description Mexican writer Carlos Monsiváis is one of the most highly recognized intellectuals today for his work as the chronicler of Mexico City, essayist, analyst of the mass media, critic of culture and society in Latin America and, above all, in Mexico. This article approaches the journalisticliterary work of his collections of chronicles from the sixties to the nineties, within which the concepts of mass, mass media and popular culture are central. These are analyzed throughout the article taking into account his critical position, especially with respect to the understanding of mass. At the same time, the particular hybrid style of his writing is analyzed, as well as the importance of paradox as a resource in his critical work as regards power relations and the crossing of the boundaries of dichotomies.

Este artículo aborda el trabajo periodístico-literario de sus libros de crónicas desde los años setenta hasta los noventa, dentro de lo cual los conceptos de masa, medios masivos, cultura popular son centrales. Estos son atendidos a lo largo del artículo tomando en consideración su postura crítica, sobre todo respecto a la noción de masa. Igualmente se atiende al particular estilo híbrido de su escritura, así como a la importancia que tiene la paradoja como recurso en su labor crítica respecto a las relaciones de poder y al traspaso de fronteras de dicotomías.Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales, Sede Ecuador2010-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículo evaluado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://iconos.flacsoandes.edu.ec/index.php/iconos/article/view/40010.17141/iconos.36.2010.400Íconos - Revista de Ciencias Sociales; Núm. 36 (2010): Dossier: Naturaleza y crisis del capitalismo; 147-156Íconos - Revista de Ciencias Sociales; n. 36 (2010): Dossier: Naturaleza y crisis del capitalismo; 147-156Íconos.
