O outro
Neste volume, Franklin Leopoldo e Silva parte de uma problemática muito comum em nossa experiência do mundo: tudo se apresenta como sendo o mesmo e como sendo outro, como idêntico e como diferente. Percorre, então, o pensamento de Platão, Santo Agostinho, Descartes, Sartre, Paul Ricoeur e Lévinas para refletir sobre quem é o outro.
Felicidade
Dos pré-socráticos aos filósofos contemporâneos, como Freud e Habermas, Franklin Leopoldo expõe as mais significativas teorias éticas sobre a felicidade. O que define a felicidade em diferentes épocas e lugares? Quais os meios de obtê-la? Essas teorias podem ser aplicadas nos dias atuais? Amplo e polêmico, Felicidade é um livro esclarecedor sobre esse desejo permanente do ser humano.
Crisis, Rupture and Anxiety
Crisis, Rupture and Anxiety: An Interdisciplinary Examination of Contemporary and Historical Human Challenges brings together a range of original contributions that seek to critically interrogate the concept of 'crisis', a seemingly omnipresent and defining metonym of our times. Both international and interdisciplinary in perspective, the leading doctoral scholars and early-career researchers represented in this volume unsettle hegemonic notions of crisis (and possible remedies) by exploring ...

The Seduction of Ethics
Formal research-ethics committees in Canada now function as an industry, costing over thirty-five million dollars annually. The Seduction of Ethics argues that while ethics codes are alluring to the public, they fuel moral panic and increase demands for institutional accountability. Will C. van den Hoonaard explores the research-ethics review process itself by analysing the moral cosmology and practices of ethics committees regarding research and researchers. The Seduction of Ethics also investigates how researchers have tailored their approaches in response to technical demands leading social science disciplines to resemble each other more closely and lose the richness of their research. Van den Hoonaard reveals an idiosyncratic and inconsistent world in which researchers employ particular strategies of avoidance or partial or full compliance as they seek approval from ethics committees.
Peace in Latin America
This volume shifts the focus from violence to peace studies in Latin America and sheds light on how social groups and individuals resist to violence and strive to create peaceful or at least less violent conditions of conviviality. Drawing on social sciences, history, and anthropology, but also on cultural, literary, and film studies, the book examines the role of social mobilizations, civic activism, and cultural/artistic initiatives as responses to the crisis of violence, which the state is unable or unwilling to address. In this sense, it debates what a culture of peace could mean in Latin America. Divided into four chapters, Chapter 1 discusses peace from an epistemological and philosoph...
The Social Fabric of Cities
Bringing together ideas from the fields of sociology, economics, human geography, ethics, political and communications theory, this book deals with some key subjects in urban design: the multidimensional effects of the spatial form of cities, ways of appropriating urban space, and the different material factors involved in the emergence of social life. It puts forward an innovative conceptual framework to reconsider some fundamental features of city-making as a social process: the place of cities in encounters and communications, in the randomness of events and in the repetition of activities that characterise societies. In doing so, it provides fresh analytical tools and theoretical insight...
Amor e desejo
Neste volume, Homero Santiago reconstrói, de maneira rigorosa e cativante, a história filosófica da concepção do amor e do desejo, partindo de uma pergunta cuja resposta não é nada óbvia: amor e desejo são idênticos? Os mitos gregos, Sócrates, Platão, o Novo Testamento, Agostinho de Hipona, Descartes, Espinosa e Freud são, entre outras, as principais referências desse livro instigante.
