Biography/History:

Martín Oller Alonso, a scholar with a Ph.D. in journalism from Rey Juan Carlos University of Madrid, holds degrees in advanced studies in communication, advertising and public relations, journalism, education, and physical activity and sport sciences. His research spans several international projects including MEDIADELCOM, PHARM, World of Journalism Study (WJS), and studies in Journalistic Cultures and Pre-professional Journalistic Culture, focusing on a comparative analysis of communication, journalism, and journalists across several countries and world regions. His global research experience extends to Switzerland, England, France, Spain, Italy, Ecuador, Cuba, and the United States. Beginning in November 2023, he joined the University of Salamanca under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie program.

Summary:

In the EU, the prevailing academic and scientific thought models, as well as communication processes and journalism, are deeply Eurocentric. Martín Oller Alonso critiques these structural issues, focusing on post-communist Central and Eastern Europe's recent EU members. He argues for a decolonization of knowledge and a journalistic-other approach, blending local sensibilities and collective imaginations. Emphasizing deliberative communication, his study offers fresh media and communication theory perspectives, relevant to professionals and researchers in various fields, addressing the challenges and opportunities in the European Union amidst globalization and cultural integration.
