Abstract

Development and social communication theories began to intersect in the second half of the 20th century, then shaping the field of Communication for Development. The two main perspectives of both disciplines up to the 1980s –the theories of modernization and the theories of dependence– also led the dispute on the regulation of the flow of information in international organizations. More recently, the Millennium Goals and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development took up the instrumental vision of communication consolidated in the 1990s, though open to the new approach of Communication for Social Change. This work covers the milestones of conformation of the field, and proposes some reading guidelines for its current situation.
