Sumario:The article proposes to reconstruct the cycle of rise and decline of Third Worldism in the studies of communication and culture in Latin America, from a perspective of intellectual history. To do this, it reconstructs the diplomatic trajectories of Juan Somavía and Fernando Reyes Matta (Chile), from Santiago de Chile to Mexico, focusing on the activities related to the international debate on information promoted by the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) at UNESCO. In tracing the cycle, the article focuses on the material threads of a transnational public sphere of communication, specifically on a segment articulated around the networks of Somavía and Reyes Matta, in which the ILET and the journal Comunicación y Cultura converged. Finally, to account for the closure of the cycle, it is demonstrated by way of example the problematization of the concept of the Third World that was formulated in the pages of the journal in the 1980s.
