Transición energética, extractivismo y cibermedios en Salta

Abstract

This work carries out a content analysis of the news on energy transition from the cybermedia of Salta, Argentina during the period 2022-2023. The objective lies in understanding how the various editorials of the main digital newspapers in the province address the information linked to this topic, crossed by lithium extractivism, the questioning of the economic royalties that remain in the province, the high demand for natural resources and environmental issues that are necessary to take into account for natural preservation. In short, it seeks to reflect on the socio-environmental imaginary in the reproduction of news about the transition. In this way, the work proposes a review of the importance of the media throughout its history, the temporal evolution of the term Energy Transition, contemplating the concepts that are closest to the events that occur today and understanding the importance of attending to this process.
