Resumo: This study aims to identify strategic responses in the official statements issued by the group of political agents mentioned on "Fachin's List". These statements in response to corruption accusations comprise a mediatized corpus of secondary data that was investigated using interpretive discourse analysis. This study uses an institutionalist approach to the political context considering the complexity and plurality of the institutional sphere, in which each voter is an interlocutor of political discourse. This study also included analyses on how the discursive constructions are formed using intertextual, rhetorical, ambiguous and semantic elements. The results outline five distinct strategies in the official notes, which apply both to individuals as well as organizations: (a) attack by expressing consternation; (b) empathy for supporting anti-corruption actions; (c) manipulation by projecting a political ethos; (d) manipulation by revoking legitimacy; and (e) an adaptive posture in raising ambiguity – contributing to reflection and assessment of reactive behaviors of individuals and organizations in situations of crisis, scandals, guiltiness and corruption.

As notas em resposta às acusações de corrupção compõem um corpus de dados secundários, de divulgação midiática, submetido à análise do discurso de fulcro interpretativista. Priorizou-se o olhar institucionalista sobre o contexto político, que considera a complexidade e a pluralidade da esfera institucional, em que cada eleitor é interlocutor do discurso político. Ao mesmo tempo, analisa-se de que forma as construções discursivas são formatadas com o uso de elementos intertextuais, retóricos, ambíguos e semânticos. Como resultado, identificaram-se cinco estratégias distintas de resposta nas notas oficiais, aplicáveis a indivíduos e organizações: (a) o ataque pela expressão de consternação; (b) a empatia pelo apoio às ações anticorrupção; (c) a manipulação ao projetar o ethos político; (d) a manipulação ao revogar legitimidade; e (e) a postura adaptativa ao suscitar ambiguidade – contribuindo para reflexão e avaliação de comportamentos reativos de indivíduos e organizações em situações de crise, escândalos, culpabilidade e corrupção.Núcleo de Pós-graduação em Administração, Escola de Administração, UFBA2021-04-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/revistaoes/article/view/26455Organizações & Sociedade; Vol. 28 No. 96 (2021)Organizações & Sociedade; v. 28 n. 96 (2021)1984-92301413-585Xreponame:Organizações & Sociedade (Online)instname:Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)instacron:UFBAengporhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/revistaoes/article/view/26455/24534https://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/revistaoes/article/view/26455/24535Copyright (c) 2021 Organizações & Sociedadeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMarcelino, Carolina WünschOliveira, Samir Adamoglu de2021-06-16T10:19:51Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufba.br:article/26455Revistahttp://www.revistaoes.ufba.br/PUBhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpcandidab@ufba.br||revistaoes@ufba.br1984-92301413-585Xopendoar:2021-06-16T10:19:51Organizações & Sociedade (Online) - Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)false
