Abstract
This article reviews the intellectual journey that led me to study the development of television in Brazil. It discusses how I came to study how media were developing in countries of the global South as part of a Ph.D. in International Relations. It led me to get particularly interested in Brazil, particularly when I discovered that the US State Department was willing to train me in Portuguese and send me there for three years. It discusses the great intellectual support I received for my research on Brazilian television, TV Globo and cultural dependency, from Prof. José Marques de Melo and others at ECA/USP, in which others like Carlos Eduardo Lins da Silva and Ana Maria Fadul were beginning to look at some of the same issues. It goes on to discuss how interesting and helpful the INTERCOM and ALAIC network of researchers was in learning about the great upswell in Brazilian and Latin American research that was taking place.
这篇文章回顾了我研究巴西电视发展的知识之旅。它讨论了我是如何作为国际关系博士的一部分来研究媒体在全球南方国家的发展的。这让我对巴西特别感兴趣,尤其是当我发现美国国务院愿意用葡萄牙语培训我,并将我送到那里三年时。它讨论了我在巴西电视、环球电视台和文化依赖方面的研究所得到的巨大智力支持,这些支持来自非洲经委会/美国药典的JoséMarques de Melo教授和其他人,其中Carlos Eduardo Lins da Silva和Ana Maria Fadul等其他人开始关注一些相同的问题。它接着讨论了INTERCOM和ALAIC研究人员网络在了解巴西和拉丁美洲研究的巨大进展方面是多么有趣和有帮助。
