Producto editorial sobre las prácticas culturales del cantón Quijos

Abstract

The thesis hereby is called "Editorial product on the cultural practices of the Quijos Canton" which demonstrate the social construction and history of this place. The population of Quijos has developed a process of acculturation over the years due to its proximity to the city of Quito, capital of Ecuador; so the internal displacement has led to new social structures from the communicational exchanges. The research works from the qualitative method, which through field observation allows to land categories of analysis that show to what extent the cultural and traditional processes have merged with other perspectives, thus modifying the identity of the population of Quito. Therefore, this type of research allows society to know its cultural and identity practices and see how these have been modified. This tour on the cultural practices of the Quijos Valley is visualized in a digital magazine, which with contributions such as photography together with journalism allow a symbolic contribution to the social imaginary of the Ecuadorian society with respect to the understanding of the identity of the Canton Quijos, where the identity, architecture, historical characters and gastronomy of the sector will be visualized.
