Abstract

This study aims to analyze the issue in television postmodernity as a mediator of meaning from a complex and interdisciplinary approach. This article is a counterpoint to the book “The man in the age of television,” by Jean-Jacques Wunenburger. We try to place the television beyond criticism, seeking a sense of communication in social life and in the fields of symbolic field. The critical reference has been diluted in postmodernity, which avoid any fbinary and totalizing explanations. The path of complexity is more effectively to talk about the relationship of the Self and the Other or between the self and the object or, also, between I and the world.
