Where did we come from? Where are we going? Those are old questions that have incited me toward a complex anthropological knowledge, detached from the imprintings of the official anthropocentric narrative, related to hominization, which irreversibly separated us from the natural world. We took it as an object, domesticated and subdued Nature, creating the Anthropocene. It is in this scenario that we find humankind; thus, Anthropology cannot be unaware of the main occurrences of the Grand Narrative. In search of a Fundamental Anthropology creates a dialog between the works of Edgar Morin and Michel Serres, two incandescent and marginal thinkers who stepped out from the crowd of current scholarship thinkers. Authors of polyphonic ideas, they had produced open and unfinished knowledge, breaking through disciplinary barriers; smuggling concepts; crossbreeding ideas, inventing by thinking. To walk on their shoes, dialog with their narrative and unfold new horizons is to follow them along their path of anthropological knowledge, which reintroduces man into nature; restoring our animality; which contextualizes us into the ecosystem-world that recognizes our biocultural, planetary and cosmic-earthly ascendance, as well as our, at the same time, one and multiple identity, which also contributes to ecologize ideas and actions; which also invests in the ethical rearrangement of the human subject, comprehensively responsible for society and for the Biogea. A well thinking process ecologically intertwined upon the struggles of the Homo complexus universalis oecologicus with himself, the human community and all living things / Quem somos? De onde viemos? Para onde vamos? São antigas questões que me instigam a um saber antropológico complexo desvencilhado dos imprintings da velha narrativa antropocêntrica do processo de hominização que apartou, irremediavelmente, o homem do mundo natural. Tomamos o mundo como objeto, domesticamos e dominamos a natureza, fabricamos o Antropoceno. É nesse contexto que a humanidade se insere, e a Antropologia não pode ficar alheia aos acontecimentos da Grande Narrativa. Em busca de uma Antropologia Fundamental tece um diálogo com as obras de Edgar Morin e de Michel Serres, pensadores incandescentes e desviantes das autoestradas do conhecimento disciplinar. Autores de polifônicas ideias, produziram um conhecimento aberto e inacabado, romperam fronteiras disciplinares, contrabandearam conceitos, mestiçaram saberes, inventaram pensando. Percorrer os seus caminhos, dialogar com suas narrativas, ramificar novos horizontes é prosseguir com ambos nas vias de um saber antropológico que reintroduz o homem na natureza; que restaura sua animalidade; que o contextualiza no ecossistema-mundo; que reconhece sua ascendência cósmica-terrestre, sua identidade una e múltipla, biocultural, planetária; e que também contribui para ecologizar ideias e ações; que investe na recomposição ética do sujeito-humano responsável consigo, com a sociedade, com a Biogea. Um bem-pensar tecido ecologicamente no corpo a corpo do Homo complexus universalis oecologicus consigo, com os outros, com a totalidade dos seres vivos, com a natureza inteira, com o mundo

This new way of representing the objective world brought innovative particularities like the combination of elements such as mental image, double, objective traces and aura in one perception object: photography. Such particularities are found in the concept of photogeny, one of the denominations given to the charm of photographic images, which is examined here based on Edgar Morin s studies. The analysis of the concept of photogeny leads us, in search of precursors, to the idea of aura in Walter Benjamin s writings, showing intersections which are particularly interesting and elucidative of both concepts. In Walter Benjamin s reflections are included phenomena such as crowd, shock and flâneur upon which are based our own reflections on the conditions which caused changes in the perception, receptiveness and response of the growing stimuli resulting from new ways of coexistence and mobility in the metropolis. Another approach related to the charm, the aura and the temporality of the photography, such as the temporal punctum, is integrated into these previous concepts and analyzed with the concept of photogeny. Thus, the purpose of this dissertation is the constitution of a more embracing corpus enabling the understanding of the complexity of the photographic phenomenon. The metropolis, object of the urban photographer, through its physiognomy, plays a major role in this dissertation, showing itself, like on a photograph, as a psychophysical mechanism whose charm dwells in the indistinguishable relation between the objective world and the imaginary / A fotografia de rua ou fotografia urbana, enquanto estilo fotográfico, decorre historicamente não apenas de uma nova instrumentalização proporcionada pelos avanços tecnológicos que se iniciaram na primeira metade do século XIX, mas, sobretudo, das condições sociais que vigoraram a partir desse período.

