Resumen

ROCHA, Simone Maria. Narco-Telenovelas and an Account of the Nation: Approaches to Colombian Culture and Politics through a Study of the Reception of Escobar, el Patrón del Mal by Brazilian Audiences. Palabra Clave [online]. 2018, vol.21, n.1, pp.58-85. ISSN 0122-8285.  https://doi.org/10.5294/pacla.2018.21.1.4.

This paper starts from the idea of the cultural relevance of television, according to which its narratives are central to knowing the history, politics, the stories about the nation and a recent memory of our Latin American countries. Here, I present the results of a research that illustrates, through development groups, how Brazilian viewers interpret Colombian narco-telenovela Escobar, el Patrón del Mal, with the aim of understanding how recent history was built, as well as the political and cultural conflicts of that society from a television product. My conclusion is that the meanings attributed by the participants of the groups revealed important aspects of this role of television in our societies. The narco-telenovela faced them with the intricacies of a problem that is deeply embedded in Colombian culture and politics; it also helped them to understand the phenomena and events of our own reality from a critical standpoint and showed them that our Latin American societies develop, for better or worse, their own strategies of entry into modernity.

Palabras clave : Colombia; political culture; narco-telenovela; Pablo Escobar; discussion group.
