Abstract

This text discusses the relation between media and cultural violence,broaching the possible ways of its impact on society. The media violenceor the violence at the media must be thought, especially fromthe nowadays media culture and the techno rationalism sphere. Technorationalism is a well founded and a complex whole of values, symbols,ideologies and well developed, worshiped and irradiated conceptsthrough the contemporaneous media. This is about a socio structuralapparatus that causes the gradually and continuous dissolution of thecommon individual potentialities. It is built a violence culture on thenetwork values. We live, today, a culture that natura-lizes violence. So,this study leads with subjects such as the reality performance, violencevulgarization and the repetition and the saturation of the sense.
