Resumen
The aim of this study is to analyze the dispute of meaning about the black bloc tactic since its appearance in the brazilian public scene during the wave of protests that became known as "June Journeys", in 2013. Until then, the practice was little-known by the country population, whatled to an intense debate inside and outside the media environment in order to assign a meaning to the actions: sometimes labeled as vandalism, sometimes legitimized as a political act. For our research, we make useof a theoretical exploration of the concepts of event, violence, politics, political violence and symbolic power. For the analysis, we gathered several discursive fragments in four sets of statements that refer to core moments of dispute of meaning. Such statements were collected from newspaper articles, blogs and social media on internet, alongside an interview with a black bloc activist from São Paulo.
