Modelos de relación entre periodistas y políticos: La perspectiva de la negociación constante

Abstract

Numerous exchanges are established between politicians and journalists daily. These relationships are basic for the construction of the social reality, the articulation of the citizen’s priorities and the structuring of the public opinion in the current societies. Because of that, to describe and to understand the correspondences among these applications is essential. In this sense, this paper suggests five patterns to characterize and to explain the interactions that occur between journalists and politicians. Among them, attention is paid spice to the model of the constant negotiation, which constitutes a new theoretical contribution to the study of this important question.
