This book explores the struggles over the mediated construction and
projection of the image of the nation at times of social unrest.
Focussing on the June 2013 protests in Brazil, it examines how
different actors -authorities, activists, the national media,
foreign correspondents- disseminated competing versions of 'what
Brazil was' during that pivotal episode. The book offers a fresh
conceptual approach, supported by media coverage analysis and
original interviews, that demonstrates the potential of digital
media to challenge power structures and establish new ways of
representing the nation. It also highlights the vulnerability of
both 'old' and 'new' media to forms of inequality and disruption
due to political interferences, technological constraints, and
continuing commercial pressures. Contributing to the study of media
and the nation as well as media and social movements, the author
throws into sharp relief the profound transformation of mediated
nationhood in a digital and global media environment.
