Jogo e Riso: O Coringa e o uso da cidade
Palavras-chave The paper analyzes Christopher Nolan’s Batman: the dark knight (USA, 2008), specifically how the conflict between characters Batman and Joker reflects a dispute over the city. If the function of the superhero is to preserve the prevailing order, his praxis is focused on maintaining the status quo. However, the Joker himself admits that he does not exist without Batman. Such a contradiction suggests that the right to the city of Gotham is only possible when the hero-villain dispute no longer subjugates this space. Thus, it is not a question of choosing between Batman or the Joker, but of using their conflict in the reflexive process for the emancipation of the city.
