À quel type d’ontologie fait-on appel lorsqu’on affirme que le capitalisme est une forme d’organisation sociale spécifique et historiquement dépassable ? C’est pour répondre à cette question que nous entreprenons dans cette étude une lecture des Manuscrits économico-philosophiques de 1844. À partir de l’analyse de leur contexte jeune-hégélien d’élaboration comme des enjeux de leur réception dans le marxisme, nous soutenons la thèse selon laquelle Marx s’appuie dans ces manuscrits sur une description critique de l’expérience de l’aliénation pour développer une ontologie processuelle de la société. Cette ontologie conjugue une théorie des formes aliénantes qui structurent le monde social (argent, division du travail, propriété privée) à une théorie du contenu aliéné sous ces formes (forces et objets essentiels, nature et être générique). Le modèle critique qui se dégage ainsi – que nous proposons de qualifier de « critique ontologique du capitalisme – a produit de profonds effets sur les différentes tentatives accomplies, de Herbert Marcuse à Louis Althusser et de Georg Lukács à Antonio Negri, pour conférer au projet d’une transformation radicale de la société l’ontologie qu’il mérite. Et c’est par l’évaluation de ces effets qu’il est possible de poser à nouveaux frais la question des ruptures et des continuités entre les Manuscrits de 1844 et Le Capital. / What type of ontology is mobilized when one asserts that capitalism is a form of social organization which is specific and can be historically overcome? In order to answer this question, we proceed in this study to a reading of the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844. Starting with an analysis of their young-Hegelian context of elaboration as well as of the stakes of their reception within Marxism, I argue that Marx in these manuscripts builds upon a critical description of the experience of alienation to develop a processual ontology of society. This ontology combines a theory of the alienated forms that structure the social world (money, division of labour, private property) and a theory of the content alienated under these forms (essential forces and objects, nature and species-being). The critical model that emerges here – which can be described as a “critical ontology of capitalism” - has produced profound effects on the different attempts by theoreticians, from Herbert Marcuse to Louis Althusser and from Georg Lukács to Antonio Negri, to confer to the project of a radical transformation of society the ontology it deserves. And it is by the evaluation of its effects that it become possible to formulate anew the question of the ruptures and continuities between the Manuscripts of 1844 and Capital.

abstract: The presence of language minority students in American schools is a growing phenomenon in present-day times. In the year 2008, almost 11 million school-age children spoke a language other than English at home. Educational language policy is largely influenced by the attitudes that society holds regarding the presence of language minority speakers in the community. One of the sources of these attitudes is the written press. This research aimed at identifying and analyzing the ideologies that newspapers display in connection with language minority speakers. The underlying assumption of the study was that the English language occupies a dominant position in society, thus creating a power struggle in which speakers of other languages are disenfranchised. Using critical theory as the theoretical framework enabled the study to identify and oppose the ideologies that may reproduce and perpetuate social inequalities. The methodological approach used was critical discourse analysis (CDA) which aligns with the main tenets of critical theory, among them the need to uncover hidden ideologies. The analysis of articles from English-language (The Arizona Republic and the East Valley Tribune) and Spanish-language (La Prensa Hispana) newspapers allowed for the identification of the ideologies of the written press in connection to two main hypothetical constructs: education and immigration. The analysis of the results revealed that the three newspapers of the study held specific ideologies on issues related to the education of language minority students and immigration. Whereas the East Valley Tribune showed an overarching ideology connected to the opposition of immigrant students in schools, the hegemonic position of theEnglish language, and a belligerent stance toward the immigrant community, The Arizona Republic showed a favorable attitude to both English Language Learners and immigrants, based on reasons mainly related to the economic interest of the state of Arizona. La Prensa Hispana, on the other hand, showed ideologies favorable to the immigrant community based on humanitarianism. In summary, the results confirm that newspapers hold specific ideologies and that these ideologies are reflected in the content and the manner of their information to the public. / Dissertation/Thesis / Ph.D. Curriculum and Instruction 2012

