Grande Aldana, Carlos Alonso. Toward a Realization of Justice(s): Spaces of Contingency. How can it be that after sophisticated efforts are made to conceive of a theory of justice, its realization proves to be the biggest problem? This essay proposes an interpretation that identifies the main problems of modernity that permeate the systemic failures of capitalism and their implications for a realization of justice. Finally, the author reflects on contingency and the consequences of assuming it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

systems of social organisation based on capital accumulation, the different cultural expressions arising from them are influenced by capital accumulation. Consequently, what we research, think, believe and educate is mediated through paremeters based on profit. So, some key pillars on which human beings articulate their thinking and actions are subject to an increasing process of change, gradually consolidated on an scheme of ideas that in this text will be linked to the dominant culture of having, with structuring potential and imposed over another form of culture based on being, what here is related to existential human needs and expressions that go beyond material accumulation. Through theoretical discussion, the aim of this study is to rethink how acculturation mechanisms as important as media or education influence and are influenced by paradigms of thinking which are deeply rooted and related to property as a constituent element. In doing so, we seek to imagine the reconstruction of another form of thinking focused on a wide understanding of human needs and related to intangible and social aspects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This text is dedicated to the analysis of the following phrase, spoken by Lacan: "The word, it's clear, is defined as being the only place where being has meaning. The sense of being presides over having, which excludes epistemic muttering." The article demonstrates in what way a sinthome is constructed and what function it fulfills for the subject.
