Resumo: | Over the past few years, new forms of socialization of politics through social media have found expression in collective mobilizations. The paper examines the case of the recent uprisings in Brazil. It presents the results of a qualitative research carried out between June 2013 and June 2015, with focus on the actors involved, their reasons to participate, as well as the continuity of their action. Three research tools were used in the study: social media mapping, an online survey and interviews with activists. The findings give credit to the existence of a connective logic on the social networks, as they illustrate that what attracted the masses in June 2013 was mainly the ‘event of a protest’. Nevertheless, political engagement was found to increase in smaller circles, among groups of youth who got involved during the uprisings, and are motivated by the idea of a political resistance up to present days. |

O artigo examina as recentes revoltas no Brasil, apresentando os resultados de uma pesquisa qualitativa realizada entre Junho de 2013 e Junho de 2015, com foco nos atores envolvidos, suas razões para participarem e a continuidade de sua ação. Três instrumentos de pesquisa foram utilizados no estudo: um mapeamento inicial das mídias sociais, um breve questionário on-line e algumas entrevistas com ativistas. Os resultados mostram a existência de uma "lógica conectiva" nas redes sociais e ilustram que o que atraiu as massas em junho de 2013 foi principalmente o "evento" de um protesto. No entanto, verifica-se que o engajamento político dos jovens está aumentando aos poucos, entre grupos que se envolveram durante os protestos e continuam motivados pela ideia da resistência política até os dias de hoje.UFRGS2016-08-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa qualitativa; Pedquisa Documentalapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/debates/article/view/6454710.22456/1982-5269.64547Revista Debates; Vol. 10 Núm. 2 (2016): Democracia, protestos e juventude; 31-46Revista Debates; v. 10 n. 2 (2016): Democracia, protestos e juventude; 31-461982-52692236-479Xreponame:Revista Debatesinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSenghttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/debates/article/view/64547/38511Copyright (c) 2016 Revista Debatesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPischetola, Magda2017-08-29T14:05:35Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/64547Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/debatesPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/debates/oai1982-52692236-479Xopendoar:2017-08-29T14:05:35Revista Debates - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false |
