For the first time in its history, Brazil, a country of few demonstrations, carries massive protests organized spontaneously through the social network Facebook, in a country that uses this type voraciously channel, now a broad political outlook.
The last time you lived a social situation was similar in 1992 when outrage over the economic and political situation of the country thousands of people took to the streets to demand the resignation of President Fernando Collor de Mello, involved in a scandal corruption.

At the time there was no social networks and the internet was barely known and the demonstrations were led by people visible, some of which comandariam years after the country's fate, as the PT's former president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and the current president, Dilma Rousseff.

Now, over 20 years later and in the middle of the realization of the Confederations Cup, hundreds of thousands of Brazilians took to the streets to some claims similar to then, how to end corruption and improve health and education, to which is added as novelty rejection astronomical expenditure with sporting events.

However, now lacking a defined leader, a spokesperson or an organization, and what unites all are social networks, particularly Facebook.
This brings difficulties to police themselves. "There is no leadership, coordination. Never not know what they will do, what is the agenda," said Col. Marcelo Pignatari, responsible for the command of the Paulista avenue during a protest on Thursday last.
So the police began to monitor social networks admitted.
The events are multiplied by Facebook with varied intentions since the protests that seek to improve society proposals to restore the Imperial Palace in the center of Rio de Janeiro.
According to figures released this week by the Center for the Study of the Development of Information Society in Brazil's 80.9 million internet users and 139.8 million mobile phone users in a country with over 190 million inhabitants.
In this demonstration Thursday in Rio de Janeiro, a student of Philosophy Naomi Baranek, 19, told Efe that she learned of the event through Facebook, although there were student movements within the public universities who divulged this information.
Universities are "a meeting to resolve" issues of interest "in this battle front," said Efe Rian Rodrigues, a student of Physical Education for 25 years as part of the Forum Fights Against Increased Passage.
It is a movement that was born Rio de Janeiro to avoid the increase of public transport tickets, but now sits to discuss other topics.
Rodrigues acknowledges that "lack leadership, direction" in the protests and that this should come "leftist parties" of the country, in turn criticizes the role of mass media in Brazil and the political right before the demonstrations.
At the same time, participants in the protests booed militants who carried flags of left parties in the marches and on Thursday burned a PT in São Paulo, in an attempt to keep the partisan movement.
According to history professor Renato Pellizzari, the delay in getting the population to manifest created a kind of necessity claim to want everything at the same time.
"But now that people know that can claim, must show it whenever you are dissatisfied, you must actively participate, not only at the ballot box. Has to manifest itself during the four-year term, influence decisions," he said. EFE
