Abstract:
This article discusses the programming and political-institutional identity of radio stations maintained by the Brazilian legislative branch (Radio Senado and Radio CAmara) from a perspective of public communication as an interface between culture and democracy. The hypothesis that inspired the study is that these stations, despite being created in 1998, are heirs of a tradition of educational radio in Brazil that started in 1920. It concludes that this heritage persists with a new approach focusing on education for democracy and citizenship. However, the traditional standard of political communication continues to be based on the unilateral power of the state to decide what citizens must know and how education and culture should be treated in society.
