Abstract

REIS, Bruno Carriço  and  SOUSA, João Carlos. A invisibilidade do desemprego juvenil no discurso mediático da imprensa portuguesa. OBS* [online]. 2017, vol.11, n.1, pp.134lpage=148-. ISSN 1646-5954.

The present international crisis, rooted in the 2007 subprime lending crisis, had a major economic impact at a global scale. For Portugal, main consequences included the increase of insecure jobs and the rise of youth unemployment. From the perspective of media studies, it was important to understand how the media covered both the phenomena and in what ways public debate around insecure jobs and youth unemployment was promoted. The methodology adopted was built-in the content analysis of two Portuguese daily newspapers, namely frequency and textual analysis. Results evidence the detachment of media in relation to the phenomena. Alternatively, media opted for a minimalist coverage characterized by an excessive institutional focus of the problem, thus avoiding a full comprehension of the complexity of the phenomena.

Keywords : youth unemployment; crisis; media representations.