Essas particularidades encontram uma confluência no conceito de fotogenia, uma das denominações atribuídas ao encanto das imagens fotográficas, que, aqui, é trabalhado tomando por base a trabalho de Edgar Morin. A análise do conceito de fotogenia remete-nos, na busca por precursores, à noção de aura em Walter Benjamin e apresenta interseções particularmente interessantes e elucidativas para ambos os conceitos. Nas reflexões deste último autor, que incluem os fenômenos da multidão, do choque, do flâneur, baseiam-se nossas análises sobre as condições que provocaram alterações na percepção, receptividade e resposta aos estímulos crescentes originados pelas novas formas de convivência e mobilidade na metrópole. Outra abordagem relacionada ao encanto, a aura e a temporalidade na fotografia, como o punctum temporal, é integrada às concepções anteriores e analisada em conjunto com a concepção de fotogenia.

A metrópole, objeto do fotógrafo urbano, através da sua fisionomia e fisiognomia, ocupa um papel central nesta dissertação, revelando-se, como em uma fotografia, um mecanismo psicofísico, cujo encanto possui a sua base na relação indistinguível entre o mundo objetivo e o imaginário

Entre avril et juin 2008, le prix des commodités (blé, maïs, riz) a atteint un niveau impressionnant, mais pas exceptionnel. Les populations de 48 pays ont été affectées par une sévère sous-alimentation. La plupart d’entre eux avait déjà été affaiblie par des conflits et des catastrophes naturelles inhabituelles et dramatiques. Ces facteurs ont souvent interagi pour aggraver la situation. Pourtant, si la crise de 2007-2008 a été un «problème extraordinaire», c’est aussi parce que la connaissance scientifique «normale» a échoué face à la complexité de la «poly-crises» alimentaire (Morin, 2011). En réponse, nous avons conçu un cadre épistémologique, méthodologique, et technique, à partir de deux approches face à la complexité, celles de Hayek (1899-1992) et de Simon (1916-2001), avec un objectif, satisfaire au critère de cumulativité, un reproche traditionnellement adressé à ce type d’approche. Ce travail a produit deux enseignements. Premièrement, les fondements épistémologiques de la production de la connaissance en économie doivent être révisés en environnement complexe et incertain: 1) du certain/de l’objectif vers l’incertain/le subjectif; 2) de la prédiction exacte vers la conception; 3) de la causalité linéaire inappropriée, ou pire, menaçant la liberté individuelle, vers une causalité complexe. Deuxièmement, dans le processus d’adaptation, le rôle de la production et du partage de la connaissance «tacite» est central. Pour cette raison, le problème économique n’est plus un problème d’allocation des ressources. Il est de savoir comment des êtres humains aux capacités cognitives «limitées» computent et socialisent (Nonaka et alii, 1994, 2001) la connaissance et l’information disponibles, mais dispersées, pour la convertir en heuristiques ou patterns favorisant l’adaptation. Deux autres hypothèses les renforcent : 1) les dynamiques du changement s’enracinent «dans la pensée et la créativité des gens impliqués dans des situations complexes et dans leur capacité à restructurer leurs propres modèles d’interactions», (Ostrom, 2011) ; 2) l’altruisme réciproque (Simon, 1992, 1993) est un comportement rationnel qui peut être plus efficient dans les interactions sociales en environnement complexe que le comportement maximisateur ou égoïste. Ces résultats ont été synthétisés dans une interface que nous avons créée et qui a pris la forme d’une boucle de la connaissance à deux allèles, une pour la connaissance générique, l’autre, pour la tacite, qui, par récursion, produisent une méta-connaissance. Cette interface est à la fois ouverte et fermée et reflète ainsi la position défendue par Hayek et Simon pour qui la science économique est une «science frontière». Une part de la recherche est consacrée à la création d’outils, par exemple à un indicateur de perception de la contribution des facteurs au déclenchement et/ou à l’aggravation de la crise, à partir : 1) des allocutions des 138 Chefs d’État et de Gouvernement présents à la Conférence de Haut Niveau sur la Sécurité alimentaire mondiale (3-5 juin 2008) ; 2) des analyses des économistes, 3) des témoignages des gens qui ont subi la sous-nutrition ou la hausse des prix des denrées alimentaires (database IRIN). Nous proposons également une typologie actualisée des policy-mix mis en œuvre par 18 pays divisés en 3 groupes : des pays en développement, pour la plupart importateurs nets, sévèrement touchés par la crise et qui ont connu des «émeutes de la faim» (Égypte, Tunisie, Cameroun, Côte d’Ivoire, Sénégal, Mauritanie, Haïti, Bangladesh) ; des pays Membres du groupe de Cairns ayant connu soit des «émeutes de la faim», soit des désordres sociaux (Indonésie, Philippines, Thaïlande, Afrique du Sud) ; enfin, des pays ayant adopté des restrictions et/ou prohibitions aux exportations (Chine, Inde, Indonésie, Égypte, Cambodge, Ukraine, Vietnam) [...]