Abstract
The discussion about consumption, consumerism, and the discourse of happiness is associated with contemporary society. Based on Critical Discourse Analysis, we analyzed two journalistic texts published in Brazil in 2013, which address the relationship between consumption, life, and happiness. Faced with these problematic issues, we put on the spotlight the ambivalence appended to the journalistic discourse on happiness in the context of a culture of consumption, considering the meanings it produces interfere in the social fabric since world convictions are acquired through the discourse, which constitutes and molds the world in meanings.
期刊介绍:
The journal Comunicação, Mídia e Consumo – Communication, Media and Consumption – is published in printed and digital versions by the Programa de Pós-Graduação em Comunicação e Práticas de Consumo da ESPM-SP – Postgraduate Programme in Communication and Consumption Practices of ESPM-SP – Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing – Superior School of Propaganda and Marketing and it is evaluated as Qualis A2; its editorial line is to approach relevant topics of the field of Communication, understood here as a complex socio-cultural process and practice. The articles must be well-founded and mobilise different authors of a given theoretical tendency so that they develop a critical reflection about the approached thematic topics. In the case of empirical articles, besides the contextualisation and the descriptive stage of the material, we privilege articles which present a theoretico-interpretative of the aspects that are observed in the corpus.
