The aim of this essay is to show that the dialogue Sophist displays to us the mature conception of Forms in Plato’s philosophy. Such a conception differs in several important aspects from the initial conception of Forms presented in the so-called middle dialogues, especially in the Books V-VII of the Republic. In order to do so, my argumentative and rhetorical strategy consists in making the contrast between the image of the divided line explicitly proposed by Plato in the Republic as a symbol of that initial conception with the image of the tree of Forms as the symbolic image of the mature conception. Although not directly proposed by Plato, such an image, derived from Porphyry’s Isagoge, directly stems from the division method worked out in the Sophist. Through the contrast between these two symbolic images, I present initially the differences between the conceptions of Forms inscribed in the image of the divided line and the image of the tree of Forms. Next, I present two fundamental differences between these conceptions. The first concerns two distinct images of the dialectic present in the Republic and in the Sophist. The second consists in the erasure of the fundamental difference between dianoia and nous in the Republic, giving place to the supremacy of the dianoia in the Sophist. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the context of the restoration of Athenian democracy in the 4th century BCE, Isocrates and Plato established two of the most prominent philosophical schools of antiquity and certainly the two most important ones of the Classical Period. To some extent influenced by Socratic morality focused on the debate of virtues, both were radical opponents of the sophists of their time and the previous century, who, according to them, promoted an eristic education that is sometimes immoral and sometimes flattering. With the aim of offering new pedagogical alternatives for the political formation of the youth, both Isocrates and Plato propose, under the label of philosophia, models of paideia oriented towards the common good, justice, and integrity. However, there is a fundamental ideological dispute surrounding each of these philosophies. In order to oppose sophistic rhetoric, the idealism of Platonic philosophy, as we know, employs the dialectical method so that true knowledge (episteme) of moral virtues can be attained, thus promoting justice and the common good of the polis. Isocratic pragmatism, on the other hand, outlines philosophy as a paideia of civic discourse (logoi politikoi), in which only good opinions (doxai) would be capable of better guiding the city with reasonableness for the actions to be taken, to the detriment of Platonic episteme which would serve no purpose for politics. Therefore, we will discuss these and other aspects of this ideological dispute between Isocrates and Plato, seeking to verify how this quarrel occurs throughout the texts attributed to them, as well as to point out to what extent the relationship between their philosophical doctrines was determinant for the contours of Philosophy and Rhetoric in posterity.

Ubiquity of new technologies is evident, and regulation is always presented as a solution for all potential threats they can bring in domains like privacy, democracy, and even human autonomy. This paper aim is to identify components that should be considered in regulating new technologies. The hypothesis is that the decision related to who should regulate distinct aspects of the development and usage of new technologies should be grounded in the understanding of those mandatory components of a regulatory system. The paper is developed according to the critical dialectic method and bring a descriptive and prescriptive analysis. It concludes that regulation that disregards the indicated components will be inevitably ineffective. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We present the fictional universe of Fernando Canto, from Amapá, as a way of highlighting and expanding, in a crossed (hybrid) perspective, political conceptions between utopia and dystopia. For this, in a historical conception, we problematize in the short story O bálsamo (1995) the representation of the native and the colonizer, in the lands of the men with one eye; welcomed as the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. Establishing a parameter between seduction, manipulation and resistance, the article is divided into three moments. In the first one, a dialectic between utopian and dystopian thought is punctuated, and then placed within narrative fiction. In the second, the poetic elements of balm and silk are explored - embraced as devices of seduction/manipulation, which opens up the possibility of exploring the categories of power, oppression and control. At the last moment, the category of bare life is brought closer to the process of involution of the natives, and then it is announced that, in those lands of Amazonian natives, saying no brought about a resistance against the narrative/anti-democracy of the strange silk dresses. The theoretical dialogue is constituted, above all, from the thought of Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben and Teixeira Coelho. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The research groups linked or not to institutionality, aim at an effective knowledge production in a specific field and at a certain time, besides motivating their participating members' epistemological choices intensity and, necessarily, emphasize or develop a methodology or several of them, with methods and techniques to carry out the challenges of theoretical and material production. Consequently, came the question: What methodology(ies) are there in the teaching, research, and extension actions of the Research Group in Popular Extension (Extelar), which can constitute its brand? The answer is that there is a specific methodology in its activities development guided by theoretical categories: movement, contradiction, and criticism, in the dialectic search for civilizing advances in society. Based on the group's practical actions and theoretical studies, the text aims to present and specify this methodology and reflect on its components. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The logging circuit is a major ingredient in Amazon income. This sector, which has long been responsible for high levels of exploitation of natural and social resources, in recent years has faced a new production pattern on the periphery, the overexploitation of the workforce, an element present in the production structure of several productive circuits in the Amazon, as in the logger, our object of analysis. The overexploitation of the workforce has been responsible for the alarming levels of social marginalization in the region, and thus, in peripheral development. The article analyzes aspects of the overexploitation of the workforce observed in the logging circuit of the municipality of Nova Esperança do Piriá, located in the northeast of Pará. The logical-historical and dialectical method was used to understand the contradictions that involve production in this circuit. As methodological procedures, field research was used, with unstructured non-nominal dialogued interviews with former businessmen of the sector, photographic records, in addition to data analysis from CAGED and RAIS. The performance of this circuit, operating from the overexploitation of the strength of the working masses, does not allow for a better quality of local life, as it concentrates income and wealth, thus being rooted in regional peripheral development.

