          Abstract

          Resumen: Este artículo busca describir la configuración y la evolución económica de los grupos uruguayos de televisión comercial desde su nacimiento en 1956 hasta el año 2022. Desde una perspectiva de la economía política de la comunicación, la construcción de bases de datos cuantitativas y un análisis desde la economía industrial, se reconstruye el nacimiento, desarrollo y crisis de estos grupos y su relación con el poder político. El ingreso de los grupos multinacionales de televisión para abonados al mercado uruguayo, así como la convergencia en el sector audiovisual, expresadas más recientemente en el desarrollo de las plataformas de VOD en streaming, impactaron negativamente en los ingresos de los grupos nacionales de comunicación. Esto generó su declive y posterior crisis económica. Se contrastó esta situación con el impacto sufrido por otros grupos de la región con mayor solvencia económica. Finalmente, se analizó la concesión de licencias que obtuvieron los grupos uruguayos en 2022, lo que les permitirá vender televisión y datos fijos de forma simultánea. Si bien este hecho, también convergente, puede fortalecer a los grupos nacionales, todavía no se puede predecir el impacto futuro de esta medida.

          Abstract: The aim of this article is to describe the configuration and economic evolution ofUruguayan commercial television groups from their birth in 1956 until 2022. From a political economy of communication perspective, the construction of quantitative databases, and an analysis from the industrial economy, we reconstruct these groups’ birth, development, and crisis, as well as their relationship with political power. The advent of multinational pay television groups into the Uruguayan market, as well as convergence in the audiovisual sector, most recently expressed in the development of streaming VOD platforms, had a negative impact on the revenues of national media groups, leading to their decline and subsequent economic crisis. This situation was contrasted with the impact suffered by other groups in the region with greater economic solvency. Finally, we analyzed the concession of licenses obtained by the Uruguayan groups in 2022, which will allow them to sell television and fixed data simultaneously. Although this measure, also convergent, may strengthen the national groups, it is not yet possible to predict its future impact.

          Resumo: O objetivo deste artigo é descrever a configuração e evolução econômica dos grupos uruguaios de televisão comercial desde o seu nascimento em 1956 até ao ano 2022. A partir da perspectiva da Economia Política da Comunicação, da construção de bases de dados quantitativas e de uma análise da economia industrial, é reconstruído o nascimento, desenvolvimento e crise destes grupos e a sua relação com o poder político. A entrada de grupos multinacionais de televisão para assinantes no mercado uruguaio, bem como a convergência no sector audiovisual, expressadas mais recentemente no desenvolvimento de plataformas VOD de streaming, tiveram um impacto negativo nos rendimentos dos grupos nacionais de comunicação, o que levou ao seu declínio e subsequente crise econômica. Esta situação será contrastada com o impacto sofrido por outros grupos da região com maior solvência econômica. Finalmente, será analisada a concessão de licenças obtidas pelos grupos uruguaios em 2022, o que lhes permitirão vender dados fixos e televisivos de forma simultânea. Embora este fato, que também é convergente, possa reforçar os grupos nacionais, o impacto futuro desta medida ainda não pode ser previsto.

          The Theory of Industrial Organization

          The Theory of Industrial Organization is the first primary text to treat the new industrial organization at the advanced-undergraduate and graduate level. Rigorously analytical and filled with exercises coded to indicate level of difficulty, it provides a unified and modern treatment of the field with accessible models that are simplified to highlight robust economic ideas while working at an intuitive level. To aid students at different levels, each chapter is divided into a main text and supplementary section containing more advanced material. Each chapter opens with elementary models and builds on this base to incorporate current research in a coherent synthesis. Tirole begins with a background discussion of the theory of the firm. In Part I he develops the modern theory of monopoly, addressing single product and multi product pricing, static and intertemporal price discrimination, quality choice, reputation, and vertical restraints. In Part II, Tirole takes up strategic interaction between firms, starting with a novel treatment of the Bertrand-Cournot interdependent pricing problem. He studies how capacity constraints, repeated interaction, product positioning, advertising, and asymmetric information affect competition or tacit collusion. He then develops topics having to do with long term competition, including barriers to entry, contestability, exit, and research and development. He concludes with a "game theory user's manual" and a section of review exercises. Important Notice: The digital edition of this book is missing some of the images found in the physical edition.
