Emancipação intelectual e comunicação: as aventuras de três jovens amazonenses.

Abstract

For a long time the intellectual emancipation of social subjects has been discussed from various realities and specific experiences. We propose to enter into this debate from the experiences of alternative communication channels created in the city of Tefé, a municipality in the interior of the State of Amazonas, located in the Northern Region of Brazil. Experiences that sought to minimize distances between emitters and receivers through: 1. Newspaper Pescadores de Notícias, made from a research and extension project, a partnership between university and school; 2. The Sambaúma Beats program, which aired by radio waves from Xibé and 3. The collective Voice of the Island that aired the radio with the same name. The radios in question are not official from the point of view of the State, since they were not allowed to operate. The objective of this work is to think with the experiences of these communication channels as if they were locally configured the processes of intellectual emancipation of three young people involved in these movements, of their conception and accomplishment. This work is an ethnographic process according to Ribeiro (1999), Velho (1987) and Narayan (1993), using history as the technique according to Thompson (1992). The concepts used address intellectual emancipation and communication. The work proposes dialogical ways to discuss intellectual emancipation in the media of communication, from the theories of Rancière (2018), Freire (2016) and Enzensberger (2003).
