The magazine target was Brazilian and foreign schools and universities, his students and whoever was interested on culture, science, politics or signed articles. This publication purpose was to be the divulgation vehicle of new cultural and scientific ideas, most of them produced by Brazilian researchers, intellectuals and artists. Together with the cultural production of authors like Carlos Drummond de Andrade, the magazine also covered the major happenings from Brazil and the world. The editorials were signed by the magazine director – Paulo Duarte – one of the intellectuals with participation in the University of São Paulo foundation. Other researchers, already well-known at that time, such as José Reis, Florestan Fernandes and others, published in Anhembi, regularly. Their articles presented always a favorable content to democracy and the country development. What was outof-date and its “agents”, the dictatorships, the corruption were open enemies of the magazine, which criticized governments, like for example, General Salazar´s, in Portugal. The criticisms, sometimes contrary to the status quo, finally justified the circulation prohibition in some countries, like in Portugal, and also a diminishing of the advertising sponsorship Not only because of these problems, the increase in the paper cost made, in the long run, the publication of Anhembi impossible to continue. Meanwhile, the national nuclear policy and its defenders, like Alvaro Alberto da Motta e Silva, besides some other researchers, was not one of the routine issues covered by the magazine. Despite the magazine reported, in every new edition, a series of occurrences and claims - new universities and research centers foundation in the country, the struggle for funds, the national commissions asking for the full-time dedication regime for research, the nuclear issue focused, mainly, bombing tests by the summit nations, the United States and the Soviet Union (now Russia). Almost by the time that the magazine activities discontinued, it finally changed its intellectual posture concerning nuclear technology – one of the few items of news treated with prejudice, at least until 1957 – had been nuclear related subjects.openAccessdocument typeshistorical aspectsinformation disseminationnuclear energynuclear powerpolitical aspectspublic informationpublic opinionTexto completo de evento
