During the last decade, telecommunications and television have been slowly changing in Mexico. Historically, a few companies have monopolized both industries. Televisa controlled the radio and television industries and Grupo Carso the telecommunication sector. These companies, controlled by Emilio Azcarraga Jean and Carlos Slim, respectively, gain a lot of political and economic control in Mexico during the last decades. Throughout many years, these capitalists lived in peace. Nevertheless, changes in the economic environment, such as the financial globalization and the digital convergence, confronted these companies. This confrontation has been named as the Telecommunications\u2019 War. This war ended\u2014apparently\u2014with the elaboration of a new federal law that regulates the sector.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Within the last years I have been analyzing these political and economic conjunctures. In recent days was published an article where I analyze the Telecommunication\u2019s War. The article is named \u201cThe Struggle for Telecommunications in Mexico II: Towards the Integration to a Post-Industrial World\u201d and was published in the journal An\u00e1lisis Plural<\/a>.<\/p>\n
