Abstract
Vale la pena destacar que esta investigación es el resultado de una segunda etapa, que comenzó con una pesquisa previa realizada para la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura (Unesco), en el año 2001 y que este trabajo pretende examinar el estado de la investigación sobre medios y violencia en América Latina, en el periodo comprendido entre 1998 y 2005. El propósito del artículo es presentar una síntesis y valoración crítica de los estudios y publicaciones académicas que han abordado esta problemática durante los últimos siete años. Para tal efecto, se llevó a cabo una revisión bibliográfica que describió y analizó los enfoques teóricos, los métodos utilizados, los principales resultados, las conclusiones y los aportes de cada uno de los estudios, informes y publicaciones que fueron objeto del análisis.
