Abstract

Paradoxical joy is the theme of this article. A connection is made between the popular movements and protests that occurred since 2013 in Brazil with the concept of carnivalization, paradoxical joy and tragic philosophy. The corpus is composed of an example of popular manifestation; an analysis of a humorous speech (stand up) and analysis of a television humor program. The methodology adopted is the dialogue of collating, in which everything dialogues with everything. The understanding of the link between inorganic politics and carnivalization will be grounded in tragic philosophy and paradoxical joy. The carnivalization and ambivalence of carnival laughter is the defense of an inorganic politics in the bowels of the popular demonstrations.
