Hoje, esse grupo se propôs a se reorganizar por meio de uma rede de ações e projetos conectados denominada RIDE - Rede Internacional Design/Educação, baseada na UFPE. Esta pesquisa compõe um dos projetos (OC - Olhar Convivial) e colabora para solidificar o novo campo Design/Educação. O acúmulo das experiências, estudos e pesquisas do grupo apontam para o distanciamento da postura do Design como suporte à Educação e sugerem a perspectiva do Design como agente intrínseco à Educação. O território convivial, denominado a partir do conceito de convivialidade de Ivan Illich (1976), é uma zona para elaborar, teoricamente, essa nova perspectiva do design na educação. A sugestão de um território específico para se discutir o ponto de partida da prática do design como ferramenta de ensino-aprendizagem escolar está em consonância com as características do espírito do sujeito pós-moderno e abarca parte dos questionamentos sobre o modelo escolar que temos institucionalizado. A partir do entendimento do espírito do sujeito pós-moderno, da compreensão dos limites do campo de conhecimento do Design da Informação e dos resultados dos estudos que originaram a RIDE, esta pesquisa discute uma nova perspectiva da ação do design na educação propondo a convivialidade como território para a discussão. / For a period of more than ten years, there is a research group that has been bringing together the fields of design and education. Currently, one of the group’s proposals is to organize itself through a network of connected actions and projects named An International Design/Education Network (commonly referred to in Brazil as RIDE) – based at the UFPE. The present work is composed of one the RIDE projects (A Perspective of Conviviality – referred to in Brazil as OC) and helps to consolidate the new field of design/education. The accumulation of experience, studies and research from within the group has led to a change in the way that design has been viewed, i.e. as a support for education, and has suggested that is should be regarded as an intrinsic part of education. The convivial territory, thus termed by taking into account Ivan Illich´s concept of conviviality (1976), is an area in which to elaborate theoretically, this new perspective of design in education. Suggesting a specific territory in order to discuss the starting point of the practice of design as a teaching and learning tool at school is in accordance with the characteristics of the spirit of the post-modern being, and covers some of the questions regarding the school model, which we have institutionalized. From an understanding of the spirit of the post-modern being, and of the limits that the field of information design presents, and from the results of the studies that originated RIDE, this work discusses a new perspective for the action of design in education, proposing conviviality as a territory for discussion to take place.

Ivan Illich: uma aproximação com sua trajetória-obra (1926-1967) / Ivan Illich: an approximation with his trajectory-work (1926-1967)

Leão Neto, Edson Pereira de Souza 07 March 2017 (has links)
O presente trabalho buscou uma aproximação com a trajetória-obra de Ivan Illich entre os anos de 1926-1967. Esse recorte temporal obedece um caminho, que optamos por percorrer, para demonstrar uma característica fundamental do autor: sua produção escrita fortemente atrelada às situações concretas da vida. Esse engajamento de Ivan Illich, que produziu durante esses anos que analisamos ao menos dez textos importantes, foi o eixo estrutural da nossa dissertação. Tratamos de três aspectos simultâneos: lugar na cultura científica, sua trajetória e obra. O primeiro aspecto, aparece no primeiro capítulo na forma de uma análise de prefácios, feitos por intelectuais, para os livros do, ou sobre, Ivan Illich. O leitor encontrará elementos que ajudam na identificação da crítica illichiana. O segundo e terceiro aspectos foram analisados conjuntamente, ou seja, não separamos o autor de sua obra. Isso pode ser encontrado no segundo e terceiro capítulo. Trata-se de uma crítica a institucionalização na sua forma da escolarização da sociedade, na qual o pano de fundo desse processo é a Aliança para o Progresso. Mas também, trata da questão da linguagem como uma forma de crítica da modernidade industrial. / The present work sought an approximation with the trajectory-work of Ivan Illich between the years of 1926-1967. This temporal cut follows a path we have chosen to follow, to demonstrate a fundamental characteristic of the author: his written production strongly tied to the concrete situations of life. This engagement of Ivan Illich, who produced during those years that we analyzed at least ten important texts, was the structural axis of our dissertation. We deal with three simultaneous aspects: place in scientific culture, its trajectory and work. The first aspect appears in the first chapter in the form of an analysis of prefaces, made by intellectuals, for the books of, or about, Ivan Illich. The reader will find elements that help in identifying the Illichian critique. The second and third aspects were analyzed together, that is, we did not separate the author from his work. This can be found in the second and third chapters. It is a critique of institutionalization in its form of schooling of society, in which the background of this process is the Alliance for Progress. But it also deals with the question of language as a form of criticism of industrial modernity.

