Uma análise da cobertura do "choque de ordem" em diários cariocas.

This paper examines the coverage of the "clash of order" in two traditional newspapers of Rio de Janeiro (Jornal do Brasil and O Dia) during the first hundred days in office of Mayor Eduardo Paes, who took office in January 2009. "Clash of order" is the name given by Rio de Janeiro's municipal government - and incorporated by those two newspapers - to the more visible public policy implemented during the first year of the administration. The discussion of that policy and its coverage is required by their relevant impact on part of the city's working population and the role played by newspapers in constructing and legitimating ways of being and acting in the urban space. As theoretical references, the paper discusses the notion of "criminalization" of poverty as it appears in the works of such authors as Zygmunt Bauman, Loïc Wacquant, Mike Davis and Marcelo Lopes de Souza.
