A comunicação dissidente e os atos que falam/The dissident communication and speech by the deeds

This study elaborated on a special case of communication, used by social actors to convey their dissident messages through dramatic reenactments. Cases are examined and compared. The dissident communication is a special kind of persuasive speech. It aims to affect the climate of public opinion through the right kind of scenes, which allow framing the human emotions that express rebelliousness and criticism. They also allow sending to a specific target audience an implicit political message. The meaning is inferred from the gestures that are interconnected in the dramatization of scenes set in the same way that an interpreter understands a phrase from the play of words in the context of a sentence.
