Camila Hartmann, PhD student from UFSM
In my thesis, I am studying the mediatization of the Russian-Ukrainian war on the front pages of two newspapers representing the Brazilian (Folha de S.Paulo) and Swedish (Dagens Nyheter) mainstream media. It is a comparative study, pointing out similarities and differences between the front pages of Brazil and Sweden. My corpus is formed by front pages published from 24 February 2022 to 24 February 2023, that is, during one year of the ongoing full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia. My analysis begins with a quantitative work, whose results are the focus of this seminar, followed by a qualitative work, observing the front pages as discursive materialities linked to a certain context of production and circulation. Initially, I will present some data that integrate the rationale of my research. Then, briefly, I comment on some aspects of the theoretical framework that underpins me, especially on mediatization, an approach that is dear to my academic trajectory, and in line with the focus of our CAPES-Stint agreement; and also journalistic front pages/covers, an empirical object that I have been studying for ten years. Next, I will make a brief explanation of my methodological procedures so far, followed by the results of my quantitative analysis. Finally, I bring some exemplary front pages and share insights that have arisen from preliminary qualitative analysis to boost the debate.

The symbiotic relationships between Journalists and Mobile Devices – a parallel between journalistic practices in Brazil and Sweden in the context of mediatization
The ongoing Ph.D. research is guided by the following research question: how do symbiotic relationships, characteristic of a global mediatization scenario, manifest themselves in journalism newsrooms in Brazil and Sweden? What are the differences and similarities between the two scenarios? As the main aim, the thesis seeks to understand how symbiotic relationships, characteristic of a mediatization scenario, remodel journalistic practices and newsrooms in Brazil and Sweden Secondly, the thesis is concerned with a) Understanding how the process of circulation of meanings is present in the structuring and production of journalistic content through symbiotic relationships in the two contexts; b) Propose the concept of mediatized newsrooms; c) Identify how the ambiance changed the news building practices in Brazil and Sweden; d) Measure how the pandemic has affected journalistic practices; news products and newsrooms in Brazil and Sweden; e) Observe the circulation of meanings of social actors in both contexts. Besides, the research is separated as follows: a) a theoretical discussion on symbiotic relationships with theoretical support from authors such as Joel de Rosnay (1997); Marshall McLuhan (1964); Derrick de Kerchove (2013); Mark Deuze (2014); Marcellino and Fort (2019) to contextualize symbiotic relationships as a social-communicational-anthropological phenomenon.; b) a discussion on mediatized journalism from a Latin American and Nordic perspective with the support of authors such as Antonio Fausto Neto (2019); Ana Paula da Rosa (2016;2019); Mark Deuze (2020); Stina Bengtsson (2016) among others to understand the phenomenon of mediatization and how it encompasses the complete social context, including journalism newsrooms; c) In a third moment, the article proposes to discuss how journalism works in Brazil and Sweden from a perspective not of comparing the scenarios, but of contextualizing the research objects of the study. As a methodology, the thesis proposes to conduct in-depth interviews with communication professionals who work in newsrooms in Brazil and Sweden to understand how symbiotic relationships are inserted in the context. To conclude, the research realizes that there are similarities in the process of using smartphones in daily practices in newsrooms in Brazil and Sweden. Furthermore, symbiotic relationships, despite their particularities in each nationality, are a global social-communicational-anthropological phenomenon that changes daily practices and exercises in the most diverse social strata and institutions, such as journalism.
