Abstract

The article proposes a plunge into the origins and recent concepts of the theory of social mediations, providing reflections on their applicability. It points to methodological weaknesses and redeems conceptual criticisms based on the departure of theory from the field of communications. It relates current research on mediations to the concept of mediatizaton, a trend followed by Brazilian and foreign researchers. Through literature review, we conclude that the theory is in permanent construction and is potentially able to respond to some communication questions.
