Abstract(s)
Esta investigação foca-se no estudo do Instagram e na forma como o terrorismo na Europa é representado nesta rede social.
A partir de uma abordagem interpretativista, ligada à exploração do enquadramento teórico, foram produzidas as questões de investigação a que este trabalho pretende responder: “Como é que as pessoas usam o Instagram para falarem acerca do terrorismo?” e “Que características têm as fotografias partilhadas no Instagram acerca dos ataques terroristas?”.
Na componente teórica, é feita uma revisão de literatura que permite uma discussão crítica dos conceitos mais relevantes para esta investigação. São abordados temas como a definição do terrorismo, as suas motivações e crescimento e, por outro lado, a reflexão do que é o Instagram e a forma como esta rede social é utilizada após ataques terroristas.
É na componente empírica que este trabalho vai procurar interpretar que género de imagens são publicadas no Instagram, o que representam e se existe uma evolução na violência das mesmas. Ao analisar 106 publicações percebe-se que existe cada vez menos pudor em publicar imagens que representem diretamente as vítimas dos ataques terroristas.
Desta forma, percebe-se que não só a Internet e o terrorismo estão interligados, mas também os internautas partilham a sua opinião, dor e esperança através da rede social Instagram.
This investigation focuses on the study of Instagram and the way the terrorism in Europe is represented in this social network. Starting from a interpretivist approach, and connected to the exploration of the theoretical approach, from which we produced the investigation questions and that we are trying to answer with this investigative work: “How are people using the Instagram to talk about Terrorism?” and “Which are the characteristics of the pictures shared on Instagram about the terrorist attacks?”. In the theoretical component, we are making in the literature review that allows the critical discussion of the most relevant concepts for this investigation. We study topics as the definition of terrorism, its motivation and growth and, on another side, the reflection of what is Instagram and the way this social network is used after the terrorist attacks. We will appeal the empirical component in this work to try to interpret the type of images are published on Instagram, what they represent and if exists an evolution in the violence in them. After analyzing 106 posts we can understand that there’s less decency in publishing images that represents directly the victims of terrorist attacks. In this way, we can understand that Internet and terrorism are connected, but also the users share their opinions, pain and hopes through the Instagram.
