are part of living in societal structures, the fact that a hegemonic European identity has been used to discriminate needs to be contested. To accomplish this contestation, the research’s method encompasses a close reading of the text with a thematic deductive analytic approach to bring forth the importance that transnational narratives, especially those written by Brown women, have in the new modes of identity construction. Through the representations of female transnational experiences, which I referred to as: 1) the monolingual transnational female subject, 2) the displaced transnational female subject, and 3) the unrepresented transnational female subject, this paper argues in favor of a fluid transnational identity construction that is context dependent and malleable through one’s lifetime and physical (dis)placement.

“…The media are responsible for creating social identities by developing knowledge structures that include clichés or stereotypes. Stereotypes develop a greater force in the emotional plane of discourse and force the consumer of information to follow the schemes elaborated by the media on the basis of constant repetition, the aim of which is to make the mirage become an indisputable reality (Romero-Rodríguez et al , 2015b; Torres-Toukoumidis et al , 2017; Romero-Rodríguez et al , 2019). The use of stereotypes can lead to the following consequences (Vasilachis de Gialdino, 2007): the tendency to generate a negative image of otherness, emphasizing what differentiates them to the detriment of what identifies them with the rest of the people; the extension of discriminatory processes; the denial [demonization] of some and the recognition [sacralization] of «others»; and the exercise of violence – symbolic or material – through repeated ignorance of the principle of essential equality. …”

Purpose This study aims to review the theory based on «otherness» as a form of social exclusion and symbolic violence from the constructions of realities of the media, with particular emphasis on the ethics and aesthetics of language and its role in materializing identity differences. Design/methodology/approach A search for specific criteria and boolean algorithms is carried out in Web of Science and Scopus on «otherness» [AND] «social exclusion», to then submit the emerging results to a co-occurrence matrix by citations with VOSViewer v. 1.6.13. From the relation tree of the most cited documents [min = 7] of the downloaded articles, a critical/analytical reading is made. Findings «Otherness» is reviewed to a greater extent from a Western perspective, and more specifically, from a Eurocentric one. This implies that the study of «otherness» is not sufficiently analyzed by Asian or African authors, who are excluded from the analysis. In this sense, «otherness» is understood as a theoretical construct and as any symbolic construction of the other (phenotypically, but also in ideology, values and customs), but which carries a load of stereotypes that can become polarization, demonization, ergo and violence. Originality/value Revisiting «otherness» as an informative construct becomes imperative in light of the emergence of extremist groups and xenophobic parties, as well as separatist policies such as Brexit or the Catalan split in Spain. Few articles contribute to elaborating a complete conceptual construct on «otherness» as an epistemological category of communication and information, so this research effort attempts to compile its theoretical discussion.