Les nouvelles technologies au prisme de la notion de convivialité d'Ivan Illich / New technologies through the prism of Ivan Illich’s concept of conviviality

Mayrand, Basile 26 June 2019 (has links)
En plus d’un siècle, la philosophie de la technique a pris un essor considérable. De nombreuses critiques sont venues récemment enrichir notre vision du progrès technologique. Cependant, malgré une grande effervescence intellectuelle autour de ces sujets, l’impact des réflexions philosophiques sur les nouvelles technologies est-il réel ? Cette thèse utilise la notion de convivialité, créée par Ivan Illich (1926-2002), pour interroger les nouvelles technologies. L’intérêt de cette recherche repose sur le présupposé selon lequel les technologies modernes, et les systèmes techniques qu’elles constituent, instancient des valeurs morales souvent de manière implicite. C’est pourquoi, tout au long de ce travail, nous défendons l’idée qu’il est erroné de considérer les nouvelles technologies comme de simples outils moralement neutres. La thèse s’articule autour des trois axes constitutifs du concept de convivialité : la survie, l’équité et l’autonomie créatrice. Nous montrons dans un premier temps en quoi les nouvelles technologies représentent plus un danger pour la survie qu’une opportunité. Dans un second temps, nous découvrons qu’elles menacent également le principe d’équité. Dans un troisième temps, nous démontrons que l’orientation actuelle du développement technologique s’inscrit bien souvent aux antipodes de l’autonomie créatrice. Néanmoins, cette tendance ne paraît pas irréversible par nature. L’espoir d’une réorientation, nous permet de conclure sur l’idée qu’une prise en compte effective de la convivialité dans la conception des nouvelles technologies passe vraisemblablement par l’institutionnalisation du concept, au risque de l’exposer à des effets de contre-productivité. / For more than a century, philosophy of technology has grown significatively. Many critics have enriched our vision of technological progress. However, despite a contemporary intellectual effervescence on these subjects, is the impact of these philosophical reflections on new technologies real? This thesis uses the concept of conviviality, created by Ivan Illich (1926-2002) in the 1970s, to question new technologies, and specifically those often mentioned under the NBIC acronym (nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology and cognitive science). The purpose of this research work is based on the philosophical premise that modern technologies, and the technical systems they constitute, instantiate moral values. Therefore, throughout this work, we defend the idea that it is wrong to consider new technologies as mere morally neutral tools. The thesis is articulated around the three axes constituting the concept of conviviality: survival, justice and self-defined work. We first show how new technologies are more a danger to survival than an opportunity. In a second step, we discover they also threaten the principle of justice as Illich conceives it. Thirdly, we show that the current direction of technological development is often at odds with self-defined work. However, this trend does not seem irreversible per se. The hope of reorientation allows us to conclude on the idea that an effective and sustainable consideration of conviviality in the design of new technologies would passes by the institutionalization of the concept, at the risk of exposing it to the effects of counterproductivity.

