Considering that journalism assists the construction of reality rather than reflect it, this thesis seeks to show how Newspapers from the state of Paraiba build the notion of politics. For this purpose, we analyze the Paraiba political journalism in an essentially vital context for politics: elections. Specifically the race for state governor in 2010. With the help of the phenomenological approach of Alfred Schutz, we observed that newspapers understand very well the subjects of their political coverage. But, also, these same papers present state politics as a broader object than it appears to be. The political journalism dedicated to the State's actions and the interaction of its main characters is therefore only a part of what the papers understand as politics. The other part, more complex and less apparent, is related to sociocultural constructions that permeate the journalistic production context. Therefore, to get to the proposed analyses, we were dedicated to examine the components of these sociocultural constructions: the notion of politics as interpreted by three authors - Aristotle, Max Weber and Hannah Arendt - how the political imaginary of a place is permeated by sociocultural aspects, the characteristics of political journalism and the theoretical perspectives that include journalism in a constructivist sense. The disposition of these subjects is justified by understanding that journalism is driven from technical and news production rules, but is also in a constant interaction with the environment in which it is produced as well as reframes and reproduces the results of these interactions on their content. In this sense, we use the methodological framework supported by Discourse Analysis to grasp and understand how these results are explained in the news and how they make their own notions of policy. To develop this study were collected in total, 23 stories, 15 from the “Jornal da Paraíba” and 8 from “Correio da Paraíba”. The gathering of these materials took place from July to November of 2010 and took into account factors such as incidence of speeches of leading candidates of the elections we analyze here and the relevance of these speeches for the proposed analysis. With the aforementioned information, we present an analysis of the meanings of politics built by the newspapers of Paraíba during this period: the common good of Aristotle, the power of Weber and the freedom of Arendt, each occupying a specific function in these senses.
