Abstract

The present work studies propaganda nad censorship in Estado Novo. A period that has as a characteristic a posture focused on the process of political and social control. We analyze the emergence of repressive thinking in the early 1930s, which settled in Brazil through a revolution aimed at ending the values of the old republic, which extended in the country from 1889 to 1930. We will see how Getúlio Vargas made use of the propaganda to control the mass and achieve through alienation, driven by the media, popular support. We will understand how suppressed was the forces that opposed this authoritarian form of government. And finally we will analyze the view taken on women in this period, a very patriarchal and subordinate view. We will see how women who did not submit and fight against this regime were reprimanded and persecuted.
