Description
Summary:This article presents key findings from the 2022 National Survey on Cultural Consumption (ENCC) conducted in Argentina. It traces the background of studies on cultural consumption in Latin America, then describes the survey's methodological design and the dimensions it covers, along with the challenges of conducting this assessment shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic. The focus is on results related to television and streaming platform consumption, social media use, and news reading habits. The ENCC data reveal that television remains relevant, although streaming services and social networks have expanded their audiences. Newscasts continue to play an important role in information consumption, though the use of social media as a news source is on the rise. One noteworthy trend is the simultaneous and integrated nature of different practices, such as using social media to comment on what is being watched on television or streaming platforms. The article concludes by highlighting the importance of ENCC data for research and the development of public policies aimed at improving access and citizen participation.
