Abstract
The distinct models that describe spin 1 and 2 massive excitations in 2+1 dimensions are analized, showing their equivalence (between models of same spin) and analogies (between models of different spin). Topics as spontaneous symmetry breaking and anyonic behaviour, in these models, are analized. A massive gravity model is introduced. This model is diffeomophism invariant, but it is not Lorentz invariant.
