Contenido y representación de género en tres series de televisión chilenas de ficción (2008-2014)

Abstract

Chilean television is facing a new phenomenon: the production and broadcast of national fiction ser ies that have reached an important place in television programming and in the loyalty of the audience. Los 80, Los archivos del Cardenal and El reemplazante are representative productions, both by the audience reached and the social debate they provoked. In this research, we examine these series analyzing the narrative and the gender representation. The results allow us to relate the socio-political context of the country to the choice of fictional contents. These series begin with innovative and original intentions, but as they develop they become more simplify and stereotyped proposals.