Brazilian municipalities have increasingly claimed a more relevant role in the issue of public security. According to IBGE data, most Brazilian municipalities have employed their civil guards in ostensible policing to repress crime. It is interesting to note that this activity has been carried out in spite of the constitutional command, given that art. 144, §8° of the Magna Carta restricts the action of the municipal force to the protection of its patrimony. However, despite the normative issue, the fact is that municipal civil guards have carried out a risky activity, such as that of police officers, without enjoying, however, a series of rights reserved for them, among which special retirement stands out. This situation, which crystallized after the judgment of Theme 1.057 of the STF, when the Court denied the aforementioned right to the civil guards, imposing a situation of flagrant inequality between them and the members of the public security forces. Therefore, this work proposes to discuss, through the dialectical method, the role of the Judiciary, from the perspective of the Democratic State of Law, in ensuring the maximum effectiveness of fundamental rights, even if lacking infralegal regulation, in the sense of promote the correction of social inequalities and build a more just and egalitarian society.

The status of realism in Foucault, despite being insistently elaborated, remains elliptical - in part thanks to its association with a set of propositions we could call fictionalist. By reading the texts where Foucault addresses the interarticulation of fiction, universalism and facticity, the article proposes a non-realist reading of his work, which is marked by the refusal not of the real as an object, but of its ontological evidence. Initially, it presents the insufficiencies of the interpretations that demand an ontology, such as Paul Veyne's, as well as of those that replace it with the exceptionality of creation, such as Michel de Certeau's, and the most promising approach to the reading proposed by Giorgio Agambem.. Next, it examines in detail the question of literature as a methodological paradigm, especially in Foucault's references to the work of René Char. Finally, it shows in which sense the enunciation of archeogenealogy's discourse is closer to Fichte's (non)realism - in its unlikely encounter with Blanchot - than to Hegelian dialectics.

The principle of insignificance, as a mechanism for excluding material typicality, is brought on with the purpose of preventing conducts that do not offend or do not have the capacity to effectively offend the legal-criminal good, from being criminalized. As a result of the principle of offensiveness in criminal law, it is understood, in Brazilian jurisprudence, that insignificance depends on the following requirements for it to be recognized in the specific case: minimal offensiveness of the conduct, no social dangerousness of the action, reduced degree of reprehensibility of the conduct and inexpressiveness of the legal damage caused. The group of so-called "accumulation crimes", or "cumulative crimes", is identified when, despite the fact that the conducts considered individually are harmless to the legal good, if added together, they will cause effective damage, thus making criminal law "step forward" in its protection. Based on these concepts, this article, using the dialectical method and bibliographic and jurisprudential research, aims to investigate the possibility of applying the principle of insignificance to environmental crimes of accumulation, notably in relation to those contained in Law 9.605/1998. After all, would the environmental crimes of accumulation be compatible with the principle of insignificance, in the terms in which this principle is treated by the national jurisprudence? If the answer is affirmative, what would be the criteria for the exclusion of material typicality, considering that it is inherent to the crime of accumulation the fact that a single conduct, by itself, would not be capable of effectively offending the legal good?

