The use of the term social networks has spread in a majority way in the Spanish-speaking countries, not only in an academic and scientific way, but also in the whole society, understanding a commonly accepted meaning to refer to certain online tools such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or LinkedIn among others. Thus, we must ask ourselves if this terminological conception and the conceptual form are well used and if there is a better alternative, to clarify such an important field of study in the social sciences. The article compiles definitions and uses of the term, placing special emphasis on the most primitive definitions of social networks that we can find in the Anglo-Saxon literature. Based on social
scientific studies that were published in English and more recently in Spanish, we can explain the detailed conceptualization and differentiation of social networks and social media, emphasizing the way of improvement. A distinction is made between types of social networks and the possibilities offered by distinguishing between social networks and social media for research methodology in social sciences in Spanish.

Adorno's work, in particular the texts dealing with the relationship between music and social behaviors or structures, has been the target of criticism, especially in the second half of the 20th century, being considered by many to be generalist, dogmatic or even elitist. This work proposes the analysis of musical technologies not only as a set of compositional techniques, as Adorno does, but, in fact, as material conditions for the realization of a certain type of sound/music. The colonialist character of these technologies is also analyzed. Based on a review of some key concepts in Adornian theory, a dialogue is sought with more contemporary authors from the sociology of music.

The document presents the results of a comparative legal analysis dedicated to the constitutions of the European states regarding the identification of norms that guarantee the freedom of the social media in them. Methodologically the study was built on the basis of a dialectical approach to the dissemination of legal phenomena and processes using general scientific methods (systemic, logical, analysis and synthesis) and particular. By way of conclusion, all the evidence shows that, in the most common version, the constitutional regulation of guarantees is concise and includes only the recognition or guarantee of the freedom of the media together with the prohibition of censorship. In more detailed versions, prohibitive or regulatory rules may indicate specific types of liability, administrative procedures, etc. For federal states, it is typical to pay special attention to press matters within the scope of jurisdiction issues.

This article focuses on the ways of generation of media discourse about management and labor organizations. This discourse plays a central role in the social construction of organizational criteria and practices as well as the definition of work health indicators for all the implicated social groups in the labor phenomenon. His common justification is the intention of educating and spreading mass knowledge. Both are conducting to produce a high homogenous view about how to do with persons in organizations. Our analysis uncovers a fundamental interpretative repertory: systemic conceptualization of organizations and the implications for the persons at work subjectivity in a time defined for a erased labor class. This article focuses on the ways in which work and management are discursively represented in the media. Media discourse plays an important part in the social construction, by various interested parties, of well-being at work. The basic rationale of the discourse is, it claims, educational. That leads, we argue, to a very undifferentiated understanding of how personnel should be managed. We identify a pervasive interpretative repertoire: the systematic view of organizations, and its implications for the subjectivity of employees, in an era defined by the diminishing certainty of working class identity in contemporary social structure.

Information security is vital for national security, especiallyduring martial law. The influential role of the media in the socio-political landscape of Ukraine underscores the need to studyits impact on the system of public management of informationsecurity. This research aims to identify the extent and directionsof such impact, using statistical analysis and comparative lawmethodology. The findings reveal information security challengesrelated to social media in Ukraine, such as distorted information,manipulation, propaganda, imperfect regulation and subordination ofmedia to the interests of their owners. International experiences suggestaddressing these problems by promoting digital literacy, facilitating faircompetition and fostering relations between the state, media and citizens.By way of conclusion, the significant influence of the media on publicopinion and political processes is confirmed, with both positive (coverageof important information) and negative (misinformation, manipulation)aspects in the system of public management of information security.

The objective of the research was to analyze the Latin American experience in constitutional guarantees regarding freedom of expression in the media. The document summarizes the results of a comparative legal study dedicated to the texts included in the constitutions of the Latin American states regarding the identification of norms that guarantee the freedom of the media in them. It has been established that most of the declared constitutions contain traditional guarantees of media freedom expressed in the legalization of this substantive freedom, its implementation without censorship and restrictions under the threat of responsibility for its abuse. Methodologically, the study was built on the basis of a dialectical approach for the dissemination of legal phenomena and processes using general scientific methods (systemic, logical, analysis and synthesis) and particular. In conclusion, it is evident that it is typical that the constitutions of Latin American states combine freedom of thought, expression and media in a single provision. In all other aspects, the list of identified guarantees is variable and in many countries they have no impact on the concrete reality.