. / Over the April-June 2008 period, prices of the commodities such as wheat, maize, rice and vegetable oils, reached impressive yet not exceptional peaks. By contrast, the populations of 48 countries were stricken by severe under nutrition. Most of them had already been weakened not only by conflicts, social disorders, dramatic and unusual climatic and natural disasters, but also by outbreaks, epizooties, and population displacements. In some cases, all these factors together played a significant role in the worsening situation. However, another important reason could be advanced to explain why the 2008 food crisis was an “extraordinary problem”. This one is that “normal” scientific knowledge was defeated by the complexity of what it appears now as a food “poly-crises” (Morin, 2011). We answered by designing an epistemological, methodological, and technical knowledge base from two very different and alternative economics approaches of facing complexity. The first is the Hayekian approach (1899-1992), and the second, the Simonian approach (1916-2001). The research intends to fulfill cumulativity criteria, traditionally difficult to satisfy with the ones of complexity. From the following analysis we mostly learned two things. First, epistemological grounds of economics needed to be broken in complex environment(s): 1) from certainty/objectivity to uncertainty/subjectivity, 2) from accurate prediction to design, 3) from linear causality deemed inappropriate or, worse, threatening people freedoms, to complex causality. Second, in the adaptation process, the role of “tacit” knowledge production and sharing is central. For that reason, the core of economics problem is not allocation of resources anymore. Now, the main problem for humans whose cognitive capacity are “bounded” is to compute, to “socialize” (Nonaka et alii, 1994, 2001), available but dispersed information and knowledge and to converse them into heuristics or patterns allowing the adaptation to complex and uncertain environment(s). Two others auxiliary hypotheses –E. Ostrom (2011) will endorse them later- can be drawn from that preliminary work: 1) the dynamics of change rooted “in the thinking and in the creativity of people involved in complex situations and their capacity to restructure their own models for interactions”, 2) reciprocal altruism (Simon, 1992, 1993) is a rational behavior which can be more effective in/for the social interactions in complex environment(s) than maximizing or selfish behavior. To present preliminary results in an effective way, we created a very simple interface scheme. It takes the form of a three-dimensional knowledge loop with two strands, “generic” and “tacit” knowledge connected between themselves to produce by recursion a meta-knowledge. We made the choice of the interface because it reflects with the most accuracy the position defended by Hayek and Simon which is that economics is a frontier science. Moreover, the interface has the advantage of being both open and closed. A part of the research is more specifically dedicated to design tools increasing the understanding of the “polyfood” crises. We elaborated a three-level indicator with: 1) perceptions of the contribution of each factor to the outbreak and the worsening of the situation; 2) contributions of actors to the explanation of the food crisis proposed in 2008. It was developed from: 1) a case study comparing and contrasting explanations proposed a) in their statements by 138 Heads of State and Government attended the High Level Conference on World Food Security (3-5 June 2008), b) in their analyses by economists, c) in their testimonies by people hit by under nutrition/rising food prices (database IRIN); 2) a new and more updated typology focused on the responses addressed by 18 countries split into 3 groups [...].

