Abstract
This article presents a critical review of organizational communication scholarship in Latin America to explore its distinctive traits. Combining J. Marques de Melo’s (1999) features of Latin American communication studies with Anglo-American frameworks of organizational communication, it offers a systematic mapping of Latin American organizational communication scholarship by focussing on the major trends of the academic production in peer-reviewed journals from 2010 to 2014. The results show that there are subtle but consistent signs of a Latin American approach to organizational communication regarding theoretical miscegenation and the ethics and political commitment of the researcher. This is mainly manifested in the practical orientation of research and the growing interest in documenting and intervening in local organizational realities. Este artículo presenta una revisión crítica de la producción académica referida a la comunicación organizacional en América Latina, a fin de explorar sus características distintivas. A partir de la combinación de la caracterización de los estudios comunicacionales latinoamericanos propuesta por Marques de Melo (1999) y los encuadres angloamericanos de la comunicación organizacional, el artículo propone un mapeo sistemático de la producción académica latinoamericana sobre comunicación organizacional, haciendo eje en las principales tendencias manifestadas en revistas académicas arbitradas por pares de 2010 a 2014. Los resultados muestran signos sutiles pero consistentes de la existencia de un enfoque latinoamericano, vinculados con la miscegenación teórica por un lado, y con el compromiso ético y político con la investigación por el otro. Dicho compromiso se expresa principalmente en la orientación práctica de la investigación y el interés creciente por documentar, e intervenir en, las realidades organizacionales locales. Este artigo apresenta uma revisão crítica da pesquisa em comunicação organizacional na América Latina com o objetivo de explorar suas características distintivas. Combinando os aspectos dos estudos de comunicação identificados por Marques de Melo (1999) com abordagens anglo-americanas da comunicação organizacional o artigo apresenta um panorama sistemático da pesquisa latino-americana na área com foco nas tendências principais da produção publicada em revistas científicas entre 2010 e 2014. Os resultados mostram que há sinais sutis mas consistentes de uma abordagem latino-americana da comunicação organizacional no que diz respeito à miscigenação teórica e à ética e comprometimento político de pesquisadoras e pesquisadores. Tais características se manifestam principalmente na orientação prática da pesquisa e no interesse crescente pela documentação e intervenção em realidades organizacionais locais.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