From a documentary perspective the article addresses issues such as the collapse of the Soviet Union, separatism in the USSR and the existence of similar destructive processes in modern Russia. Special attention is paid to the role of the media in the collapse of the USSR. The goal was to find out whether the collapse of the Soviet Union and the rise of New Russia were inevitable. Consequently, the additional objectives of the article are to identify the main reasons for the collapse of the USSR, to draw an analogy with the situation in modern Russia, to analyze propaganda techniques by examining the Moscow News newspaper, and to study and generalize the main problems of inter-ethnic dialogue in the Soviet and post-Soviet space. The relevance of the topic is justified by the lack of a unified view in the community of experts on the causes and consequences of the collapse of the USSR, as well as by the lack of a unified assessment of the period of Perestroika and the inevitability of the transition from socialism to capitalism in Russia. It is concluded that in the geopolitical phenomenon of the collapse of the USSR occupies a special role the national and international media dimension.

The article introduces Anne Marion MacLean into the United States' scientific sociology at its very origins (1892), when the Department of Sociology of the Chicago University was created. It also puts MacLean in a network called 'Women's School of Chicago', & the forgotten contributions of these social sciences' pioneers, submitted to the American Journal of Sociology, are analyzed. Two MacLean's key contributions are highlighted: the correspondence courses in teaching sociology & her research by means of participant observation in workplaces focusing on women's work.

In this research, we set out to analyze, on the one hand, the promises of pluralism of four television channels in the months before the referendum of October 25th, 2020, in Chile, and on the other hand, how YouTube and Twitter audiences reacted to them. Through a mixed method of content analysis and qualitative analysis, we found that pluralism was not one of the most mentioned aspects by the public in these social media. When there were allusions to it, the assessment was negative. This article seeks to contribute to studies on pluralism not only in Chile but also at a more general level, focusing on a global phenomenon, such as the possibilities of participation that social media provide to audiences who consume journalistic content.

El proceso de traslape institucional que se dio entre los tradicionales poderes constitucionales formales y el funcionamiento de las tecnologías electrónicas de difusión masiva, que gradualmente alcanzaron posiciones fácticas desde lamitad del siglo XX y principios del siglo XXI, ocasionó que el Estado nacional sufriera nuevas modificaciones sustanciales que cambiaron su naturaleza y sus funciones rectoras básicas. Así, la acción del poder mediático a lo largo de varias décadas, dio origen a un novedoso fenómeno de naturaleza mixturada que generó un nuevo tipo de "Estado hibrido". La correspondiente nueva República histórica, de naturaleza altamente mediático-política, modificó la estructura y el escenario del convencional Estado-nación contemporáneo en México. La evolución de dicha realidad histórica no ha concluido, sino que continúa desarrollándose con enorme dinamismo y fuerza hacia nuevas etapas de transformación del Estado, del espacio público y de la sociedad en su conjunto, sin saber hasta dónde llegará su devenir, pues los poderes fácticos mediáticos se fortalecen crecientemente en el país al tiempo que los poderes públicos se debilitan paulatinamente. Por ello, con mayor razón la sociedad debe sostener un permanente análisis crítico que describa objetivamente las nuevas características que adquiere este fenómeno estratégico, las fases de transformación a las que asciende y las alternativas de retorno que existen para rescatar el proyecto de un crecimiento nacional.

El campo académico de la comunicación sigue enfrentando una serie de retos en lo relativo a su desarrollo disciplinar. Desde una perspectiva epistemológica, la construcción de su objeto de estudio ha presentado algunos pendientes conceptuales, que permitirían plantear una reflexión más sólida en cuanto a la consideración de nuevas tecnologías que posibilitan actos comunicativos, dentro del conjunto de los media. El presente artículo tiene el objetivo de brindar elementos que contribuyen al fortalecimiento de esta categoría, ante la consolidación de Internet como innovación que ofrece posibilidades de interacción comunicativa nunca antes presentes en medio alguno, tanto por la compresión espacio-temporal que supone, como por las estructuras rizomáticas a través de las cuales fluye la información. Se argumentará que Internet es un medio de comunicación con posibilidades expresivas y de difusión, en buena medida, a partir de los usos sociales que se hacen del sustento hipertextual que posibilita la operación de uno de sus entornos más frecuentemente utilizados con intenciones comunicativas: la World Wide Web.

The objective of the study was to determine the forms of media involvement in justice for crimes against the civilian population. The research was conducted using the methods of systems approach, descriptive analysis, forecasting, systematic sampling and comparative method. The mass media as an institution of civil society have ample opportunities for active participation in justice, in particular, in the detection and documentation of crimes, social support to victims, coordination of efforts of governmental and non-governmental entities. The media is an active subject in justice for crimes against the civilian population. However, their functions are not of a legal nature; they are aimed at establishing the completeness and objectivity of the facts. It is concluded that the prospects for the development of media activities envisage the model, which focuses on the detection and documentation of crimes, in particular through the latest technologies; provision of social support and opportunities for victims to express their position while facilitating the coordination of efforts between governmental and non-governmental entities interested in justice for crimes against civilians.
