Abstract

ABSTRACT The pandemic of the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has exposed the face of inequality in several countries. Populations historically suffering from social, economic and political problems that affect their well-being are the most impacted, as is the case of Brazilian peripheries. From this background, we discuss the mobilization of Brazilian civil society in urban peripheries in the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, through the combination of the concepts of framing, identity and solidarity. To do that, we analyzed data from the Map Corona in the Peripheries and a netnography of the cases from the Unified Center of Favelas (CUFA) and the Front City of God (CDD). As results, we present a model of recursiveness among the three concepts, as a driver of collective action, and notice the relevant role of the emergency brought by the pandemic as a trigger of this recursiveness.
