Our submission (3336520), with Carlos Arcila Calderón; David Blanco-Herrero; Javier Amores; Patricia Sánchez-Holgado y Maximiliano Frías-Vázquez, “Evolution of Latin American journalists’ labor conditions: Evidence from the Worlds of Journalism Study open data,” has been selected for the 70th Annual ICA Conference, Open Communication, to be held in Gold Coast, Australia, 21-25 May 2020. This year we were able to accept only 44.27% of the papers and panels that were submitted. Congratulations on your work being among them!
This paper presents a longitudinal and comparative statistical analysis of the results of the first (2007-2011) and second wave (2012-2017) of surveys of the Worlds of Journalism Study on the profile and working conditions of journalists in Spain, Portugal, Chile, Mexico, and Brazil. Despite the disparities between countries, we observe that in general the role of women has been revalued, while the working conditions of media professionals have become more precarious, exposed to less professional stability and the need for multiple employment.