Hic et Nunc : forces et limites de l'esprit chez Ivan Illich

Breton, Mahité 12 1900 (has links)
Cette thèse interroge les fondements de la pensée d’Ivan Illich et ses implications pour la manière d’être les uns avec les autres et pour le langage. La pensée d’Illich s’ancre dans une vision singulière de l’être humain en tant que créature qui atteint la perfection en s’engageant dans une relation à l’autre, une relation libre, gratuite, et pleinement incarnée. J’explore les formes que prend cette idée à travers trois grands axes qui traversent l’oeuvre d’Illich : la relation entre soi et l’autre, le rôle des institutions et la pratique du langage. Dans un premier temps, j’examine le geste de pensée d’Illich, c’est-à-dire la manière dont il tente de faire de la quête de vérité une pratique conviviale, entre amis. Il s’inscrit par là en lien avec la figure du Samaritain issue de la parabole des Évangiles, qu’il interprète toutefois de manière très personnelle, hors de la tradition chrétienne. Ce lien étroit au Samaritain ouvre la question du jeu entre la foi et l’intellect dans sa pensée. Dans un deuxième temps, partant de cette interprétation, j’expose la vision du monde et des rapports entre les êtres qui en découlent. Selon Illich, Jésus révèle qu’aucune règle ne peut me dicter qui est mon prochain : je me porte vers lui d’un geste libre et gratuit qui émerge des entrailles, comme celui du Samaritain envers le Juif. Les Évangiles ouvrent ainsi une possibilité inédite d’être les uns avec les autres au-delà des règles d’appartenance à un groupe (clan, ethnie, nation etc). Cette idée particulière amène Illich à percevoir les institutions et les organisations qui structurent la société occidentale comme le résultat d’une perversion de cette relation, puisqu’elles cherchent à garantir, par une structure ou un service, ce qui devait rester une vocation personnelle librement assumée. Pour Illich, c’est en renonçant à toute garantie et au pouvoir dans le monde, que nous pouvons encore être les uns avec les autres à la hauteur de notre vocation de créature. Les réflexions de Jean-Luc Nancy sur l’être-les-uns-avec-les-autres offrent ici un contrepoint qui répond aux intuitions d’Illich et montre à quel point elles débordent la tradition chrétienne en se tenant au plus près de la condition simplement humaine. Enfin, dans un troisième temps, j’aborde le langage comme revers incorporel de cette irréductible condition d’être les uns avec les autres. Selon Illich, la perversion atteint aussi la langue dans laquelle nous nous parlons. Il en retrace l’origine au Moyen-Âge, au moment où émergent la notion de « langue maternelle » et l’idée de l’enseigner. Illich montre néanmoins, par sa pratique et dans ses textes, qu’une parole non ii pervertie continue d’exister, rythmée par le silence de l’ascèse et de l’écoute. Les mots de Paul Celan sur la persistance de la parole dans un monde corrompu rejoignent ici ceux d’Illich, ils les relaient et y répondent : s’ouvre ainsi un riche dialogue sur la possibilité toujours présente, mais jamais garantie, de se parler les uns aux autres. À travers tous ces enjeux, la pensée d’Illich revient sans cesse à la dimension temporelle du hic et nunc, l’ici et maintenant entre nous, difficile à saisir par l’esprit. / This thesis explores the foundations of Ivan Illich’s thinking and its implications for language and for our ways of relating to one another. His thinking is rooted in a singular vision of the human being as a creature who achieves perfection by establishing a relationship that is free and fully incarnate. I explore this fundamental idea through three major lines of thought running through Illich’s oeuvre : relations between self and other; the role of institutions; the practice of language. In the first chapter I examine this vision through Illich’s way of thinking together with friends, a convivially practiced search for truth. He thus places himself in the filiation of the Good Samaritan from the parable of the Gospels. In Illich’s highly personal interpretation, which stands outside the mainstream Christian tradition, this parable bears on the relationship between faith and reason. In Illich’s view, Jesus reveals that no rule dictates who is my neighbor: the Samaritan’s gesture of charity toward the Jew is completely gratuitous and comes from a deeply felt unease (Illich refers to the Hebrew word rhacham, often translated as mercy). In the second chapter I discuss the worldview that results from such an interpretation. For Illich, the Gospels open up a unique opportunity to be with each other beyond the rules that frame various groups (clan, tribe, nation etc). This thinking leads him to perceive the institutions and organizations of Western society as resulting from a perversion of that opportunity, because they seek to guarantee—through a structure or a service—precisely what should remain a freely-chosen, personal inclination. Illich demonstrates that by renouncing any guarantee and power in the world, we can still be with each other and live up to our personal inclination as creatures. Jean-Luc Nancy’s thinking on being-one-with-another offers here a counterpoint to Illich’s intuition and shows how this intuition goes beyond the Christian tradition by fully adhering to the human condition. Finally, in the third chapter, I approach language as the intangible reverse side of the irreducible condition of being with one another. According to Illich, the language we speak has also been corrupted through institutionalization. He traces the origin of this corruption to the Middle Ages, with the emergence of the notion of "mother tongue" and of its transmission via teaching. Through both his practice and his writing, however, Illich shows that uncorrupted speech remains possible, when punctuated by the silence of asceticism and listening. The iv words of Paul Celan on the persistence of speech in a corrupt world relays and responds to Illich’s thoughts on this theme, thus opening a rich dialogue on the possibility—always present, but never guaranteed—to speak with one another. Interwoven throughout these themes is the temporal dimension of hic et nunc, the here and now between us, which constantly surfaces in Illich’s writings yet remains difficult to grasp with the human mind.

