1. ASSERTION AND ASSESSMENT SENSITIVITY
RESUMO Gareth Evans (1985) e Sven Rosenkranz (2008) formularam, respectivamente, duas objeções ao relativismo da verdade que mostrariam que esta visão não é coerente com nossa prática de afirmar. Defendo que o relativista deve responder a tais objeções apelando à noção de sensibilidade da avaliação. Tendo em mente que o relativista considera es

2. Dilemas atuais da sociedade brasileira sob as lentes da antropologia: relato de experiência de uma disciplina do curso de graduação em saúde coletiva da UFRJ

3. Between global consensus and local deviation: a critical approach on the universality of human rights, regional human rights systems and cultural diversity
Resumo O regime global de proteção dos direitos humanos, enraizado na Declaração Universal dos Direitos Humanos, é dotado de um consenso relativamente incontroverso no que se refere aos princípios básicos e ideais de dignidade e igualdade provenientes do Direito Internacional dos Direitos Humanos. No entanto, apesar do famigerado debate sobre a dinâm

4. Can we make sense of MacFarlane’s relative truth?
ABSTRACT John MacFarlane’s truth relativism (2005, 2007, 2011, 2014) makes use of two notions of propositional truth: a monadic assessment sensitive one taken to be our ordinary truth notion, and a non-monadic one that is meant to account for the assessment sensitivity of the former notion. Some authors (Cappelen and Hawthorne, 2009, 2011; Montminy, 2009;

5. Fine’s McTaggart: Reloaded
ABSTRACT In this paper I will present three arguments (based on the notions of constitution, metaphysical reality, and truth, respectively) with the aim of shedding some new light on the structure of Fine’s (2005, 2006) ‘McTaggartian’ arguments against the reality of tense. Along the way, I will also (i) draw a novel map of the main realist positions a

6. Kit Fine on Tense and Reality
ABSTRACT Kit Fine (2005, 2006) recently described and defended a novel position in the philosophy of time, fragmentalism. It is not often that a new (and even perhaps a radically new) option appears in this old field, and for that reason alone these two essays merit serious attention. I will try to present briefly but fairly some of the considerations that F

7. CULTURE, APPARTENANCE ET DIALOGUE : TROUVER LA JUSTE ARTICULATION
ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to shed light on some difficulties and problems related to the current use of the concepts of culture, belonging and dialogue. The author shows that the idea that we could be prisoners of our own culture stems from a recent transformation of the meaning of the concept of culture. This idea is criticized as a myth, the myth o

8. A SECOND OPINION ON RELATIVE TRUTH
In 'An undermining diagnosis of relativism about truth', Horwich claims that the notion of relative truth is either explanatorily sterile or explanatorily superfluous. In the present paper, I argue that Horwich's explanatory demands set the bar unwarrantedly high: given the philosophical import of the theorems of a truth-theoretic semantic theory, Horwich's

9. Estudios sobre ciencia, tecnología y sociedad: en favor del compromiso político
The paper mentions the turn in favor of participatory or politically engaged approaches in the STS field, and outlines a proposal for deepening this turn within a critical theory of technology route. Inspired in the contributions of Andrew Feenberg and Johan Söderberg, the paper undertakes this task through a combination of concepts from the perspective of

10. Contexts, non-specificity, and minimalism
Atlas (2007) argues that semantic minimalism (as defended by Cappelen & Lepore 2005) fails because it cannot deal with semantic non-specificity. I argue that thereis a plausible version of minimalism-viz., situated minimalism-which doesn't succumb to the non-specificity charge insofar as non-specificity can be dealt with at a postsemantic level. Thus, pragma

11. Modernidade, pós-modernidade e neoliberalismo
This paper surveys the recent literature on modernity and on postmodernity and relates them with the neoliberal ideology that for thirty years was dominant in the world. In relation to modernity, it claims that major sociologists were not neoliberal, but their theories depicted a provisory modernity excessively conditioned by the neoliberal years. In relatio

12. História, retórica, poética, prova: a leitura de Carlo Ginzburg da Retórica de Aristóteles / History, rhetoric, poetic, proof: Carlo Ginzburgs reading of Aristotles Rhetoric
The historian Carlo Ginzburg was involved throughout the 1980s and 90 in the american discussion on postmodernism, arguing against the postmodern tendencies pointing to their skeptical relativism. Ginzburg associates the postmodern emphasis in linguistics to the use of the word rhetoric. His proposal intends to refute those skeptical tendencies by recovering
