Abstract
ANTEZANA, Lorena; CABALIN, Cristian and ANDRADA, Pablo. Citizenship and social representations in Chilean telenovelas. A context for the development of youth audiences. Comun. soc [online]. 2022, vol.19, e8249. Epub Mar 24, 2023. ISSN 0188-252X. https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v2022.8249.
In this article, we analyze the social representations produced by the discourses of three current Chilean telenovelas and their contribution to the citizenship education of young people. From a qualitative and narratological perspective, the analyzed productions allow these audiences to self-identify with characters, problematize citizen issues based on the fictitious situations presented by these stories, use explanatory categories to solve the dilemma at hand, and critically analyze the stories, which are fundamental components of citizen education.
Keywords : Telenovela; citizenship; youth; audience; representations.
