Download or read book Lo Posthumano written by Rosi Braidoti and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuestra segunda vida en el mundo digital, la comida genéticamente modificada, las prótesis de nueva generación y las tecnologías reproductivas son aspectos ya familiares de la condición posthumana. Ya que se han borrado las fronteras entre aquello que es humano y aquello que no lo es, poniendo en evidencia la base no natural del ser humano actual. Desde el punto de vista de la Filosofía y la Teoría Política, urge actualizar las definiciones de identidad y los fenómenos sociales a raíz de este salto. Con un simple análisis se verá que después de haber constatado el fin del Humanismo, es preciso ver en esta transformación las malas intenciones de una colonización de la vida por parte de los mercados y su lógica del beneficio. Es preciso, pues, adecuar la teoría a los cambios en curso, sin añoranzas por una humanidad ahora perdida y cogiendo las oportunidades ofrecidas por las formas de Neohumanismo que nacen de los movimientos medio ambientales y de los Estudios de Género y Postcoloniales.

Book Synopsis The Politics of Political Science by : Paulo Ravecca
Download or read book The Politics of Political Science written by Paulo Ravecca and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-02-11 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thought-provoking book, Paulo Ravecca presents a series of interlocking studies on the politics of political science in the Americas. Focusing mainly on the cases of Chile and Uruguay, Ravecca employs different strands of critical theory to challenge the mainstream narrative about the development of the discipline in the region, emphasizing its ideological aspects and demonstrating how the discipline itself has been shaped by power relations. Ravecca metaphorically charts the (non-linear) transit from “cold” to “warm” to “hot” intellectual temperatures to illustrate his—alternative—narrative. Beginning with a detailed quantitative study of three regional academic journals, moving to the analysis of the role of subjectivity (and political trauma) in academia and its discourse in relation to the dictatorships in Chile and Uruguay, and arriving finally at an intimate meditation on the experience of being a queer scholar in the Latin American academy of the 21st century, Ravecca guides his readers through differing explorations, languages, and methods. The Politics of Political Science: Re-Writing Latin American Experiences offers an essential reflection on both the relationship between knowledges and politics and the political and ethical role of the scholar today, demonstrating how the study of the politics of knowledge deepens our understanding of the politics of our times.
Book Synopsis Science in Latin America by : Juan José Saldaña
Download or read book Science in Latin America written by Juan José Saldaña and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-06-03 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science in Latin America has roots that reach back to the information gathering and recording practices of the Maya, Aztec, and Inca civilizations. Spanish and Portuguese conquerors and colonists introduced European scientific practices to the continent, where they hybridized with local traditions to form the beginnings of a truly Latin American science. As countries achieved their independence in the nineteenth century, they turned to science as a vehicle for modernizing education and forwarding "progress." In the twentieth century, science and technology became as omnipresent in Latin America as in the United States and Europe. Yet despite a history that stretches across five centuries, science in Latin America has traditionally been viewed as derivative of and peripheral to Euro-American science. To correct that mistaken view, this book provides the first comprehensive overview of the history of science in Latin America from the sixteenth century to the present. Eleven leading Latin American historians assess the part that science played in Latin American society during the colonial, independence, national, and modern eras, investigating science's role in such areas as natural history, medicine and public health, the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, politics and nation-building, educational reform, and contemporary academic research. The comparative approach of the essays creates a continent-spanning picture of Latin American science that clearly establishes its autonomous history and its right to be studied within a Latin American context.

Download or read book Decisão: perspectivas interdisciplinares written by Carlos Henggeler Antunes and published by Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra / Coimbra University Press. This book was released on 2007-07-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este livro revisita o ciclo de conferências sobre “Decisão”, organizado pelo III-UC, INESC Coimbra e FEUC, cujas sessões tiveram lugar em Outubro e Novembro de 2005, que contaram com a participação de quatro cientistas de mérito internacionalmente reconhecido, os Profs. Alexis Tsoukiàs (Paris), John Broome (Oxford), Ralph Keeney (Duke) e Paul Slovic (Oregon). Estes cientistas apresentaram quatro perspetivas diversas acerca do tema do ciclo: as da investigação operacional, da filosofia, da análise de decisões e da psicologia, respetivamente. Cada um dos artigos dos conferencistas convidados foi selecionado pelo seu autor como um dos que melhor representaria a perspetiva apresentada na sua palestra. O texto de Slovic descreve a importância que o afeto tem na determinação de juízos e decisões, defendendo que a confiança depositada nesses sentimentos pode ser caracterizada como uma Heurística Afetiva. O artigo de Tsoukiàs apresenta uma visão retrospetiva sobre a evolução da teoria da decisão para uma metodologia de ajuda à decisão, considerando o autor que todas as teorias da decisão partilham uma característica comum – a utilização de linguagens formais e abstratas e de um modelo de racionalidade, defendendo uma abordagem científica para a ajuda à decisão em problemas enfrentados por indivíduos e/ou organizações. O texto de Keeney sintetiza algumas das principais ideias que preconiza para intervir em situações de decisão, neste caso em situações de definição de políticas públicas, advogando e ilustrando a importância de basear a intervenção na eliciação dos valores do público e na sua modelação através de uma função de utilidade multiatributo. O texto de Broome pretende ilustrar os moldes em que o problema de tomada de decisões pode aparecer no âmbito da Filosofia, debruçando-se sobre um tema de longo debate entre filósofos: pode um raciocínio culminar numa ação ou apenas pode culminar numa crença? Cada um destes artigos, traduzido para a língua portuguesa, é acompanhado por um comentário de um autor português, respetivamente: Armando Mónica de Oliveira, Manuel Matos, João Clímaco e António Manuel Martins. O livro inclui ainda um capítulo introdutório que oferece uma breve panorâmica das disciplinas que se entrecruzam na palavra Decisão.

Book Synopsis Information Cultures in the Digital Age by : Matthew Kelly
Download or read book Information Cultures in the Digital Age written by Matthew Kelly and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-08 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For several decades Rafael Capurro has been at the forefront of defining the relationship between information and modernity through both phenomenological and ethical formulations. In exploring both of these themes Capurro has re-vivified the transcultural and intercultural expressions of how we bring an understanding of information to bear on scientific knowledge production and intermediation. Capurro has long stressed the need to look deeply into how we contextualize the information problems that scientific society creates for us and to re-incorporate a pragmatic dimension into our response that provides a balance to the cognitive turn in information science. With contributions from 35 scholars from 15 countries, Information Cultures in the Digital Age focuses on the culture and philosophy of information, information ethics, the relationship of information to message, the historic and semiotic understanding of information, the relationship of information to power and the future of information education. This Festschrift seeks to celebrate Rafael Capurro’s important contribution to a global dialogue on how information conceptualisation, use and technology impact human culture and the ethical questions that arise from this dynamic relationship.
