  • A History of Age-Rating Television in Brazil
    International Journal of Communication 13(2019), 1167–1185 1932–8036/20190005 The Children Are Watching: A History of Age-Rating Television in Brazil LIAM GREALY1 CATHERINE DRISCOLL The University of Sydney, Australia ANDREA LIMBERTO The National Service for Commercial Education and University of São Paulo, Brazil Histories of Brazilian media regulation typically emphasize a major transformation with the passing of the federal constitution in 1988, contrasting censorship during the military period of 1964‒1985 with age rating, or “indicative classification,” thereafter. Contemporary conflicts among child advocates, television broadcasters, and the state as monitor of the industry’s self-regulation are grounded in a much longer history of age rating in popular media. Drawing on an examination of files from Brazil’s Ministry of Justice and interviews with current examiners, this article provides a history of age ratings for television in Brazil and of the processes by which classification decisions are made. We argue that the desire to limit young people’s access to television through age ratings has had significant ramifications in Brazil, evident in the formation of legal regimes, reform of institutional practices, and even the revision of time zones. Keywords: media classification, age rating, youth, minority, time zones, legal reform, Brazilian television, telenovelas The passing of Brazil’s federal constitution in 1988 was a central achievement in the nation’s transition from a prolonged era of military government to renewed democracy. Regarding media regulation, the constitution is usually understood as a shift from state-led censorship characterized by inconsistency, opaque decision making, and restrictions on political criticism to protected freedom of expression with media subjected to a system of differentiated age-based classifications.

  • Educational Technology and Television in Brazil1
    EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY AND TELEVISION IN BRAZIL EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY AND TELEVISION IN BRAZIL1 ARRIGO LEONARDO ANGELINI University of Sao Paulo, Brazil Some years ago, a department of Educational Psychology in a university such as ours was a place in which you would usually find people interested in learning research and theory, human develop­ ment, tests and measurements, and personal and social adjustment. Interest in psychological aspects of education was largely limited to topics such as “how to handle children in the conventional classroom,” “the advantages of method X of teaching reading as opposed to method Y,” “the measurement of interests by a new standardized test,” and the like. Today it is not surprising that many things which are totally different from our traditional subjects are happening in the Educa­ tional Psychology Department. In one class, educational psycholo­ gists are discussing the psychology of mass communication. In a x'oom nearby, two or three educational psychologists are hard at work on a programmed instruction project; they are writing, with the help of a specialist in budget planning, frames for a programmed textbook about “how to prepare budgets” which will be used in a training project sponsored by the State Secretary of Finance.2 If you go to another room, you will find a charming- and intelligent young lady, also an educational psychologist, working on a creativity stimu­ lation study or on a research project related to cultural deprivation in Sao Paulo slum areas. Go to another room and you will find me busy with the planning of another videotape lesson in a series on the psychology of learning.
