Project
During my stay at the Faber I will use to continue deepening in the writing of my doctoral thesis, which I have been doing for two years now. It deals with the phenomenon that I call neoperiodisms, that is, the new non-conventional journalistic practices as a way of combating both the industrial crisis of the media and the loss of credibility of journalism and of considering what journalism means today.
