MARTINEZ GARZA, Francisco Javier; LOZANO RENDON, José Carlos e RODRIGUEZ ELIZONDO, Fernando Abiel. Scope of Violence and Culture of Legality in Mexico-The United States Boundaries. anagramas rumbos sentidos comun. [online]. 2012, vol.11, n.21, pp.21-40. ISSN 1692-2522.
This research analyzes and discusses the news scope on organized crime, violence, and the war of Mexican government against drug trafficking in eight newspapers of Mexico-Texas boundaries. The purpose was to identify the degree in which the scope promotes or impedes the principles of legality culture. Based on the diagnosis, the research suggests possible policies so that journalists, local and federal authorities, and professors of journalism and communication schools may reinforce legality culture through news. The research was based on the content analysis of two weeks of scope of eight daily newspapers in Mexico-Texas boundaries: Nuevo Laredo. El Mañana (Reynosa), Noreste (Matamoros), El Norte (at the Mexican northeast and the Laredo morning times (Laredo, Texas), McAllen monitor (Macallen), The Brownsville Herald (Brownsville) newspapers, and the Express-News (at the southeast of Texas). The analysis unit was the news about security, violence, drug-trafficking, corruption or fight against organized crime at both sides of the boundary. The research concludes with a discussion about implications of current scope as well as with specific recommendations of possible policies that the involved agents may take in order to promote, reinforce, and consolidate the legality culture in readers and help to establish bases for a long-term solution of crime and violence in the region.
