Abstract

Starting from illuminist proposals about the relationship between citizenship and information, they analyze the communication and information practices of an NGO (Non Governmental Organization) in the Brazilian scenario from the 80's on, as a generator/transmitter of information, relating its arising within the reborn civilian society after the end of the dictatorship period. As an empirical field of study, selects IBASE (Brazilian Institute of Social and Economical Analysis) - mother of all Brazilian NGOs - that is analyzed through its main publication - the periodical "Políticas Governamentais" (from number 65 to 97) - from which they try to perceive a biased reading of the speech in quantitative~and qualitative terms, through the words used in the titles of the published topics, by means of bibliometric techniques and a quick summary of its authors, in terms of gender, academic background and institutional entailing. The conclusion, within the statistical parameters, showed the word democracy as the main set of ideas of IBASE. They also outline an attempt of analysis as far as the function of the periodical, as ii is said, targeting the formation of social movement leaderships and its roll as an alternative mean of communication to the official information and the media. The title of the periodical, starting from number 100 is DEMOCRACIA (Democracy), what validated the perception of statistical reading. Originally this research was developed as a Master's Information Science dissertation