Para realizar essa investigação são recobradas discussões concernentes às relações entre determinação, liberdade e pensamento. Em seguida, são pontuadas elaborações teóricas relevantes para o desenvolvimento da lógica em direção as concepções de máquinas computacionais. A partir da computação delineiam-se os momentos de origem e desenvolvimento das ciências cognitivas e da inteligência artificial. Por fim, a pesquisa volta-se ao exame de como a formação do pensamento é impactada pelo uso de tecnologias educacionais que procuram automatizar tanto atividades intelectivas como parte do trabalho docente. / In a historic moment when the computing devices progressively replace the man in the performance of cognitive activities, this research seeks to reflect, through assumptions extracted from the critical theory, derivations, on the process of teaching and learning, the amendments provided education through its incorporation of digital programs aimed at mechanical simulations aspects of human intelligence. To accomplish this research are first retrieved discussions concerning the relationship between determination, freedom and thought. Then they are punctuated relevant theoretical elaborations for the development of logic towards the concepts of computing machines. After arriving computing delineates up times of origin and development of cognitive science and artificial intelligence. Finally, the research back to the examination of how the formation of thought is affected by the use of educational technologies that seek to automate as intellective activities as part of the teaching work.

Nesta dissertação, investiga-se de que maneira, e em que medida, o desenvolvimento de tecnologias sociais pode influenciar a sustentabilidade socioeconômica de coletividades locais em situação de vulnerabilidade social no Brasil atual. Examinam-se contribuições teóricas do campo de estudos que relaciona Ciência, Tecnologia e Sociedade (CTS), tendo em vista a análise de perspectivas acerca da neutralidade da ciência e do determinismo tecnológico. Discutem-se influências recíprocas entre ciência, tecnologia e sociedade, de modo a relacioná-las a contextos socioculturais, políticos e econômicos. Apresentam-se dados que possibilitam ampliar a compreensão das qualidades constitutivas de tecnologias sociais, tendo em vista a geração de uma base de informações na qual é possível localizar, caracterizar e analisar iniciativas de desenvolvimento dessas tecnologias em escala nacional. Foram estudadas tecnologias sociais desenvolvidas no Brasil entre 2001 e 2007, de modo a identificar que tipos de tecnologias são desenvolvidos, como ocorre a distribuição geográfica dessas tecnologias, em que temas os problemas relatados se concentram, que entidades estão relacionadas, quais os parceiros dessas entidades e que coletividades locais estão envolvidas. Os dados foram coletados no sítio do Banco de Tecnologias Sociais (BTS) da Fundação Banco do Brasil (FBB), disponível em www.tecnologiasocial.org.br/bts. A análise dos dados envolveu uma abordagem quantitativa, que foi executada com o auxílio do programa Excel, e uma apreciação qualitativa, com ênfase nos conteúdos das descrições presentes nos dados coletados. Os resultados mostram discrepâncias entre propostas conceituais usuais de tecnologias sociais e iniciativas concretas de implantação, o que leva tendencialmente as iniciativas de desenvolvimento dessas tecnologias a configurarem-se como medidas paliativas, focadas na assistência, fragilizando o enfoque na sustentabilidade. Esta dissertação integra o projeto Repercussões Sociais da Ciência: tecnologia e inovação social (ReSCis). Foi desenvolvida no Laboratório de Divulgação de Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação Social (LaDCIS) e contou com o apoio do CNPq. / This dissertation investigates how and to what extent the development of social technologies can influence the sustainability of local collectivities in the socioeconomic situation of social vulnerability in Brazil today. Examines the theoretical contributions of fields of study that related Science, Technology and Society (STS) in order to analyze perspectives about the neutrality of science and technological determinism. Debates the mutual influences between science, technology and society in order to relate these to sociocultural, political and economic contexts. Presents data that enable a broader understanding of the qualities constitutive of social technologies in order to generate an information base on which to locate, characterize and analyze initiatives to develop such technologies on a national scale. Social technologies developed in Brazil between 2001 and 2007 was studied in order to identify which types of technologies are developed, how is the geographic distribution of these technologies, in whom subjects reported problems are concentrated, which are related entities, which the partners of such entities and that local collectivities are involved. Data were collected at the site of the Banco de Tecnologias Sociais (BTS) of the Fundação Banco do Brasil (FBB), available at www.tecnologiasocial.org.br/bts. Data analysis involved a quantitative approach, which was performed with the aid of software Excel, and a qualitative assessment, with emphasis on content of the present descriptions in the collected data. The results show discrepancies between usual conceptual proposals of social technologies and initiatives deployment that leads the tendency from those development initiatives of these technologies to configure it as palliative measures, focused on assistance, weakening the focus on sustainability.

