Summary/Abstract: Communication and media studies are the sum of related studies and disciplines that tackle various aspects of human communication. The dynamic of changes in the fields of communication and media studies makes it necessary to point to the object of study which will allow for a more or less full analysis of the transformations within media communication. The region of periodical media communication is such an object of study since, contemporarily, this type of communication becomes an alternative to the types of communication that generate post-truth content and post-facts. From the perspective of communication (and not communicating), the theoretical conception of periodical media communication and its regions makes it possible to produce knowledge on the processes of changes in communication mediated in spatial arrangement. The theory outlined in this article makes it possible to analyse media spaces of increasing density in territorial arrangements, communities shaped by means of traditional and new media, and processes of disintegration of communities or collectivities.
