Abstract

<doi>10.12957/tecap.2014.16251

The Rio carnaval street blocks are an insightful and irreverent way to chronicle the events that have marked the history of Rio de Janeiro, the country and even the world, through their sambas - sung narratives - in which laughter, humor, the mockery against power and the powerful and the disciplining mechanisms typical of modernizing processes are questioned and criticized. These narratives are often a result of reception capabilities that cannot resist the process of forced associations, therefore subverting and transfiguring the official and the media discourse.
