      This book has had a peculiar trajectory. It began as a shared intellectual project, one that developed during a seven-year period, drawing on the empirical research of a group of scholars from 11 Latin American countries who studied the region’s transformation during the first decades of the twenty-first century. But each of us also traveled along separate paths through various countries, gathering information and reflecting on our findings, together with a broad range of colleagues and friends who helped us to understand the complex context that is Latin America. For this reason, we wish to thank everyone who worked on the book Navegar contra el viento: América Latina en la era de la información [Sailing against the Wind: Latin America in the Information Age], edited by Fernando Calderón. For joining us on this thrilling adventure, thanks to: Martin Puchet, Isadora Chacón, Diego Escobar, Isabel Licha, Haydee Ochoa, Miguel Ángel Contreras, Rodrigo Márquez, Fernando Mayorga, Solange Novelle, Juan Pablo Deluca, Ignacio Cretini, Ana Rivoir, Santiago Escuder, Gonzalo Vásquez, Deborah Pragier, and Juan Wahren. Special thanks to the Universidad Nacional de San Martín (UNSAM) in Argentina for supporting this project.

      We have made numerous friends and met many colleagues during the last few years. Many thanks to them as well. For their intellectual contributions to the analyses offered in this book, we thank Fernando Henrique Cardoso, Francisco Delich, Ernesto Ottone, Isidora Chacón, Alejandra Moreno Toscano, Alicia Ziccardi, Manuel Perló, Carmen Rodríguez Armesta, Helena Useche, Tarso Genro, and Marcelo Branco.

      In addition, we would like to highlight the contributions made by all of our friends and collaborators in the Programa de Innovación Desarrollo y Multiculturalismo at the UNSAM in Buenos Aires.

      Several other academic institutions provided organizational and/or financial support for the research on which this book is based, among them: the UNSAM in Argentina, the Annenberg School of Communication at the University of Southern California, and the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya. We would like to extend our sincerest thanks to these institutions. The book’s final composition benefitted from opportunities to discuss and present our analyses in several academic contexts, in particular at the UNSAM, the Center for Latin American Studies at the University of Cambridge, and the Center for Latin American
