This study compares media use in three Mesoamerican rebellions---the Nicaraguan revolution, the Salvadoran civil war and the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas, Mexico---waged under similar conditions over a twenty-year period. In all three cases, the rebels utilized a variety of media, but one of those became the official or dominant medium. Each rebel group chose a notably different medium as the primary focus of its communication strategy. The purpose of this study is to understand how each rebel group used its respective primary communication medium and the possibilities and limitations that the choice offered as well as the demands it made.

520 $a Using mainly historical methods, this study responds to separate calls for further work in the two areas of research that this dissertation brings together: revolutionary media and Mark Poster's concept of the mode of information. In doing so, it considers the content of the media message, the technology that each rebel group chose, and the way both producers and audience used the technology and the content. It places the technology within the social and cultural situation in which it was used to understand the mode of information as a connection between producers and audience.
