Sumario:The paper proposes a debate on how Vilém Flusser and Marshall McLuhan discuss the transitions between different communicational ages. Through bibliographic analysis we conclude that they share the centrality of communication to understand society, as well as the non-neutrality of the media. We conclude that Flusser is closer to McLuhan than he admits, but that there are important differences in the way they understand the transitions between communicational ages.
