Sumario:This article aims to analyze media representations of youths who protested in the streets of Brazil in three important political moments, dated in 1968, 1988-1992 and 2013. A desk research collected magazine and newspaper articles, O Globo e Veja respectively, which were chosen because they are the largest vehicles in circulation in all periods. The ten reports were found from searches in the digital collections available on the internet, where keywords such as “youth”, “revolt”, “social movements” and “demonstration” were used. The applied methodology is the interpretative analysis from the Theory of Social Representations of Serge Moscovici. It was observed that the student revolts of 1968 are repeatedly reminded, as a historical reference in modern times, serving to become familiar the phenomena of social movements which storm “adult” society.
