Open-access “US FOR OURSELVES”: ENREGISTERING AND DE-ESCALATING CORONAVIRUS UNDER NERVOUS CONDITIONS

“NÓS POR NÓS”: ENREGISTRAMENTO E DESESCALAÇÃO DO CORONAVÍRUS SOB CONDIÇÕES NERVOSAS

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we explore how attention to language and communication has been one of the strategies to combat the pandemic and foster health justice in the deprived areas of the city. To investigate such aspect, we draw on the conceptions of enregisterment, de-escalation and orders of indexicality. We focus on practices of pragmatic survival enacted by Maré Mobilization Front.

Keywords:
enregistering; de-escalation; order of indexicality; pragmatic survival; straight talk
