Tolerancia y cine: el cine venezolano como texto de cultura

Abstract

THIS ARTICLE UNDERSTANDS TOLERANCE AS OPENNESS TO INDIVIDUALS OR GROUPS WITH DIFFERENT CHARACTERISTICS FROM ONE'S OWN. TOLERANCE, AS A VARIABLE CAPABLE OF AFFECTING THE DYNAMICS OF SOCIAL RELATIONS, HAS GAINED DISCURSIVE FORCE IN RELATION TO PHENOMENA SUCH AS MULTICULTURALISM AND GLOBALIZATION. ON THE BASIS OF THE SEMIOTICS OF CULTURE -LOTMAN AND THE TARTU SCHOOL- THIS RESEARCH PROPOSES A METHODOLOGICAL INSTRUMENT FOR OPERATIONALIZING TOLERANCE AS A SOCIOLOGICAL OBJECT. UNDERSTOOD AS A CONTENT PRESENT IN THE SIGNS OF ARTISTIC AND CULTURAL PRODUCTION SUCH AS THE CINEMA, TOLERANCE ENABLES TO OUTLINE ASPECTS OF VENEZUELAN CULTURAL IDENTITY.
