Brazilian political demonstration dataset
Listed in REDU - Unicamp Institutional Research Data Repository
Overview The Brazilian Political Protest Dataset (Annotated Tweets) is a collection of 5,000 manually labeled tweets related to protests in Brazil on September 7, 2021, and subsequent demonstrations in the following days.
Description
The dataset captures public discourse on Twitter, including opinions, news, and media content shared by users supporting and opposing the protests. To collect the dataset, we used a keyword-based approach, selecting terms that were trending in Brazil at the time.
The 5,000 annotated tweets were manually labeled to support research in political discourse analysis, misinformation detection, and social media studies. Due to the location and context of the protests, most tweets are in Portuguese, with a small portion in English and Spanish. Usage and Applications This dataset might be valuable for research in: Political Discourse Analysis: Understanding how different political groups interact online.