The problem that my dissertation addresses is the connection between modern reason and the ethical failures of modernity. My project is centered against the background of Enlightenment reason's project of rationalization, from which I argue that modern conceptions of ethics are problematic because they involve an abstraction from the reality of suffering individuals. I take up Adorno's response to this problematic and show that ethical reflection needs to be restored to the physical world of particulars in their damaged state. Philosophically, I press the need to reflect on ethical conditions and the values of our moral theories. My overall objective is to show how an Adornoesque ethics can position us in a critical and resistant mode of thinking within actual sites of suffering and damage in late modern conditions.

O trabalho está dividido em dois momentos, inicialmente analisamos a fundamentação e elaboração do conceito de ideologia na teoria marxiana. Procuramos analisar conjuntamente os principais pensamentos que influenciaram a teoria de Marx a fim de mergulharmos em suas reflexões sobre a ideologia. A ideologia é central em toda sua obra e possui várias implicações conceituais. Durante sua vida e produção, Marx abordou este conceito de formas distintas, provocando, em seu percurso teórico, diferentes leituras. A primeira parte será destinada ao estudo da concepção marxista tradicional sobre o conceito de ideologia e, posteriormente, sua elaboração na teoria da reificação de Lukács, em que são aprofundados certos questionamentos da teoria marxiana e possibilitadas novas abordagens da realidade social. O segundo momento deste trabalho consiste na elaboração e análise do conceito de ideologia para a Teoria Crítica, representada aqui por Horkheimer Adorno e Marcuse. A constituição e o desenvolvimento do conceito na Teoria Crítica caracterizam-se por um aspecto de extrema complexidade e heterogeneidade. Inseridos no Instituto de Pesquisa Social, o estudo destes teóricos podem ser abordados singularmente, mesmo que muitos trabalhos realizados tenham nascido de parcerias e de preocupações a partir de uma mesma problemática. A ideologia era enfocada num primeiro momento, em seu aspecto marxista tradicional como esfera da dissimulação da dominação, graças ao encobrimento da materialidade. Diferentemente, no segundo momento do trabalho, analisado aqui através dos teóricos frankfurtianos, a ideologia passou a ser abordada de acordo com parâmetros qualitativamente... / The present study intends to investigate specific aspects of the ideology concept transformation elaborated initially by Karl Marx in relation to the approach promoted later in 20th century by Critical Theory. This study is divided into two moments and initially we analyzed the principles and elaboration of the ideology concept within Marxist theory. We investigated the main thoughts that influenced Marx’s theory in order to go deeper in his specific analyses on the ideology concept. The theory of the ideology is central in all his work and holds several conceptual implications. During his life and production, Marx approached this concept in different ways, provoking, in his theoretical course, different readings. The first part will be destined to the study of the traditional Marxist conception on the ideology concept and, later, its elaboration in the theory of reification of Lukács. Certain discussions of Marxinian theory will be deepened and new approaches of social reality will be possible. The second moment of this study consists of the elaboration and analysis of the ideology concept for the Critical Theory, here represented by Horkheimer, Adorno and Marcuse. The constitution and the development of the concept in Critical Theory are characterized by an aspect of extreme complexity and heterogeneity. Placed at the Institute of Social Research, the study of these theoretical researchers can be approached singularly, even if many accomplished works have been born from partnerships and from apprehensions starting from a same problem. The ideology was focused in a first moment, in its traditional Marxist aspect as sphere of the dominance dissimulation, credited to the covering of the materiality. Differently, in the second moment of this study, investigated here through the Frankfurtians, the ideology started to be approached according to different qualitative...

