Venezuela bajo la Revolución Bolivariana: Medios de Comunicación y Libertad de Expresión (Venezuela under the Bolivarian Revolution: Media and Freedom of Expression)

«Cañizález has devoted himself to scrutinizing some of the most socially relevant aspects of communication phenomena, in particular the complex relationships between communication and power. His work is nourished by multiple conceptual and geographical references, but the emphasis of his attention and research has been Venezuela and, as a necessary extension, other Andean countries. The essays that make up this book are about these focuses. From the foreword by Eduardo Ulibarri
