O paradigma vigente valoriza o consumismo fundamentado na exploração de recursos naturais e do trabalho humano, e na crença do poder da tecnologia e do conhecimento científico para remedição de problemas que se originam nesse processo. A inexistência de repertório de significações reduziu esta profunda crise civilizatória a crises desconexas e disjuntas, as quais chamamos de crise da saúde, transporte, segurança, ambiental, entra tantas outras crises que possamos mapear. Neste contexto, esta tese busca analisar os processos que acreditamos serem os responsáveis por esta visão hegemônica de mundo que é descontextualizada, redutora e disjunta. Traçamos uma linha histórica dos processos e relações que nos levaram, enquanto sociedade, a acreditar que vivemos uma crise ambiental (usando, como tema gerador, as mudanças climáticas) e não uma crise civilizatória. Intentou-se evidenciar que nossas relações sociais, numa sociedade voltada para o consumo, é a grande gestora desta sociedade de risco, determinada pelos paradigmas dominantes que nos levam a crer no poder determinístico da ciência e na edificação de uma sociedade em equilíbrio. Em contraposição a este pensamento afirmamos com base em diversos autores, que vivemos em um mundo que não é estático, não está em equilíbrio e nem é determinado a priori, mas sujeito a processos termodinâmicos, caóticos e irreversíveis que desencadeiam desestabilizações nos ambientes e consequentes processos de auto-organização, compondo os sistemas complexos adaptativos de aprendizagem, tanto nos organismos de Gaia, quanto nos sujeitos, nas relações entre os sistemas bióticos e abióticos, nas sociedades, na economia, na política e em nossa cultura. Como resistência a esta visão hegemônica de mundo propomos um método de abordagem contextualizado deste problema, através da construção de campos de significados que retratem esta crise de forma contextualizada associando este tema ao cotidiano do sujeito. Este processo foi desenvolvido através da abertura de ambientes de convivência relacionais baseados no compartilhamento de experiências. Mostramos também a importância da abordagem teórica ser associada ao dia-a-dia do sujeito, pois cada indivíduo vê seu mundo através de suas experiências, história de vida, seu background. Abrimos possibilidades de provocar estímulos no limite do caos capazes de desestabilizar este sujeito ao ponto de tirá-lo do equilíbrio e provocar novas emergências, que ressignifiquem este sujeito em relação a seu mundo. Ativa-se sua vontade de potência para atuar significativamente em seu meio, compartilhando o campo organizacional com as demais esferas da sociedade, para juntos construírem um ambiente, uma cidade sustentável, entendida como um sistema complexo adaptativo de aprendizagem. / Currently, contemporary society is mired in a crisis of social relations arising from our immersion in the paradigm of science and the market, which sits in the valuation of human beings by what it consumes and can display to the detriment of the being itself. The paradigm values consumerism based on the exploitation of natural resources and human labor, and the belief in the power of technology and scientific knowledge for the problems’ remediation that originate in that process. The lack of significations repertoire reduced this profound civilizational crisis to disconnected and disjoint crises, to which we call health, transport, safety, environmental crisis, these are some between so many other crises that we can map. In this context, this thesis aims to analyze the processes that we believe to be responsible for this hegemonic vision of the world that is decontextualized, simplistic and disjointed. We drew a line of historical processes and relationships that led us, as a society, to believe that we live in an environmental crisis (using as a generator theme, the climate change) and not a civilization crisis. Our social relations brought to evidence that a society geared to consumption, is a great manager of this risk society, determined by the dominant paradigms that lead us to believe in the deterministic power of science and building of a society in balance. In contrast to this thought, based on several authors, we affirm that we live in a world that is not static, nor is in equilibrium and not at all determined a priori, but subject to chaotic and irreversible thermodynamic processes, that will trigger destabilization in the environments and consequent processes of self-organization in a complex adaptive learning process, both in the Gaia organizations, as in the subject, in the relationship between biotic and abiotic systems, societies, economics, politics and in our culture. As a resistance to this hegemonic vision of the world we propose a contextualized approach method to this problem by building field of meanings that portray this crisis in a contextualized and complex way associating this theme to the daily life of the subject. This process was developed through the opening of coexistence relational environments based on shared experiences. We also stress the importance of theoretical approach to be associated with the subject’s daily life, since every individual sees his world through its own experiences, life story and background. Thus, we open possibilities of provoking stimuli on the edge of chaos to destabilize this subject to get it out of balance and provoke new emergencies, which resignifies this subject in relation to his world. Thus, activating his will power to act meaningfully in their midst, sharing the organizational field with the other spheres of society, to together build an environment, a sustainable city, understood as a complex adaptive learning system.

