Abstract
The book is an investigation outcome developed from 2007 to 2009 by the research group Mídia, Cultura e Cidadania, linked to the Post-graduation program in Communication Sciences, at UNISINOS. It aims to map the media production practices of persons involved or not with Latin American immigrant associations, in addition to independent migration organizations. Such practices are related to information spaces made available by the internet, like blogs, websites, and social networks, as well as printed media like newspapers and magazines, which are considered by the author as "multi-territorial media spaces". Through the latter, the immigrants are able to establish connections with their net of sociabilities, and promote information on their communities, broadcasting knowledge that overcomes transnational barriers.