De 1960 à 1982, année du rapatriement de la constitution, le gouvernement du Canada et les gouvernements provinciaux ont été engagés dans la plus longue période de négociations constitutionnelles que le Canada ait jamais connu. Ce mémoire veut mettre en lumière le rôle que Claude Morin, sous-ministre puis ministre des Affaires intergouvernementales du Québec, a joué pendant cette période. Non seulement Morin a été impliqué de près dans les débats sur la constitution pendant les années soixante, mais il a aussi directement influencé le cours des débats dès son adhésion au Parti québécois jusqu'à sa démission en 1982. Le premier chapitre porte sur les événements qui ont mené Claude Morin à devenir le premier sous-ministre des Affaires fédérales-provinciales et, à ce titre, à s'impliquer dans le dossier des négociations constitutionnelles, à la fois par son implication dans le dossier de la formule Fulton-Favreau que par sa participation au comité de la constitution, dont il est le secrétaire. Son influence se fait rapidement sentir, entre autres grâce à la grande liberté que lui laisse Jean Lesage dans la rédaction de ses discours. Dans le deuxième chapitre est analysée l'influence de Claude Morin sur le premier ministre qui devient encore plus grande, malgré un changement de gouvernement. Même si l'Union nationale a des idées précises sur la direction qu'elle veut imprimer à la question constitutionnelle, Morin est plus que jamais au coeur de l'action. Sa présence dans le cercle des proches de Daniel Johnson ainsi que sa participation à la rédaction des mémoires du Québec lors des rencontres avec le gouvernement fédéral et les provinces reflètent son importance. Au troisième chapitre, on voit comment, à peine devenu membre du Parti québécois, Morin remet en question la démarche d'accession à la souveraineté inscrite dans le programme du parti. Cette remise en question va susciter de nombreuses oppositions et être au coeur des débats au sein du parti jusqu'à ce que la proposition de Morin soit partiellement adoptée par le PQ. Très près de René Lévesque au niveau de la pensée politique, Morin force les membres du Parti québécois à définir clairement la démarche d'accession à la souveraineté. Enfin, dans le quatrième chapitre, on étudie le rôle joué par Morin dans ce que l'on appelle communément aujourd'hui les positions traditionnelles du Québec, l'élaboration de la stratégie référendaire ainsi que l'élaboration de la question. Son influence demeure importante malgré la défaite référendaire. C'est l'échec du front commun et le rapatriement de la constitution qui mettra un terme à une carrière dont l'élément central aura été de trouver des moyens pour renforcement et le développement l'État québécois. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Histoire constitutionnelle, Question québécoise, Nationalisme, Mouvement indépendantiste, Claude Morin, 1960-1980.

Esta tese consiste em um estudo sobre a concepção do conhecimento da Geometria nos cursos superiores de Arquitetura. Durante três semestres, desenvolvemos uma proposta de abordagem transdisciplinar no ensino da Geometria Descritiva, junto a seis turmas de estudantes da Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul, que se constituiu no ensino dos conceitos geométricos, compreendidos em suas relações e interdependências com seus entornos histórico / culturais/ filosóficos/ epistemológicos. Aliados a esta postura, introduzimos os conceitos genéricos de solidariedade e criatividade, na forma de migrações conceituais pelos campos geométrico/arquitetônicos, como instrumento instigador do resgate na compreensão da humanidade do conhecimento científico. Discutimos, neste estudo, a receptividade dos estudantes em relação a estas abordagens e às dificuldades verificadas no desenvolvimento destas propostas. Para analisar a concepção de conhecimento advinda destas implementações, utilizamos como referencial teórico o Paradigma da Complexidade, na ótica de Edgar Morin. Finalizando este trabalho, aproximamos as nossas interpretações do conceito de utopia, na perspectiva de Ernst Bloch, na qual encontramos a reafirmação do movimento como componente central dos fenômenos estudados, com a evidência de sua inexorabilidade na compreensão do conhecimento, do ser humano e da vida. / This thesis is a study about the conception of knowledge on Geometry in the graduation programs of Architecture. For three semesters we have developed a proposal of a cross disciplinary approach in the teaching of Descriptive Geometry with six groups of architecture students from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul. The proposal involved the teaching of geometric concepts and their relationships and interdependencies with historical, cultural, philosophical and epistemological contours. Along with such approach, we have introduced generic concepts of solidarity and creativity in the form of conceptual migrations through geometric and architectural fields, as an instigating instrument to rescue the understanding of the humanitarian aspect of scientific knowledge. We discussed, in this study, the receptive attitude from the students in terms of these approaches and the difficulties faced in order to develop them. To analyze the concept of knowledge resulting from such implementations, we used as theoretical background the Paradigm of Complexity, in the view of Edgar Morin. We finally approximated our interpretations to the concept of utopia, in the perspective by Ernst Bloch, in which we found the reaffirmation of movement as the central component of the investigated phenomena, with the evidence of its inexorability in the understanding of knowledge, human beings and life.