abstract: The concept of recognition developed through the 20th century as a form of political legitimation has served a central if problematic role in understanding international politics. On the one hand, recognition aims toward establishing essential collective identities that must be conceived as relatively stable in order to then gain respect, receive political protection, and occupy both physical and discursive space. On the other hand, recognition tacitly accepts a social constructivist view of the subject who can only become whole unto itself – and in turn exercise positive liberty, freedom, or agency – through the implied assent or explicit consent of another. There is an inherent tension between these two understandings of recognition. The attempt to reconcile this tension often manifests itself in forms of symbolic and systemic violence that can turn to corporeal harm. In order to enter into the concept, history, politics and performativity of recognition, I focus on what is often viewed as an exceptionally complex and uniquely controversial case: the Israel-Palestine conflict. Undergoing a discourse analysis of three epistemic communities (i.e., the State/diplomatic network, the Academic/intellectual network, the Military-Security network) and their unique modes of veridiction, I show how each works to construct the notion of ethno-nationalism as a necessary political logic that holds the promise of everything put in its right place: Us here, Them there. All three epistemic communities are read as knowledge/power networks that have substantial effect on political subjects and subjectivities. Influenced by the philosophy of Hegel and Levinas, and supported by the works of Michel Foucault, Wendy Brown, Alphonso Lingis, Jacques Derrida, Patchen Markell, and others, I show the ways in which our current politics of recognition is best read as violence. By tracing three discursive networks of knowledge/power implicated in our modern politics of recognition, I demonstrate forms of symbolic violence waged against the entire complex of the Israel-Palestine conflict in ways that preclude a just resolution based on mutual empathy, acknowledgment, and (re)cogntion. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Political Science 2016

abstract: Vivid illuminations of the aristocratic hunt decorate Bibliothèque nationale de France, MS. fr. 616, an early fifteenth-century illuminated manuscript of Le livre de chasse composed by Gaston Fébus, Count of Foix and Viscount of Béarn (1331-1391 C.E.), in 1389. Gilded miniatures visualize the medieval park, an artificial landscape designed to facilitate the ideal noble chase, depicting the various methods to pursue, capture, and kill the prey within as well as the ritual dismemberment of animals. Medieval nobles participated in the social performance of the hunt to demonstrate their inclusion in the collective identity of the aristocracy. The text and illuminations of Le livre de chasse contributed to the codification of the medieval noble hunt and became integral to the formation of cultural memory which served as the foundation for the establishment of the aristocracy as different from other parts of society in the Middle Ages. This study contributes new information through examination of previously ignored sources as well as new analysis through application of critical theoretical frameworks to interpret the manuscript as a meaning-making object within the visual culture of the Middle Ages and analysis of the illuminations reveals the complexities surrounding one of the most important acts of performance for the medieval elite. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation History and Theory Of Art 2017

Based on the analysis of such curriculum, the aim is to check the accuracy of the categories of Critical Geography, in order to test how the concept of criticism is applied, as well as unveil politics questions that come up in the shape of such investigation. Its theoretical background are the subsidies offered by Critical Theory and by scientific developing of this way of thinking, to the educational and curriculum area. / A presente pesquisa tem como objeto o currículo de geografia do Ensino Médio da rede pública estadual paulista, mais especificamente do seu referencial teórico. Com base na análise dos documentos que compõem o referido currículo, pretende-se aferir o rigor da utilização de categorias da Geografia Crítica, tendo por objetivo verificar como o conceito de crítica, associado a um ideal de autonomia e liberdade, é propugnado no discurso curricular. A hipótese trabalhada é a de que, através de uma disputa dos significados, se estabelece um processo de reconceituação de concepções progressistas de educação – processo que se evidencia no desvelar de questões políticas obtusas, vindas à tona no decorrer da investigação. A pesquisa se desenvolve teoricamente à luz dos subsídios oferecidos pela Teoria Crítica e pelos desdobramentos científicos dessa corrente do pensamento para a área da educação, mais especificamente para a pesquisa em currículo escolar.
