SOUZA, Juberto Antonio Massud de  y  JACO-VILELA, Ana Maria. Dictatorship and press: the creation of a terrorist's image of the psychologist Pauline Reichstul. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.44, pp. 116-130. ISSN 2175-1390.

This article aims to understand the ideological movement operated by the Brazilian press in creating a terrorist 's image of the psychologist Pauline Reichstul, murdered in 1973. With this, we resume part of the historiography ofpsychologists who had some role in the resistance against the 1964 class coup. Using the theoretical and methodological assumptions of historical and dialectical materialism, and based on the conception of criticai study of vygotskian theory, we made the concrete analysis of the Brazilian press in dealing with the Pauline 's murder in the Massacre of Chácara São Bento. We searched about Pauline Reichstul in the databases of the newspapers of that time, available at the Biblioteca Nacional. It gave us the empirical material, making it possible to reconstruct this movement from these publications. In the end, we conclude that the construction of this psychologist's image has only become possible through her dehumanization, promoted by the ideological mediation of the press. It served, therefore, like a cog in the machine of the Brazilian State.

Palabras clave : Pauline Reichstul; history of psychology; armed struggle; military dictatorship; histori-cal and dialectical materialism.