La dynamique des réseaux coopératifs. L'exemple des logiciels libres et du projet d'encyclopédie libre et ouverte Wikipédia.

Grassineau, Benjamin 27 January 2009 (has links) (PDF)
Les pratiques organisationnelles et sociales non-marchandes et non-hiérarchiques liées aux nouvelles technologies de l'information et de la communication suscitent aujourd'hui de nombreuses réactions et controverses. Certains acteurs et chercheurs en contestent l'existence, d'autres affirment qu'il s'agit d'un phénomène minoritaire ou non durable, d'autres enfin, les cantonnent à la sphère virtuelle. S'inscrivant dans ces débats, ce travail analyse les différentes approches théoriques qui les sous-tendent, et les confronte à une observation empirique du réseau coopératif des logiciels libres et du projet d'encyclopédie libre et ouverte Wikipédia, en les replaçant dans le contexte idéologique propre à l'activité informatique. En développant un cadre conceptuel adéquat pour l'étude de ces entités sociales qui s'appuie sur l'interactionnisme symbolique et la sociologie critique d'Ivan Illich, cette réflexion dévoile la spécificité organisationnelle, économique et sociale de ces nouvelles pratiques, et expose ce qui a favorisé leur développement et leur croissance au cours de ces trois dernières décennies. L'accent est tout particulièrement mis sur l'intégration des facteurs culturels et sur la compréhension des mécanismes qui favorisent l'essor et l'expansion de ces nouvelles pratiques dans d'autres activités. Au final, cette réflexion rejoint un des questionnements fondamentaux de la société contemporaine, à savoir, celui posé par le développement de l'économie non-marchande et non-hiérarchique et par la déprofessionnalisation des activités immatérielles.

PARADOXES, APORIES ET CONTRADICTIONS AU COEUR DU PARADIGME DU DEVELOPPEMENT DURABLE ETUDE D'UN CHAMP INSTITUTIONNEL DE LA REGION METROPOLITAINE DE RECIFE ET DE LA ZONE DE LA FORET ATLANTIQUE DU PERNAMBOUC, BRESIL

Aubin, Ludovic 12 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Cette recherche vise à confronter les aspects théoriques du paradigme du développement durable avec les formes pratiques qu'il peut prendre à travers l'étude d'un champ régional institutionnel (constitué par des ONG, des entreprises, des organisations publiques et privées) situé dans la Zone de la Forêt Atlantique (Nordeste du Brésil). Plus largement, il s'agit de retrouver, au coeur de ce paradigme, des paradoxes et des apories qui nous disent beaucoup sur les contradictions de nos sociétés contemporaines, notamment sur leur incapacité, semble-t-il, structurelle à s'auto-limiter et les formes conflictuelles que cela génère. Dès lors, c'est sur un questionnement portant sur la relation entre le paradigme du développement durable et la contre-productivité de nos sociétés (dynamique sociétale paradoxale qui se met en place une fois certains seuils critiques dépassés) que débouche cette recherche. Pour ce faire, on aura recours à une double approche : sociologique et anthropologique afin de situer les paradoxes et contradictions du paradigme dans une perspective historique et transversale.

