description |
The COVID-19 pandemic generated transformations in different areas of human life and socio-digital communication is central to its understanding. Users who post comments in the media and networks contribute elements to the social construction of reality. The objective was to interpret, through content analysis, representations of 1 303 users of four cross-border media from Baja California, Mexico, and California, usa, on Facebook, YouTube and web pages, about COVID-19 and the restrictions to cross the border. The closure of the border and COVID-19 constitute an emerging social phenomenon and previous research studies are scarce, which represented a limitation. In the end, the misinformation-fueled representations were found to project fear onto others; the comments reflect the majority use of unverified information, hatred and attribution of blame for contagion to others. The border was represented as an interstice of intersections and economic, cultural, political, environmental and health interdependence. |

La pandemia por COVID-19 generó transformaciones en distintos ámbitos de la vida humana, y la comunicación sociodigital es central para su comprensión. Los usuarios que publican comentarios en medios y redes aportan elementos para la construcción social de la realidad. El objetivo fue interpretar, mediante análisis de contenido, representaciones de 1 303 usuarios de cuatro medios transfronterizos de Baja California, México, y California, eua, en Facebook, YouTube y páginas web, sobre el COVID-19 y las restricciones para cruzar la frontera. El cierre de la frontera y el COVID-19 constituyen un fenómeno social emergente y son escasas las investigaciones previas, lo cual representó una limitación. Al final se encontró que las representaciones alimentadas por desinformación proyectaron miedo a los otros; los comentarios reflejan uso mayoritario de información no verificada, odio y atribución de culpa por contagio a los otros. La frontera fue representada como intersticio de entrecruzamientos e interdependencia económica, cultural, política, ambiental y sanitaria. 2021-01-25 2021-06-03T03:39:47Z 2021-06-03T03:39:47Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909 10.21670/ref.2101064 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6956 spa eng https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909/1879 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909/1913 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909/1914 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909/1915 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909/1916 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909/1880 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909/1881 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/909/1882 Derechos de autor 2021 Estudios Fronterizos https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/ application/pdf text/xml application/pdf text/html text/html text/html application/epub+zip text/xml Baja California-California border. 2020 Frontera Baja California-California. 2020 Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 22 (2021) Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 22 (2021) 2395-9134 0187-6961 |
