Resumo: Through the concepts of risk and negligence, contemporary cultures construct accidents, crimes and catastrophes as depending upon political decisions. On one hand, this construction explains why what used to be considered as fait divers is today viewed as political, economic or scientific news. On the other hand, at least in Brazil, this construction operates a moral distribution between regular, innocent individuals and incompetent, corrupt politicians. This distribution feeds moral indignation and increases the crisis of politics.

Essa forma de construção, de um lado, explica porque parte do que antes era tido como fait divers torna-se notícia política, econômica ou científica. De outro lado, ao menos no Brasil, essa construção opera uma distribuição entre indivíduos comuns inocentes e políticos ineficientes e corruptos, distribuição que alimenta a indignação moral e amplia a crise da política.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2008-09-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/article/view/409310.15448/1980-3729.2008.35.4093Revista FAMECOS; Vol. 15 No. 35 (2008); 51-60Revista FAMECOS; Vol. 15 Núm. 35 (2008); 51-60Revista FAMECOS; v. 15 n. 35 (2008); 51-601980-37291415-054910.15448/1980-3729.2008.35reponame:Revista FAMECOS: Mídia cultura e tecnologiainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/article/view/4093/3108Vaz, Pauloinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2017-05-28T15:45:56Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/4093Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecosPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/oai||revistafamecos@gmail.com1980-37291980-3729opendoar:2017-05-28T15:45:56Revista FAMECOS: Mídia cultura e tecnologia - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