The article seeks to review the epistemological foundations that allowed the emergence of Folkcommunication, formulated in the 1960s by Luiz Beltrão, from the folklore studies. More specifically with one of its aspects: the dialectic folkloristics, whose great exponent was Edison Carneiro and who had the readings of Antônio Gramsci as a matrix of thought. In this work, we explore the various possible understandings for the term folklore – demarcating, in the process, our working definition. Then we discuss the reasons why certain terms proposed as substitutes are insufficient to account for the scope of the phenomenon. Finally, we outline the similarities between Carneiro and Beltrão, showing how the sensibilities evoked by this text are not foreign to the field of Communication: the understanding of traditional popular culture as an element of criticism and commentary, resistance and transformation.

The paper discusses the dialectical theory of information as a logic and method to criticize technological fetishism. The new technologies do not remodel the class struggle, although they are central to understand contemporaneity. In order to overcome liberal naivety, we rescued the theories of Marxists such as Álvaro Vieira Pinto and Anthony Wilden through a bibliographical research. The dialectical perspective of open systems exposes the universality of information and communication, not only for the capitalist mode of production, but for the totality of reality, where capital has become the ultimate mediator of the social relations of production.

In the territories spanning Brazil's Goiás and Tocantins states as well as the Federal District, the urban network has acquired simple and complex spatial forms. Its initial basic pattern has been replaced by a complex one through the introduction of new forms, such as Goiânia, Brasília and Palmas. These centres have become intersecting points in the network, responsible for the rupture of the previous pattern and the emergence of new ones via the differentiation between major centres and their flows, with specific inner and outer means of integration that lead to the network's fragmentation and disintegration and the resulting restructuring of its segments. This article reveals temporal and spatial dynamics that enable the identification of old and new, simple and complex, endogenous and exogenous spatial forms; such forms are indicative of political, economic, and sociocultural processes that express the movement and changes of socio-spatial formation, hence altering and renewing spatial forms, including urban networks. The latter emerge as a unified and fragmented materiality, liable to be analysed through the complex dialectic between processes and forms as well as by the explanatory capacity of the integration-fragmentation and disintegration-restructuring dualisms.

This article presents blended education as a historical trend in Brazil and Portugal. The analysis is based on two main researches: the doctoral thesis of the first author, which deals with the process of institutionalization of Brazilian public Distance Education (DE); and the sandwich doctorate period also carried out by the first author within the scope of the Open University of Portugal (UAb). As a result, we propose blended education as a historical trend in the two countries analyzed. Our contribution to the theme concerns, above all, the use of dialectics as a conceptual instrument for the analysis of the phenomenon. Therefore, as the main result, we defend that the historical-social conditions, together with the movement of greater understanding of the subjects in the face of what surrounds them, tends to culminate in more hybrid scenarios in which the still persistent dichotomies between distance education and face-to-face education are overcome.

