| Descripción: | Abstract: An analysis of the television programming flows in 10 South American countries shows that the television landscape has been reconfigured to include new subregional centres and new kinds of asymmetries, particularly in the Southern Cone. The volume of regional television has increased, having more than tripled in the last 20 years. This growth has occurred at the expense of U.S. programming, which still remains the dominant source of imports. In the larger, exporting countries domestic producers have elbowed out both regional and international players. In the smaller, importing countries domestic, regional, and global programs compete for the dominance of the television schedules. Considering the articulation of cultural audiovisual policies has been neglected, it is early to assess whether regional exchanges in television might contribute to the articulation of a regional cultural identity. Résumé: Une analyse de la circulation de programmes de télévision dans dix pays sud-américains montre que la carte de la télévision a été redessinée pour inclure de nouveaux centres sous-régionaux et de nouvelles asymétries, particulièrement dans le Cône sud. Le volume de la télévision régionale a augmenté, ayant triplé dans les vingt dernières années. Cet accroissement a eu lieu au détriment de la programmation américaine, quoique les États-Unis demeurent la plus grande source d'importations. Dans les plus grands pays exportateurs, la production domestique a déplacé la programmation régionale aussi bien que l'internationale. Dans les plus petits pays importateurs, les programmes étrangers, régionaux et domestiques se font concurrence pour la domination des horaires télévisuels. L'articulation de politiques audiovisuelles culturelles ayant été négligée, il est trop tôt pour savoir si les échanges régionaux télévisuels contribueront à l'articulation d'une identité culturelle régionale. |
