Latin American representations and stereotypes in Spain prime time series (2014-2017)

Abstract:

The present article aims to analyze the representations and projected stereotypes of Latin American characters in Spanish fiction prime-time series (2014-2017). The study will be based on a comparison of the projected image of the Latin American countries in the three major Spanish print media and fictional elements of the actors of the series. Secondly, we will analyze the projected personality traits, based on the cognitive-behavioral theory and non-participant observation, allowing us to remove their psychological profiles. Among the main results and conclusions, it should be noted that the majority of the emerging codes are highly negative connotations, exalting the anti-stereotyping of the Latin American community in Spain.
