Abstract
A pesar de que el reporterismo de guerra ha sido tradicionalmente una ocupación masculina (no job for women), en la actualidad en España hay varias mujeres trabajando en la cobertura de crisis violentas y conflictos armados. Sin embargo, las mujeres que se han insertado en dicha ocupación son menos conocidas que sus compañeros hombres y resultan prácticamente invisibles para la sociedad. En este artículo, se analizan las representaciones sociales sobre las reporteras de guerra localizables en documentos audiovisuales exhibidos en medios de comunicación social españoles en el periodo 2010-2016. A partir de un análisis de tipo sociohermenéutico, se ha creado un mapa de arquetipos, que condensan los discursos sobre el reporterismo de guerra ejercido por mujeres. Además, tras la conducción de nueve entrevistas cualitativas con mujeres reporteras con un prolongada trayectoria, la autora reflexiona sobre la relación existente entre las trayectorias profesionales y la imagen pública de la ocupación.
Despite war journalism has traditionally been a male occupation (no job for women), there are dozens of women who are currently working in the coverage of violent crises and armed conflicts in the Spanish mediascape. However, women in this occupation remain less reputed than their peers and are practically invisible to the Spanish society. In this article, I analyze the social representations of women war reporters that can be found in audiovisual documents exhibited in Spanish social media in the period 2010-2016. Using socio-hermeneutic analysis, I propose a map of archetypes which condense the discourses about women in war journalism. In addition, and following the conduction of nine qualitative interviews with women reporters, the author reflects on the relationship between professional trajectories and the public image of the occupation.
