FONSECA, José Nuno Lacerda. Regulação política dos meios de comunicação social. Sociologia, Problemas e Práticas [online]. 2001, n.35, pp.49-77. ISSN 0873-6529.

Via an analysis of various indications of the existence of anti-social effects of the activities of the mass media, this text reflects on consumer information rights, as well as on related information duties. Working on the basis of a general principle of consumer information, several hypotheses are presented for schemes to regulate the mass media. The article goes on to problematise them and to try to reflect on their potential. The synergies between proposals for an evolution of the political system and new processes for regulation of mass media are analysed as elements that are essential if new regulatory processes are to emerge.

Palavras-chave : Mass media; political regulation; participation; information; culture; rights; duties.