The research analyzed the proposal for mining in indigenous lands that is the object Project of Bill n. 191/2020 and the constitutional imposition of hearing from the affected traditional communities. This legislative initiative took place in the midst of debates on the implementation of the means to fulfill the commitments assumed in the Regional Agreement on Access to Information, Public Participation and Access to Justice in Environmental Affairs in Latin America and the Caribbean, which was signed in the city of Escazú, Costa Rica. The right to information on environmental matters, as well as the resulting right, which is democratic popular participation in the construction of environmental norms. The study aimed to understand whether the Teoria Neoinstitucionalista do Processo is able to create an environment and enable means for the participation of the people, as a legitimate legal community, in the construction of decisions and norms that govern mining activities in indigenous areas and that aim to sustainability and the promotion of an ecologically balanced environment. It is concluded that only in the process, according to the Teoria Neoinstitucionalista, is it possible to manifest a space of decisibility that provides popular and democratic participation from the creation of rights, through norms and laws, to their incidence in the application, extinction or transformation of rights that deal with the Environment, in particular, the regulation regarding the exploitation of mining in indigenous lands as well as the sustainable development of other potentially polluting activities. The study was developed by the dialectical method and the collected and reconstructed data were analyzed in the perspective of the paradigm of the Democratic State of Law. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper investigates in which circumstances the contamination by the new coronavirus can be considered as an accident at work in Brazil, generating the legal effects resulting from this equation. The deductive method was used, as a method of approach, for the central bibliographic research of the present work combined with the method of qualitative analysis procedure for the study of judgments. The research was subdivided into: the study of the concept of typical work accident provided for in the caput of article 19 of Law n. 8.213/1991 and the hypotheses of labor accident by equivalence provided for in articles 20 and 21 of the same Law, among them, the occupational disease genre and its two species: occupational disease and occupational disease; the decision of the Federal Supreme Court handed down on the occasion of the judgment of Direct Actions of unconstitutionality n. 6342, 6344, 6345, 6346, 6348, 6349 and 6352, which determined the suspension of the effectiveness of article 29 of Provisional Measure 927/2020, which limited the possibility of recognizing covid-19 as an occupational disease, except upon proof of the causal link; Finally, the practical effect of the aforementioned decision was observed, using the dialectical method based on the qualitative study of two judicial processes of great national repercussion, as a result of the research, it was mapped that in only one of the cases covid-19 was equated with the work accident., in this way the understanding of the causal nexus is an essential element for this configuration.

This article aims to present some contributions of phenomenology to the education area. It is intended to first draw an historic perspective about the science crises and the emergence of phenomenology, since we comprehend the importance of technical rationality criticism to understand the thinking of education. The method of narrative bibliography review was used to conduct this study. Nowadays, part of the formal education fallows models based in the technical rationality, that prioritize content and the effectiveness of know-how. The phenomenological education emphasizes (a) singularities of the student; (b) situates educators and students in a dialectic relationship, realizing the importance of amazement with knowledge; and (c) offers, from the pedagogical practices and the experience of each one, an opening for the countless possibilities of being. The emphasis is to imply the technical rationality in the education field, pointing out a perspective in which doing is allied with being and to its possibilities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims to investigate how Social Work in health policy includes welcoming in its theoretical productions. It is characterized as an exploratory study, based on a bibliographic research, with a qualitative approach, fundamental in critical social theory and in the dialectical method of categories. Data collection took place with the survey of productions in the annals of CBAS and ENPESS from 2010 to 2019. Eleven articles were selected, five corresponding to CBAS and six to ENPESS. The productions of the theoretical production on the researched topic, although elaborated, the limits of the study regarding the scarce number found on the theme. It was found that as productions they propose the importance of the welcoming project, focusing on strengthening the humanization project of the Unified Health System (SUS), linked to the critical professional of Social Work. It was also recognized the spaces for the discussion of reception in which it promotes research and the production of knowledge of the category. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims at drawing attention to a series of inquiries that may and, in our view, still should be asked about a supposed, unique and definitive political doctrine of Plato. Then, initially, the following question is raised: The Republic, one of the most famous and commented dialogues written by Plato, would be in fact the only moment of "his" work in which this author would express "his" political theory (communist)? Supported by Hector Benoit's immanentist reading and interpretation of the Platonic dialogues, we hypothetize that Plato, not being Socrates, exposed - through a character called Athenian - in his last dialogue, The Laws, in the temporality of the lexis, a project of city radically different from that on The Republic. Such a project is based on the unity of contradictories for the educational formation of the inhabitants of a city composed of friends who really had all things in common; city that should be put into practice, and not just in the metaphysical soul of the philosopher, as Socrates idealistically proposed in The Republic. Thus, far from having abandoned, as some interpreters argue, his youthful communist positions, Plato would have in fact found them, at the end of his life, in a more rigorously determined way. At the end of our article, Marx and Lenin take on the leading role, which suggests that political theory is one of the guiding threads of the millennial dialectical tradition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Starting from the perceptible conflict between the fantastical determinations of the social referring to the feminine and the woman's desire as a subject who arrives at the clinic materialized in a deep psychic suffering that she seems unable to go through, we question: what would be the elements of the social scene strung in fantasy that point to what we consider representations of the feminine? Thus, we aim to articulate the graph of desire in Lacan with the notion of social fantasy in Zizek to try to answer what would be feminine in fantasy, that is, how the dialectic of desire and the notion of social fantasy can help us to understand the constructions feminine fantasies. For that, we make use of a theoretical investigation focusing on the Lacanian text Subversion of the subject and the dialectic of desire in the Freudian unconscious (1960) and on the text of Slavoj Zizek They do not know what they do -- the sublime object of ideology (1992), without disregard, however, commentators of both theorists mentioned. In this perspective, this study developed the articulation of the concepts -- fantasy, desire, feminine and social fantasy - seeking to organize itself from three questions: 1) How do Zizek's elaborations on ideology as social fantasy help us to understand the dialectic of the desire in Lacan?; 2) How does the Other's desire, as a social one, remain in the subject's fantasy, in order to respond to the fundamental articulation between demand and desire?; 3) Under what reason are the conjunctural elements taken in the structural perspective that compose what we understand by feminine in fantasy? Based on the assertion that society does not exist by itself, the feminine in fantasy could sustain the fantasy of a social order, by fulfilling the function of plugging the holes left by the dissymmetry between the subject and the social.

