SUMMARY:

This master's thesis is about racial quotas and its general objective is to analyze linguistically and discursively how ethnic-racial quotas are evaluated as an affirmative action policy. And as specific objectives, we list the following: a) Identify evaluation marks on the quota system and what are the social effects of linguistic choices materialized in the corpus of analysis; b) Identify assessment marks in relation to quota students and what are the social effects of linguistic choices materialized in the corpus of analysis; c) Investigate the ideologies that permeate the linguistic choices materialized in the comments on Twitter, in order to discuss how the polarizations between WExTHEY influence the assessment of the quota system and the quota holders. It must be explained that social and racial quotas aim to reduce inequalities that permeate different areas and, as mentioned above, also affect education. Thus, in 2012, Law No. 12,711 was enacted in order to guarantee the admission of PPI students and people with disabilities to higher education courses at universities and federal institutes in Brazil. That said, this research is based on Critical Discourse Analysis/Critical Discourse Analysis studies, more specifically on the dialectical-relational approach (CHOULIARAKI; FAIRCLOUGH, 1999; FAIRCLOUGH, 2003, 2009, 2019) and on the Appraisal System (MARTIN ; WHITE, 2005). For the approach on quotas, we rely on studies of law 12,711/12 and on studies by van Dijk (2017, 2021), mainly. As for racism, we sought studies by hooks (2019); van Dijk (2015); Ribeiro (2019) and Almeida (2019). And in relation to the corpus, it consists of 105 comments taken, through 72 screenshots, from the social network twitter. Finally, we believe that this research can contribute to anti-racist practices, because we realize that there are situations that demonstrate how racism and social, economic and cultural inequalities persist against blacks in the global and Brazilian reality.
