Abstract

This project aims to analyze historical-comparatively the role of educational broadcasting station in Brazilian and French television system during the 1990's and at the beginning of 2000's; its central axle is the social relationships that made possible the creation of Canal Futura and Cinquième. The Brazilian broadcasting station, that is a private educational channel from 1997, would have allowed Roberto Marinho's group to reinforce the images of its enterprises, specially Rede Globo's, as a competent provider of social service and to the diffusion of cultural and educative contents to all the Brazilian society, proving the efficiency of the commercial TV model, in a assumed mission of assuring the quality of the educative productions and consequently, depriving of legitimization the voices that requested the creation of a public television system. The Cinquième, public educational channel, inaugurated in 1994, would has been created to reorganize the French audiovisual landscape, aiming to recover the spaces that had been lost to the private channels when at the moment of the system deregulation in the 1980's. This research project aims to confront the hypothesis that not only the Canal Futura but also the Cinquième - even though they act in different TV fields - answered with actions and practices similar to the educative needs presented by society in the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century.
