“The Fame System”: Radio, Gender and Malandragem in 1940-Brazil This paper analyses the meaning of malandragem and the role the radio has played in 1940-Brazil. Both radio and malandragem, objects of political and cultural surveillance during the constitution of the national state in Brazil, must be viewed within a broader framework of social transformations: on the one hand, the modernization of Brazilian society; on the other hand, the international political context triggered by Second World War. Amidst the tensions of a world divided between modern and traditional values we find malandros, women, radio singers, that is, the protagonists of a dramatic urban experience, masterly represented in the literary conflicts and polemic musicals of that time.
