Description
This study examines the use of video technology as an alternative communication medium within a dialogic framework. It draws on Mikhail Bakhtin's theory of dialogism and employs a dialogic method that emphasizes diversity. The work takes as its focus the lives and work of a sample of significant independent video-makers on the indigenous Zapatista rebellion.