Patočka and Modernity Jakub Homolka Abstract: This thesis deals with the work of Jan Patočka (1907-1977), probably the most important Czech philosopher of the twentieth century, and with his understanding of modernity. More precisely, the thesis focuses on Patočka's work from the perspective of contemporary civilizational analysis, which leads our attention especially to Patočka's dialogue with the work of the German sociologist Max Weber (1864-1920). The thesis is divided into three parts. The first part introduces Patočka's work in general; it summarizes the situation of Patočka's heritage, subsuming existing findings and future challenges. The second part discusses the perspective of civilizational analysis, a subdiscipline of contemporary historical sociology, and explains the link between this field of research and Patočka's work. Finally, the third part presents an interpretation of Patočka's work which emphasizes the very perspective of civilizational analysis: the focus is on Patočka's dialogue with Weber's work, which is most notably expressed in the philosopher's idea of "rational civilization". In this way, the thesis contributes to the existing interpretations of Patočka's work as well as to the discussions of the theoretical concept of civilizational analysis. Key words: Jan Patočka; Max Weber;...

Thesis "The Orthodox civilization? Genesis of Russian political religion through the prism of civilizational analysis" has a historico-theoretical character. It presents an analysis of origins and evolution of two most important Russian ideologies which were expressed in religious terms. Using the civilizational perspective and by reconstructing of factual and mental context of two Russian ideologies, this thesis polemizes with religious determinant of Russian civilization. Instead, it establishes an issue of religio-political nexus, which seems to be more successful for thinking about civilizational specifics of Russia. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

[pt] O objetivo do presente trabalho é discutir as propostas estéticas dos modernismos de Mário de Andrade e de Almada Negreiros como respostas específicas a uma experiência de crise civilizacional. Este entendimento do seu tempo como período de viragem histórica suscitou diferentes propostas baseadas em expectativas diversas de futuro. Esta abordagem parte do pressuposto de que a representação artística se apresenta de forma intimamente relacionada à percepção do espaço e sua relação com os corpos. O modernismo, como forma simbólica, está intimamente relacionado com uma alteração significativa da percepção espaço temporal. Entretanto, essa dialética entre movimento artístico (modernismo) e experiência de espaço (modernidade) produziu na crítica literária uma avaliação do modernismo como uma resposta cultural à experiência da modernidade. Essa leitura relaciona-se com uma visão da modernidade como uma linha contínua de avanços tecnológicos, sociais, econômicos, etc., que surgem em centros e se espalham em direção à periferia. A partir desta interpretação produziram-se conceitos como modernismo tardio, modernismo periférico ou atraso cultural. A análise se propõe a situar as doutrinas e práticas estéticas agrupadas sob o conceito de modernismo em relação a conjunturas internas de cada país e a conjunturas internacionais num complexo mapa de coordenadas geopolíticas. Para isso, a Tese se estrutura em quatro pilares fundamentais de sustentação: Modernos, modernidades e modernismos; Futurista?! Em busca de uma expressão moderna de nacionalidade; Modernismos em modernidades incipientes: a insuficiência de invenções características da segunda revolução industrial nas narrativas romanescas de Mário de Andrade e Almada Negreiros; Modernismos e Estados Novos: os projetos de transformação cultural na esfera política do Salazarismo e do Varguismo. A partir destes pontos, o trabalho se pretende a associar o modernismo, não como uma dinâmica que surgiu no centro e se espalhou pela periferia como aplicação de um discurso estrangeiro, mas antes como a constituição de uma problemática impulsionadora de questionamentos diversos nas instâncias de entrecruzamento da cultura, da política e da arte. / [en] Modernisms in incipient modernities: Mário de Andrade and Almada Negreiros. The objective of the present work is to discuss the modernist aesthetical proposals from Mário de Andrade and Almada Negreiros as specific responses to an experience of civilizational crisis. This understanding of the time as a period of historical shift produced different proposals based on diverse expectations of future. This approach is based on the prerogative that the artistic representation presents itself intimately related to the perception of space-time and its relations with the bodies. The modernism, as symbolic form, is intimately related to a significant change in space-time perception. However, the dialetic between artistic movement (modernism) and experience of space (modernity) produced in the literary critique an evaluation of modernism as a cultural response to the experience of modernity. This reading in related to a understanding of modernity as a continuous line of technological, social and economical advances that occurred in centers and spread to the peripheries. From this interpretation concept such as late modernism, peripheral modernism and cultural delay were produced. The present analysis intend to situate the doctrines and aesthetical practices grouped under the concept of modernism in relation to the internal conjunctures of each country and the international conjunctures in a complex map of geopolitical coordinates. Thereunto, the Thesis structure itself in four fundamental supporting pillars: Moderns, modernities and modernisms; Futurist?! Searching for a modern expression of nationality; Modernisms in incipient modernities: the insufficiency of characteristic inventions from the second industrial revolution in the prosaic narratives from Mário de Andrade and Almada Negreiros; Modernism and New States: the projects of cultural transformation in the political field of Salazarism and Varguism. From these topics the work intends to associate modernism, not with a dynamic that rise in the centers and spread to the peripheries as application of a foreign speech, but rather as the constitution of a problematic that produced e diverse investigations in the lathing among culture, politics and arts.

