Item type:Ítem, El Retorno de George Orwell. La Videovigilancia y el control en el mundo contemporáneo. Caso de estudio la película: The Truman Show(Universidad Tècnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Comunicaciòn, 2024-08) ;Mejía Clavijo, Julio CesarMartínez Bonilla, Carlos AlbertoIn contemporary society, video surveillance has emerged as a crucial topic within studies on social control and subjectivity; however, in the Ecuadorian context, this phenomenon has not been sufficiently explored. Since the premiere of the film “The Truman Show” in 1998, directed by Peter Weir, which shows the life of Truman Burbank, a man who ignores being the protagonist of a reality show in which his life is monitored relentlessly, A new field of debate opens about constant surveillance and its influence on the construction of identity. This research will focus on the politicization of video surveillance, approaching it from a critical perspective to discuss how constant control manifests itself in modern societies and its implications on individual freedom. The methodological approach of this thesis is divided into two parts: the first part will use a comparative matrix that integrates various theoretical perspectives on surveillance and its impact on subjectivity, contrasting the points of view of different authors to articulate a robust theoretical framework that critiques and explore video surveillance in contemporary societies. In this way, it is hoped that the research will not only provide a deeper understanding of how video surveillance is represented in “The Truman Show”, but also contribute to the debate about the ethical and social implications of living under constant observation. The second part of the study consists of an analysis of the discourse on surveillance in “The Truman Show” to identify and examine the elements that construct the narrative of control and monitoring in the film. Through an analysis matrix, the surveillance mechanisms and how they affect the perception and behavior of the protagonist will be detailed, establishing parallels with contemporary practices of digital surveillance. This analysis will allow us to better understand how cinema can represent and question surveillance as a social and cultural phenomenon. This exploration will allow new researchers to focus on video surveillance as a complex and relevant topic within Communication and Social Sciences studies
