Abstract

This paper presents part of the theoretical discussions on the thesis “Image and sense production about Rio de Janeiro favelas in journalistic photos”, retaking the argument about the apparently objective character of the photo and the risk of assimilating the image without considering its cultural and ideological elements, to consider the photojournalistic discourse and the meanings that it can engender, directing the gaze to certain worldviews.
