Book Description
Este libro es una recopilación de artículos, ponencias y conversaciones -casi todos provenientes del Seminario de Problemas Científicos y Filosóficos de la UNAM- y conforman un diálogo, que recuerda el intercambio epistolar, entre dos figuras destacadas dentro de la filosofía de la ciencia en México. Los textos se han ordenado cronológicamente y están escritos en un tono informal; el objetivo es introducir al lector en los temas actuales de la filosofía de la ciencia desde dos enfoques distintos, el ético y el epistemológico

Book Description
Although truth occupies a central position in philosophy and the philosophy of science, there is much debate about its actual role in scientific practice. Truth and Suffering explores different conceptions of truth and their profound influence on our understanding and approach to suffering. By discussing how different definitions of truth shape distinct ways of producing knowledge, the analysis prompts reflection on the impact of knowledge production on people's lives. Drawing on the work of authors from psychoanalysis and the philosophy of science, this book challenges dominant mental health paradigms, particularly the hegemony of biologic psychiatry. It resists attempts to naturalise symptoms and emphasises the need for ethical and political factors to be consistently taken into account when addressing suffering. Offering a clear and original approach to an important and complex debate, Truth and Suffering is of interest not only to specialist readers in a variety of fields, ranging from philosophy of science to psychoanalysis, but also provides an introduction to newcomers interested in these discussions.

Book Description
A an�lise que apresentamos nesta obra destaca, sobretudo, tr�s temas. Em primeiro lugar, vamos tratar da epistemologia de Popper e do cen�rio filos�fico-cient�fico onde se desenvolveu. N�o podemos dizer que Popper tenha sido, simplesmente, um privilegiado ou um oportunista por ter nascido numa �poca de grande efervesc�ncia cient�fica e filos�fica. Muitos nasceram na mesma �poca e nem por isso chegaram �s descobertas e �s elabora��es te�ricas �s quais ele chegou. A criatividade e a fecundidade filos�fica do autor s�o m�ritos que n�o podem ser desconsiderados. Mas, sem d�vida, Popper n�o teria alcan�ado os mesmos resultados sem as implica��es do cen�rio onde estava mergulhado. Por isso, � preciso analisar, ainda que com brevidade, alguns aspectos biogr�ficos do fil�sofo. Isso vai nos ajudar a compreender que, no caso de Popper, suas reflex�es �ticas e pol�ticas n�o podem de modo algum ser comparadas �s muitas "filosofias de gabinete" que povoam as p�ginas da filosofia. Ao contr�rio, sua filosofia � uma resposta concreta aos desafios cruciais de seu tempo.Em segundo lugar, vamos fazer uma breve apresenta��o das linhas gerais da epistemologia de Popper para compreendermos o seu car�ter indeterminista. Nesse ponto, vamos perceber que Popper fez uma op��o pelo indeterminismo em detrimento do positivismo e do relativismo presentes em algumas filosofias de seu tempo. A partir da no��o de verdade adotada por Popper, ser� poss�vel descobrir um caminho de investiga��o que, apesar dos limites impostos pela condi��o humana e pela pr�pria natureza indeterminista do mundo, pode nos levar a algum progresso em nossos esfor�os racionais por compreender a realidade. Com sua epistemologia, Popper dissolve o dualismo epistemol�gico (dogmatismo-ceticismo) que dominou toda a filosofia ocidental, de Plat�o a Comte.Finalmente, vamos procurar mostrar que a filosofia da ci�ncia de Popper permite um di�logo com a �tica na medida em que mant�m um car�ter indeterminista. Esse � o ponto fundamental que queremos considerar. O indeterminismo da epistemologia popperiana � uma exig�ncia para se conseguir a defesa da liberdade e da n�o-viol�ncia, atitudes que s�o a base de toda a �tica popperiana. Para esta an�lise, vamos nos utilizar da contribui��o de Mariano Artigas e de Hubert Kiesewetter, pesquisadores especialmente interessados na compreens�o do car�ter �tico da filosofia de Popper.Sem esgotar a riqueza da filosofia de Popper, mas bebendo �s margens de sua fonte de inspira��o filos�fica, esperamos estimular todos aqueles que se interessam pela racionalidade da ci�ncia e pela defesa da liberdade, em vista da constru��o de um mundo melhor.

Book Description
It has become increasingly apparent that humanity's complex social, political, and economic systems are incompatible with the finite capacity of the Earth to replenish resources and absorb wastes. If the planet is to continue to be habitable for the myriad web of other creatures that make life possible, humans must transform their systems so that they are aligned with natural systems. One thing is sure it will not be Nature's laws, the delicate interdependence that characterizes Earth's ecosystems, that change. The change must begin within each person, and from there permeate throughout our social, political, and economic structures. The contributors to this volume believe that such transformations are urgently needed and possible, and they offer specific examples. They suggest solutions that call for new perspectives in our ethics, beliefs, traditions, economy, business, gender relations, education, and technology. They show that human beings have the power to implement changes in all natural and social environments. The chapters in this book have been organized around three keywords: Reconnecting, Reframing, and Rethinking. The contributors argue that we need to reconnect with the Earth and nature, as well as with each other and parts of ourselves that we have ignored for too long. We need to reframe the way in which people prioritize choices in the economy, the way we do business and pursue development; and we need to rethink the mission of education and the roles of technology.

Book Description
Durante décadas, la nación de Colombia ha sufrido el flagelo del desplazamiento forzado debido al conflicto armado, lo cual ha dejado más de ocho millones sin hogar y sin tierra. Para responder ante esta crisis, los teólogos de la Fundación Universitaria Seminario Bíblico de Colombia crearon una metodología—la investigación-acción misional—a fin de entender el fenómeno del desplazamiento forzado, movilizar las iglesias del país y así fomentar la recuperación holística de las víctimas. Se involucraron docenas de estudiosos y profesionales de cuatro continentes, además de coinvestigadores seleccionados de las mismas comunidades desplazadas. La investigación abarcó los campos de la teología, la economía, la política, la pedagogía, la sociología y naturalmente la teología. El fruto de esta colaboración innovadora fue una intervención llamada Fe y Desplazamiento, la cual se ha implementado en docenas de comunidades a lo largo del país. Este libro recopila sus hallazgos y aprendizajes, describiendo el potencial de la metodología de investigación-acción misional y demostrando el poder de la investigación teológica interdisciplinar, puesta al servicio de la misión de la iglesia local.