La dette écologique est un discours politique qui s'est développé au début des années 90 pour lutter contre le fardeau des dettes financières qui grevait les budgets des États en développement. États et société civile se sont alors appropriés les acquis théoriques et pratiques des sciences économiques et sociales pour contester un ordre du monde inégalitaire et conduisant à la dégradation continue de l'environnement, caractéristique d'un "échange écologiquement inégal". Mais dans la bouche des différents acteurs, la dette écologique a pris des sens différents, si bien que l'on peut dissocier quatre discours de la dette écologique. À chacun de ces discours correspondent un ou plusieurs outils juridiques, outils qui, après analyse, s'avèrent souvent inaptes à valider les prétentions des partisans de la dette écologique. Il apparaît que seule la version communautaire de la dette écologique offre un cadre d'analyse qui soit efficient sans être contre-productif. L'analyse spécifiquement dédiée au régime climatique en droit international confirme ce résultat puisque les normes allant dans le sens d'un accroissement des capacités des populations locales semblent plus à même de réduire la dette climatique. / The ecological debt is a concept which was developed at the beginning of the 90s in order to fight against the burden of financial debts which crippled the budgets of developing States. States and the civil society used the theoretical and practical knowledge developed by researchers in social and economic sciences to criticize an unequal worldorder, leading to continuous environmental degradation and as such, a characteristic of an unequal ecological exchange. For the different actors, the concept of ecological debt took on various meanings so that we can now dissociate four different discourses. For each discourse, we have identified one or more legal mechanism, but most of them often turn out to be unfit to meet the claims of ecological debt advocates. It appears that only the community version of ecological debt is efficient without being counter-productive. Our analysis of the climate regime in international law confirms this result since norms that empower local communities seem more efficient to reduce climate debt.

This thesis outlines some basic approaches in the field of comparative civilizational analysis in the works of Jóhann P. Árnason and Jaroslav Krejčí in the confrontation with Jan Patočka's philosophy of history. Those theoretical bases are put into a wider historical context and historical relations in casuistic studies, narrowed to the civilizational area of the Middle East, especially Mesopotamia and Syria-Palestine and also the Aegean-Greek area. This work emphasizes the inevitable interconnection of generally conceived civilizational analysis, or historical sociology, with specific historiography. Individual detaching of theoretical concepts is understood as a relic of blind reductionism and determinism which is strongly rejected by philosophy of history which tries to focus on the phenomenon of historicity instead of historical chronologies. Nevertheless, without the support of empirical reality even philosophy of history would become a mere philosophical rumination. The connected interdisciplinary approach is the only way how to figure out the historical / civilizational sense, "between the past and the future" and to create continual cultural memory from the awareness of relations to the relation of awareness.