This article begins with a critical reflection on the risk of insulation of popular movements, their struggles, and the community, popular, and alternative communication developed by them. While potentially enabling political participation and the visibility of popular interest agendas, this communication process is sometimes restricted to the cultural and semantic universe of the popular organizations responsible for this communication. This study aims to contribute to the understanding of the "popular hegemony" category, a theoretical and political mediation that can overcome this condition of isolation and find an emancipatory political common. The central methodological focus of this study refers to a bibliographical research based on critical theory and the dialectical method but it also uses some data from empirical research we have conducted with networks of popular organizations based on documental analysis to show some efforts to meet the common in the struggle for popular hegemony.

The article is a synthesis effort to present a sub-area of sports studies in social sciences in Brazil, called Anthropology of Sportives Practices. It is an expression that articulates the uses of some notions that define the vast field of playful experiences with the contextual production of empirical data. Broad spectrum sociological models that operate notions such as games and sports are put to the test of experiments and extensions of ethnographic models. In this case, the objective is to achieve more discontinuous landscapes in which the meanings of what we define by "to play" and "to watch" - sensitives faculties that orders expressive corporealities - assume a more universal symbolic nexus than properly historical phenomena, such as games, hobbies and sports. The examination of the dialectic between watch and play allows different sportive practices, such as football and a specific Xingu wrestling, analyzed from the point of view of the category "cheers" (fans), to maintain their comparative properties in the difference.

In this third part on the "Transition from arithmetic to algebraic in the teaching of mathematics in high school" we reflect on the term modeling: modeling, in the sense that we use this word, can be based on a non-mathematical system as well as on a mathematical system. The didactic analysis of the curricular perspectives we have outlined reveals problems in the didactics of mathematics that underline the need for very close links, for a tenacious dialectic, which should be everyone's concern, between fundamental research in didactics and the development activities of the teaching system. In contrast, the present situation reveals the great superficiality of which the empirical and dogmatic tradition has made us unfortunate heirs. It is not enough to weaken, decide, and act to solve the problems we are and continue to be faced with. As in other fields, research is no longer that part of the dream in which high-growth societies could offer themselves as a bonus. It is up to it to explore on behalf of all, the avenues of the possible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
