The town of asa branca: Constructing public spaces in Brazil
This paper follows the construction of a televisual public space in Brazil since the 1950s until the present, with special attention to television fiction and soap operas, known as novelas in Brazil. The role of novela writers as mass mediators responsible for weaving together a growing public is investigated, with emphasis on their political projects and their responsibilities when writing for millions. Although aided by an industrial process, their task of reaching the public is one full of misunderstandings, which I contend is an intrinsic part of the environment of mass communication. The acceptance of these unavoidable misunderstandings by all involved in mass communication is crucial for the continuation of a communicative game, as we see in the case of Brazilian television. I would like to thank all the people who watched television with me and made it a meaningful game, and especially my father Henrique Pait who, parodying the characters or inserting himself in the dialogues on the screen, managed to disrupt any intended melodrama and make the televisual space one of laughter and reflection. I would also like to thank the novela writers and viewers who granted me interviews, the Brazilian Research Foundation CAPES for their support during my doctoral studies at The New School University, as well as The Communication Review kind editors and reviewers for their illuminating comments. © 2005, Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.São Paulo State UniversitySão Paulo State Universit
Silver rings: students and teachers in a media society
What is the role of teachers in a world of massive information and constantly shifting media spheres? Should he or she resist such changes or accept them acritically? We show here the core of the student-teacher relationship should be preserved if we are to create and maintain a rich public dialogue in our societies. Through pieces of prose, we reflect upon teachers' strategies for navigating complex media spaces. We present four types of teachers: the teacher of the book, the theatrical teacher, the televisual teacher, and the telegraphic teacher. Particular attention is given to the televisual teacher, who is responsible for organizing dispersed information as well as helping students withstand the eventual lack of meaning without ever abandoning the communicative game proposed by television.Qual o papel do professor numa sociedade saturada de informação e marcada por mudanças constantes em suas esferas comunicativas? Ele deve resistir a essas mudanças ou aceitá-las acriticamente? Mostramos aqui que a preservação do núcleo central da relação professor-aluno é crucial para termos um diálogo público rico em nossas sociedades. Através de breves narrativas, refletimos sobre as estratégias usadas por professores para navegar em distintos espaços comunicativos. Os quatro tipos de professor apresentados são o professor do livro, o professor teatral, o professor televisivo e o professor telegráfico. Essa tipologia se refere a modos de incorporar e dar sentido a formas mediáticas distintas. Atenção especial é dada ao professor televisivo, aquele responsável pela organização de informação dispersa e também por ajudar os alunos a tolerar a eventual falta de sentido do campo comunicativo criado pela televisão.Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES)Universidade Estadual Paulista Faculdade de Ciências e Letras de Araraquara departamento de Psicologia da EducaçãoUniversidade Estadual Paulista Faculdade de Ciências e Letras de Araraquara departamento de Psicologia da Educaçã
Global citizens or faraway viewers? São Paulo residents talk about the 2006 Lebanon conflict
As the emergence of a global public sphere becomes a possibility, growing out of denser economic, political and communicative networks as well as demanded by increasingly complex international problems, questions arise about the capacity and willingness of various national publics to engage in the global debate. This paper shows the results of a news reception analysis with the public of the city of São Paulo, Brazil during the months of July-November 2006, when the Lebanon conflict was broadly covered by the Brazilian media. The paper identifies the modes of engagement with the news about the international conflict, the types of reasoning used by these publics in interpreting the news, and the types of debates and conversations they have or don't have about the conflict. Special attention is given to the personal experience of learning about conflicts abroad and to the relationship between this experience and the construction of a new civic identity where participation in global affairs is an important element. The research shows that São Paulo residents are informed and care about international events, but to a large extent lack the resources and the spaces where they could reflect upon them. It also shows that young people tend to experience global events more intensely as part of their world than the general population. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.São Paulo State University at Araraquara (UNESP), São PauloSão Paulo State University at Araraquara (UNESP), São Paul
"Por que você não vai para Paris?"
Coloquei minhas tralhas no bagageiro de cima e me acomodei na cadeira, depois de semanas correndo para terminar um artigo e me preparar para essa viagem. Olhei em volta fazendo um rápido reconhecimento, e relaxei na cabine do avião da El Al que me levaria direto de Guarulhos a Lod. Foi aí que escutei meu pai, com a voz tão sonora como se de fato estivesse lá: "Mas Guga, por que você não vai para Paris?
