ABSTRACT
Considering the mobility of signs and texts, the aim of this article is to analyze the narrative performances of three university students who migrated to work on their undergraduate degrees. For this purpose, our research was based on theoretical concepts of scale and orders of indexicality (BLOMMAERT, 2006BLOMMAERT, J. Sociolinguistic scales. 2006.

This study draws attention to microfascist attitudes detected in everyday interactions. By focusing on textual trajectories that make other structures of participation possible in the scaling projections, narrative performances that displace sedimented views of sociability and territorialization are identified.
