Abstract

This dissertation has as main aims understand how anti-communist representations were built on Brazil and how the idea was consolidated according to wich the 1964 civil-military coup are the results of a prevention to a supossed communist coup. Such concerns elapsed of the big presence of anti-comunist speeches nowadays and of insistence by some groups to relate the coup suffered by Goulart to a communist threat. For this, we used as documentary source the Jornal da Manhã of the year 1964, a journal of the city Ponta Grossa/PR, owned by João Vargas de Oliveira, bussinessperson and state deputy for the National Democratic Union (NDU), with the objective of understanding how were representate the communist and the way that the coup was showed in the journal. Characterized by being a documentary research and bibliographic and has as analysis methodology the concept of representations proposed by Chartier (1990), understanding that these are not neutral, carrying, therefore, values and ideologies. When thinking about anti-communism present in the Jornal da Manhã, we left the Motta (2000) analysis, that says that the anti-communism present christian matrices, liberal and nationalist; and of the Mendes (2004) studies, that searched the anti-communism between the military, bussinessman and udenists. To understand the constructions about the 1964 coup, we apropriated the propositions by Fico (2014) and Napolitano (2014), for which the coup was a civil-military coup done by the brazilian army with support of civil society sectors. The purposeful part of that work was the construction of a didactic unit, aiming to facilitate the pedagogic work about anti-communist, aboutt he civil-military coup of 1964, and colaborate with the formation of more critical and tolerant people with plurality of ideas and political conceptions. Before the search results, was possible to underst and the anti-communism that the Jornal da Manhã showed udenist, nacionalist, liberal and Christian, being that the coup suffered by Goulart was represented in him as a need against the supossed communist threat.
