(In)visibilidade do interesse público em espaços políticos interioranos

Abstract

This work discuss about the strategy of (in)visibility (SILVA) to the public comunication of constryside public institutions (WEBER, 2017; ZÉMOR, 2009; PIMENTA, 2015; MATTOS, 2009; ARENDT, 2007), studying Frederico Westphalen`s councillors chamber, raising the following question as the research problem "what are the communicative dynamics of the legislative power - in contryside areas - in the construction of (in)visibility of public interest themes?". Also, it aims to understand the communicative dynamics of Frederico Westphalen's legislative power in the process of building (in)visibility of public interest themes, bringing as specific objectives: to problematize the concept of (in) visibility for Public Communication; to analyze the practices of relationship with the media and use of digital social media by Frederico Westphalen`s councillors chamber; to reflect on political communication in contryside cities. The methodological course is composed by four procedures: bibliographic research (GIL, 2008), systematic observation (GIL, 2008), in-depth interview (MANZINI, 1999) and content analysis (BARDIN, 1977). Thus resulting in a mapping of practices and strategies that make public and private interests invisible and direct through communication.
