The aim of this study is to analyze the dispute of meaning about the black bloc tactic since its appearance in the Brazilian public scene, during the wave of protests that became known as “June Journeys”, in 2013. Until then, the practice was little-known by the population, and led to an intense debate inside and outside the media environment in order to assign a meaning to the actions: sometimes labeled as vandalism, sometimes legitimized as a political act. To understand this battle for representation, we gathered several discursive fragments which illustrate the dispute of meaning, and examined them under the methodology of Discourse Analysis. The goal was to identify how antagonistic groups borrowed distinct representations as instruments of affirmation or dismissal of symbolic power – a concept we use in the light of Pierre Bourdieu.