Esta tese de doutoramento teve como área privilegiada de interesse a Educação Infantil, primeira etapa da Educação Básica de acordo com a atual legislação educacional brasileira. O objetivo da pesquisa foi investigar as políticas públicas para a Educação Infantil no município de Porto Alegre, implementadas no período entre 1989 e 2004, quando aconteceram quatro gestões consecutivas do Partido dos Trabalhadores na cidade. Neste período histórico, há um movimento nacional de reconhecimento do direito da criança de zero a seis anos à Educação, desencadeado por diferentes atores: legisladores, intelectuais, movimentos sociais organizados. O estudo analisou dois campos das políticas educacionais: a oferta de atendimento e a formação de profissionais, abordando a regularização das instituições junto ao Sistema Municipal de Ensino - SME. A metodologia, de enfoque qualitativo, envolveu duas abordagens: entrevistas semi-estruturadas e pesquisa documental. Foram entrevistadas representantes de três segmentos envolvidos com estas políticas desde diferentes lugares, incluindo legisladoras do Conselho Municipal de Educação, coordenadoras da Educação Infantil da Secretaria Municipal de Educação - SMED, funcionárias das Escolas Municipais de Educação Infantil e educadoras das creches conveniadas à Prefeitura. A análise documental envolveu legislação federal, estadual e municipal, publicações da SMED, relatórios de gestão, outras pesquisas sobre a educação municipal e documentos particulares cedidos pelas entrevistadas, entre outros. Uma vez que a pesquisadora, como professora da Rede Municipal de Educação, esteve envolvida, desde diferentes lugares, com a implementação das políticas em estudo, optou-se pela Teoria da Complexidade, de Edgar Morin, como referencial teórico-metodológico para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa e a análise dos dados. Esta perspectiva teórica relativiza a neutralidade da ciência, reconhece o comprometimento do observador em relação ao observado e defende uma postura dialógica na análise dos dados, permitindo a consideração das contradições e erros inerentes ao conhecimento humano. A apresentação das análises sobre o material pesquisado focou os movimentos e complexidades presentes nas políticas públicas no período estudado. Entre as marcas analisadas destaca-se que o município realizou a transição do atendimento às crianças de zero a seis anos de outras esferas para a Educação, tanto na rede própria quanto na conveniada; investiu ininterruptamente em ações de formação continuada para todos os segmentos da comunidade educacional, especialmente professoras, monitoras e educadoras das creches; desencadeou programas de formação inicial em serviço em nível de ensino Médio Modalidade Normal e curso superior de Pedagogia Educação Infantil; e desencadeou os processos de regularização dos estabelecimentos de Educação Infantil junto ao SME, através da criação de setor específico para orientação aos estabelecimentos. Os dados referentes ao credenciamento dos estabelecimentos junto ao SME indicam a necessidade de revisão de fluxos e encaminhamentos, tendo em vista o pequeno número de estabelecimentos autorizados no período de 2001 a 2004, após a criação da Resolução 003/01 do CME. / This thesis of receiving of doctoral degrees had as privileged area of interest the Infantile Education, first stage of the Basic Education in accordance with the current Brazilian educational legislation. The objective of the research was to investigate the public politics for the Infantile Education in the city of Porto Alegre, implemented in the period between 1989 and 2004, when four consecutive managements of the Party of the Workers in the city had happened. In this historical period, it has a national movement of recognition of the right of the child of zero the six years old to the Education, unchained for different actors: organized legislators, intellectuals, social movements. The study analyzed two fields of the educational politics: the offers of attendance, the formation of professionals, including the regularization of the institutions next to the Municipal System of Education - SME. The methodology, of qualitative approach, involved two approaches: half-structuralized interviews and documentary research. Politics since different places had been interviewed representative of three involved segments with these, including legislators of the City Council of Education, coordinators of the Infantile Education of the City Department of Education - SMED, employees of the Municipal Schools of Infantile Education and educators of the day-care centers’ agreement to the City Hall. The documentary analysis involved federal, state and municipal legislation, publications of the SMED, management reports, other research on the municipal education and documents not officially recorded yielded by the interviewed ones, among others. Once the researcher, as teacher of the Municipal System of Education, was involved, since different places, with the implementation of the politics in study, was opted to the Theory of the Complexity, Edgar Morin, as a methodological theoretician referencial for the development of the research and the data analysis. This theoretical perspective relativizes the neutrality of science, recognizes the compromise of the observer in relation to the observed one and defends a dialogical position in the data analysis, allowing the inherent consideration of the contradictions and errors to the human knowledge. The presentation of the analyses on the searched material focused the movements and complexities presents in the public politics in the studied period. Among the analyzed marks as much in the proper net how much in the agreement one is distinguished that the city carried through the transition of the attendance to the zero children the six years old of other spheres for the Education; it uninterruptedly invested in action of formation continued for all the segments of the educational community, especially teachers, monitorial and educators of the day-care centers; it unchained programs of initial formation in service in level of Average education Normal Modality and superior course of Pedagogy Infantile Education; and unchained the processes of regularization of the establishments of Infantile Education next to the SME, through the creation of specific sector for orientation to the establishments. The referring data to the credential of the establishments next to the SME indicate the necessity of revision of flows and directions, in view of the small number of authorized establishments in the period of 2001 to 2004, after the creation of Resolution 003/01 of the CME.
