the law is focused on avoiding damage to historical heritage, decreasing the visual contamination in natural areas, and not allowing that it affects visibility and panoramic views.

The fifth category corresponds to the digital rights and to translate transactional activities to the informatics nets; it conforms to the electronic, digital, or open government terms. There are 12 laws in this category (8.33%), which makes it the smallest of all. It reveals the necessity to incorporate this regulation subject in debates and the Public regional agendas. In an isolated form, social fights have appeared and conquered some law spaces. Aguascalientes is an example of this, where groups of gender equality achieve to typify cyberbullying as a crime. However, there is not a specific law yet. Related to this point, the Module of Cyberbullying (MOCIBA) of the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI, 2019b) indicates that 23.9% of the population older than 12 years old that used the Internet in 2019 was a victim of cyberbullying. There are still relevant gaps in the subnational space, recognizing and regulating digital rights; also, in protecting society from risk.

Data presented until now, still descriptive, is a contribution to line a subject of study that has been absent. It is a view of the set of regional legislation on social communication within the national State. This view contributes a broader comprehension of the legal- political sphere configuration in the fulfilment of rights and freedoms of communication and information. It covers the context of the transition of the democracy, emphasizing on the regional. The next part of this work will present the discussions and conclusions, trying to construct a bridge of data and theory to discuss the utility and the possibilities that are open under this type of propose of research.

5. Discussion

The results of the presented analysis allow qualifying some assumptions of the beginning, refining them, and setting them on a discussion to continue problematizing this object of knowledge. In the first place, it is possible to identify the tension of the settled obligation by the federation under particular conditions of the regional. The Mexican reform of 2013 asked all entities the duty of having their legislation on accountability and personal data protection; this situation was evident. This situation passed over the regional agencies incorporating it into the regional life in a coactive form. In contrast, there are issues in which discussion is in some regional areas in a relevant way, and it is determined in legal instruments without being in the federal field; for example, to guarantee the access of journalists to the welfare State. This situation could be clear, more if the Legal technique is only studied. However, when it is articulate it with the social communication studies campus contributes to revealing several levels of legitimacy that reach problems of that field in different levels of legal formulation: national and subnational.

In the second place, the argumentative analysis allowed us to observe that some aspects of the social communication legislated in the subnational entities in Mexico correspond to limited problems. Five categories represent grosso modo the concerns of social communication in the states; the possibility to link these categories with theory-methodology and in the empirical with the constructed by Hallin & Mancini (2004). Also, in the evaluation criteria for the media development (UNESCO-IPDC, 2010) indicates that the legal instruments consider by the subnational entities in Mexico
