Examining the role of communication technologies from two distinct analytical grounds, cooperation and conflict, articulated through a counterhegemonic perspective, we argue that the renewal of democracy rests upon cooperative practices and its vocabularies, as well as the thickening of networks of resistance against neoliberal hegemony. In the first chapter, we argue that social production initiatives can sustain a emancipatory subjective impact, despite its contribution to capitalist accumulation, for it makes room for a pedagogy of the common which leads us to think of our creations in terms of closeness, not authorship. The second chapter puts forward two hypothesis regarding Jornadas de Junho: first, that it ended up creating solidarities bonds among classes, and second, that the main reason for the so called failure of the protests wasn t either its lack of a centralized leadership or its rejection to established political actors, but the alliance between State and corporate media around repression. By way of a framing analysis of the corporate media, we concluded that they managed to put violence at the core of the protests through a double movement that included the naming of a subject-of-violence and the normalization of the state of exception devoted to abort its existence. We also examine the broadcasting of protests through Twitcam, arguing that its polyphonic framing by a multitude of media activists publicly debunked the founding myth of journalism, broadened the scope of voices in the public sphere, thus helping to develop a new political subject in the process of representing it.
