This article analyses the situation of communication research in Spain. First, a history of the development of communication research is presented. Then the authors describe and analyse the status of research at the beginning of the 21st century and present the opinion of researchers themselves concerning this situation. Subsequently, using the Delphi method, an analysis of the panorama of research in Spain is offered from the perspective of a group of Spanish researchers and lecturers in the field. Finally, the future prospects are discussed for communication theory and research in this European country. In general, this work aims to reflect on the state of communication theory as a social and humanistic science, in those democratic countries from the first world which incorporated the study of communication theory in their universities in the 1970s, based on an observation of the Spanish situation. Consequently, the issues analysed, the epistemological precept and the solutions proposed can be extrapolated to all those zones where the discipline is currently in a complete phase of consolidation, definition and maturity.

Our research utilizes a gender studies perspective in the context of television fiction research to investigate the models of the forms of masculinity and relationships that arise through the analysis of the Catalan TV series Porca Misèria/Pig Misery (Joan 2004). The methodology followed is to carry out a quantitative and qualitative textual film analysis of the male characters based on a scale, in order to evaluate the components of the love relationships. The conclusion that emerges provides four different modes of masculinity (dialogic, narcissistic, caring and Don Juan masculinity) and, accordingly, four different styles of heterosexual love relationships: ‘bonding love’; ‘inclusive love’; ‘caring love’ and ‘Donjuanesque love’. This constitutes a further step towards the future portrayal of men in TV series that manages to steer clear of clichéd representations and is more in tune with the new social realities of masculinity.

En los últimos años, España ha vivido la incorporación de la enseñanza universitaria en Comunicación al Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior (EEES). Este proceso ha generado un creciente interés por parte de la comunidad científica, y derivado en variadas investigaciones y trabajos académicos. Este artículo busca aproximarse a la mirada que nuestro campo académico ha construido sobre este proceso, a través de una revisión de los artículos publicados, hasta la fecha, en revistas españolas especializadas en Comunicación, que abordan alguna arista de la adaptación de los grados y postgrados de Periodismo, Comunicación Audiovisual, y Publicidad y Relaciones Públicas, al EEES.

The Handling of the Ayotzinapa Event by Two Mexican Newspapers Abstract. The purpose of this text is to analyze the editorial policy of two Mexican newspapers (La Jornada and El Universal) following the disappearance of 43 Mexican students, enrolled in the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers' College, during the night of September 26, 2014. The editorial columns dealing with this topic and published during the first six months after the event, are analyzed using Grize's argumentative proposal. The results highlight different approaches to the same event in categories such as topic selection, cultural presumptions, sources cited, and evaluative arguments. Taking these differences into account, the text concludes with a reflection on the functions of social journalism.

Despite the evidence concerning the substantial greenhouse gases emissions resulting from animal-based food production, climate policies and institutions around the world have barely made an issue of this link until very recently. To better understand this lack of attention, we focus on the discursive role of think tanks as prominent but under researched actors attempting to shape public policy. This contribution examines whether European think tanks have discussed animal-based diets regarding climate change policies and mitigation actions. We conduct a frame analysis study of 110 European think tanks, encoding all their available online output in English related to the link between global heating and animal-based food. We conclude that European think tanks have contributed to a manufacturing of ignorance regarding the impact our dietary choices have on the climate. Ideological reasons related to economic, anthropocentric and patriarchal worldviews explain this role.
