A EXCLUSÃO DOS IDOSOS NA MÍDIA IMPRESSA: O QUE É DITO E O QUE É SILENCIADO SOBRE ELES

A proposta deste trabalho é discutir algumas representações deidosos que aparecem na mídia impressa (revista Veja), através da análise da materialidade linguística de recortes discursivos selecionados. Nosso objetivo é levantar questionamentos sobre a identidade do idoso na sociedade contemporânea, através do imaginário que é construído por esses meios de comunicação, numa perspectiva teórica dos discursos e dos estudos da identidade. Tal problemática se põe em relevância no momento em que a população envelhece e denega esse envelhecimento, em nome da busca de um imaginário da eterna juventude. Propomo-nos, com a análise, revelar um pouco do imaginário social do idoso veiculado por essa mídia e problematizar as identidades propostas aos idosos por esses veículos deinformação, buscando desconstruir estereótipos e produzir novos olhares sobre a velhice, de forma a disseminar tal debate em outras instâncias discursivas, como o discurso pedagógico.

CRIMES AND PUNISHMENTS: REPRESENTATIONS OF CRIMINALITY AND THE ROLE OF STATE IN ITS FIGHT IN BRAZILIAN PRESS

The present paper aims at analyzing the representation of criminality and the government's action to fight crime trough the study of the discursive role of referenciation as a lexicalization process and the theoretical and methodological procedures of Critical Discourse Analysis developed by van Dijk. For that reason, we analyzed two articles on criminality, published in 2007 by two magazines: Veja and Carta Capital. The analysis of these articles revealed two kinds of positioning about crime and its combat, based on visions about the event from different social groups.

This article is part of the activities carried out in the research and extension Project ‘Webbing of a discursivity in the Northern MatoGrosso region in Legal Amazon: contexts and possibilities of development with sustainability’. The goal of this research is to understand the discursivity put in the Northern MatoGrosso region inserted in Legal Amazon in the formulation ‘sustainable development’ through the theoretical postulations of the French line Discourse Analyses. In this article we analyse two pieces of News diffused in the printed media in Sinop, aiming to verify how the theme sustainable development is presented according to linguistic enunciations by the journalistic proposer in the journalistic discourse. We search to understand the different meaning effects that are found in the dialogues. Among the analyzed results that we evident in the formulations we can highlight dislocation, incompletions and polemics between the environmentalistis’ and developmentists’ discourses, confronted in ideological socio-economical opposition that happens fundamentally because of the work organizations and the current political systems.