Charles Taylor y la identidad moderna

Cincunegui, Juan Manuel 16 December 2010 (has links)
El propòsit principal d'aquesta tesi és analitzar críticament l'antropologia filosòfica de Charles Taylor.A la primera part abordem qüestions preliminars: les fonts, els fonaments teòrics i els elements metodològics del seu pensament.A la segona part elaborem la seva teoria de la identitat. Això implica: (1) donar compte de la relació inextricable entre el jo de la persona i la seva orientació moral, i (2) per mitjà d'arguments transcendentals, articular una ontologia que determini els trets perennes de la naturalesa humana.Una ontologia de la identitat exigeix l'articulació de les continuïtats i discontinuïtats entre els animals humans i no humans. És a dir, una filosofia de la biologia que aporti les intuïcions de l'aristotelisme al post-darwinisme. En línia amb Adaslair MacIntyre, intentem completar les aportacions realitzades per Taylor en el context de la seva filosofia de l'acció.D'altra banda, identifiquem alguns dels trets distintius de l'agent humà (lingüisticitat, propòsit i dialogicitat), i abordem els desafiaments de (1) les versions que radicalitzen les conseqüències de la contingència del subjecte i (2) els reduccionisme que prosperen entre els filòsofs analítics. Per això hem confrontat a les interpretacions de Richard Rorty sobre Nietzsche i Freud, i a la posició quasi-budista de Parfit, l'hermenèutica forta de Charles Taylor i Paul Ricoeur.A la tercera part, estudiem la dimensió històrica de la identitat humana. Això implica assenyalar les peculiaritats del anthropos modern. Per això, a més de contraposar al jo modern la versió premoderna de la nostra comuna humanitat, hem hagut d'enfrontar a la interpretació de Taylor sobre el sentit de les mutacions cosmovisionales, antropològiques i ètiques de la modernitat, les interpretacions que a aquestes mutacions concedeixen autors com Michel Foucault, Alasdair MacIntyre i Jürgen Habermas. / El propósito principal de esta tesis es analizar críticamente la antropología filosófica de Charles Taylor. En la primera parte abordamos cuestiones preliminares: las fuentes, los fundamentos teóricos y los elementos metodológicos de su pensamiento. En la segunda parte elaboramos su teoría de la identidad. Eso implica: (1) dar cuenta de la relación inextricable entre el yo de la persona y su orientación moral; y (2) por medio de argumentos trascendentales, articular una ontología que determine los rasgos perennes de la naturaleza humana. Una ontología de la identidad exige la articulación de las continuidades y discontinuidades entre los animales humanos y no humanos. Es decir, una filosofía de la biología que aporte las intuiciones del aristotelismo al post-darwinismo. En línea con Adaslair MacIntyre, intentamos completar los aportes realizados por Taylor en el contexto de su filosofía de la acción. Por otro lado, identificamos algunos de los rasgos distintivos del agente humano (lingüisticidad, propósito y dialogicidad); y abordamos los desafíos de (1) las versiones que radicalizan las consecuencias de la contingencia del sujeto y (2) los reduccionismos que prosperan entre los filósofos analíticos. Para ello hemos confrontado a las interpretaciones de Richard Rorty sobre Nietzsche y Freud, y a la posición cuasi-budista de Parfit, con la hermenéutica fuerte de Charles Taylor y Paul Ricoeur.En la tercera parte, estudiamos la dimensión histórica de la identidad humana. Eso implica señalar las peculiaridades del anthropos moderno. Para ello, además de contraponer al yo moderno la versión premoderna de nuestra común humanidad, hemos tenido que enfrentar a la interpretación de Taylor sobre el sentido de las mutaciones cosmovisionales, antropológicas y éticas de la modernidad, las interpretaciones que a éstas mutaciones conceden autores como Michel Foucault, Alasdair MacIntyre y Jürgen Habermas. / The main purpose of this thesis is to critically analyze the philosophical anthropology of Charles Taylor.The first part deals with preliminary issues: the sources, the theoretical and methodological elements of his thought.In the second part we elaborate his theory of identity. This implies: (1) to account for the inextricable relationship between the self of the person and his moral orientation, and (2) by means of transcendental arguments, to articulate an ontology that determines the perennial features of human nature.An ontology of identity requires the articulation of the continuities and discontinuities between human and nonhuman animals. That is, a philosophy of biology which provides insights from Aristotelianism to post-Darwinism. In line with Adaslair MacIntyre, we try to complete the contributions made by Taylor in the context of his philosophy of action.On the other hand, we identify some of the distinctive features of human agency (language, purpose and dialogue) and tackle the challenges of (1) versions that radicalized the consequences of the contingency of the subject and (2) the reductionism that thrive among the analytical philosophers. So we confront the interpretations of Richard Rorty about Nietzsche and Freud, and the quasi-Buddhism of Parfit, with the strong hermeneutics of Charles Taylor and Paul Ricoeur.In the third part, we study the historical dimension of human identity. That means pointing out the peculiarities of the modern anthropos. Therefore, in addition to contrast the modern self with the premodern version of our common humanity, we confront Taylor's interpretation of the meaning of the cosmological, anthropological and ethical mutations of modernity, with the interpretations that authors as Michel Foucault, Jürgen Habermas and Alasdair MaIntyre offer about these mutations.
