Abstract

ABSTRACT Brazil’s favelas have grown in visibility over the last decades much because of the media produced from these communities. This paper surveys decades of scholarly research to review what it is known about relationship of these communities with the media. Results find emphases on the use of the media to memorialize dwellers’ struggles, favela media as popular culture, and a set of partnerships with NGOs. After the 2000s, as these communities are rendered on mainstream media productions, scholars also started seeing favela inhabitants turning into digital activists. Methodologically, much attention has been given to ethnographic observation, while scholarship remains less invested in understanding local frames and discourses.
贫民窟与媒介的调查研究:几十年来批判性探索的重点与缺失
在过去的几十年里,巴西的贫民窟越来越引人注目,这主要是因为这些社区产生的媒体。本文调查了数十年的学术研究,以回顾这些社区与媒体之间的关系。结果发现,重点是利用媒体来纪念居民的斗争,贫民窟媒体作为流行文化,以及与非政府组织的一系列合作伙伴关系。21世纪后,随着这些社区出现在主流媒体作品中,学者们也开始看到贫民窟居民变成了数字活动家。在方法上,人们对民族志观察给予了很大的关注,而学术界对理解当地框架和话语的投入仍然较少。
