Fernandez Roich focusses on several features of media discourse during this time, such as: the notion that petty criminals ?deserve to die' in reference to police brutality and killings, the phenomenon of ?vindicators? or how common citizens turned into ?evil? modern heroes in the press, and the parallelism between the military discourse under the military regime and the punitive discourse under democracy. In addition, the book also investigates the alleged natural propensity towards breaking the law ingrained within Argentinean culture, the so-called 'viveza criolla' and the well-ingrained idea that to get ahead you have to participate in corrupt practices. Despite the significant scholarly interest in the United States and Europe in the last Argentinean dictatorship (1976-1983), little attention has been paid to the role of Argentinean newspapers in supporting the military coup d?état. The analysis of this media discourse is critical to understanding the support enjoyed by the armed forces in power: the vast majority of the population was not informed about the disappearances or the concentration camps until well into the 1980s. This project provides an in-depth qualitative content analysis of front pages, chronicles, editorials and photographs of Argentinean newspapers before and after the military intervention that will aid scholars of criminal justice and Latin American political regimes understand the impact of the support given to the military government. 606 $aCrime?Sociological aspects 606 $aOrganized crime 606 $aEthnology?Latin America 606 $aCommunication 606 $aDiscourse analysis 606 $aCrime and Society$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B3000 606 $aOrganized Crime$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B8000 606 $aLatin American Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411080 606 $aMedia and Communication$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/412010 606 $aDiscourse Analysis$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N51000 615 0$aCrime?Sociological aspects. 615 0$aOrganized crime. 615 0$aEthnology?Latin America. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aDiscourse analysis. 615 14$aCrime and Society. 615 24$aOrganized Crime. 615 24$aLatin American Culture. 615 24$aMedia and Communication. 615 24$aDiscourse Analysis. 676 $a364 700 $aFernandez Roich$b Cynthia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0929353 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255275003321 996 $aMedia and Crime in Argentina$92088754 997 $aUNINA
