Eric Weil's modern society is characterized among other things by its conception of science. Both based on the principle of effective calculation, the understanding of its functioning and its limitations go together. Thus, analyzing modern society contemplates a discussion of the instance that functions as its self-consciousness: the conception of science that is its own, the social sciences, whose model is the science of nature. Modern science and society are understood within the scope of the Weil's category of condition. Here there is no appeal to an unconditioned principle. Therefore, the question of sense can not be made. However, it is not a question of renouncing the achievements of modern science. In Weil's view, however, it must be recognized that the question of sense can be properly made. This is because it must be put through philosophy. Our objective in the present paper is to discuss the relationship between modern society, modern science and sense. This is because if there is a science of an efficacius society there is also a science of sense: this is philosophy.

Using the Foucaultian framework, we examine here the basic assumption of the modern and contemporary political order, namely the decisive conception that men are governable. In the genealogical path opened by Michel Foucault we examined the political reworking of what was originally the Judeo-Christian spiritual power of governing souls. For Foucault, the modern political government of men is situated at the intersection of two sets of powers foreshadowed in early Christianity: a) the pastoral art of conducting conduct displaced from the eschatological destination of souls to the calculated management of (biopolitical) biological life and b) the dual production of the knowledge necessary for good governance; the utilitarian production of the truth that serves the pastoral art of government itself and the pure or aleturgical manifestation of the truth with regard to the governable.

Ilus. Tab. Bib. Sum. (En) ; Secondary forests developing on agricultural land after it is abandoned, or as the fallow period in systems of subsistence agriculture, are an increasingly important component of the forest resources of the tropics. They fix and store carbon and may contribute to the alleviation of global warming, they are refuges for biodiversity in agricultural landscapes, and they are low-cost sources of a tremendous variety of forest products. The final years of the 20th century represent an opportune time to bring together researchers concerned with biological, ecological, social/organizational, financial/economic and political aspects of secondary forests and their management, to share their experiences and opinions concerning secondary tropical forests and to contribute to the development of a forward-looking, cross-disciplinary research agenda. The conference had the following objectives: 1) to summarize the state of knowledge of tropical secondary forests from the standpoint of the ecological, social and political sciences. 2) to report the most recent results of research on secondary forests from all relevant disciplines.

This article aims to analyze the vision of science and knowledge production in its transition to modernity and contemporaneity within the meaning of an education based on creativity that values diverse knowledge. This reflection is a bibliographical character with a qualitative approach. Its theoretical foundation brings the realization of the concepts of the traditional paradigm in the context of modern science and the emerging paradigm today with a creative vision and interdisciplinary contemplating the whole of life, from the pedagogical, while production of knowledge. It is noticeable that in the contemporary perspective of creativity to transforming perspective has sought reconnection of knowledge that involves all areas of humanity valuing imagination, originality, flexibility, thinking, feeling and learning within the aspects encompassing the wholeness of life on the planet.

The aim of this research is to analyze the concept of reading in the mainly official documents that subsidize the practice of readingin the school context.The work is guided on the assumptions of Applied Linguistics about reading,about dialogical conception of language and research developed in Brazil under this line.Firstofall, it ispointed out theassumptionsaboutReading showed in thenationaldocuments: Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais do Ensino Fundamental (BRASIL, 1998) and Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais do Ensino Médio (BRASIL, 2000); after, theideaspresentedbystatedocuments: Referencial Curricular do Ensino Fundamental das Escolas Públicas do Estado do Tocantins (TOCANTINS, 2009a) and Proposta Curricular do Ensino Médio (TOCANTINS, 2009b). The results of the documentary research show that, in general, in the official documents there is the interactive concept of reading, since reading is conceived as a process that enables dialogue between author, text and reader, contributing to the formation of the critical reader.

L'article se penche sur la "participation" des populations à la régulation des techno-sciences et des techno-produits qui arrivent sur les marchés et affectent les modes de vie, l'environnement ou la santé. Une double thèse y est développée. La première conduit à la nécessité de réfléchir aux moyens de défendre et protéger celles et ceux qui interrogent les pratiques techno-industrielles (quant à la sécurité des systèmes mis en oeuvre par exemple) ou qui questionnent les certitudes académiques (lorsque celles-ci légifèrent trop vite sur des questions en jeu dans l'espace public). La deuxième thèse propose de placer la question de la participation dans des perspectives politiques et économiques plus vastes, en lien aux univers des marchés et de la politique professionnelle. Une conclusion majeure est que la participation est toujours invoquée formellement mais qu'on tend en pratique à réduire son usage aux cas exceptionnels où la bataille publique fait rage et ne peut être évitée ; dans les autres cas, on la contourne en la remplaçant par exemple par l'éthique instituée en comités – comités fermés mais censés "représenter la Société Civile", capables d'agir vite et, s'ils sont bien choisis, dans la bonne direction. On passe ainsi d'une régulation par la loi et le droit d'une part, des procédures participatives ouvertes de l'autre, à des formes de régulation fermées et ad hoc permettant la mise rapide sur le marché de nouvelles technologies. ; The article focuses on the "participation" of the populations in the regulation of techno-sciences and techno-products that get to the market and affect the way of life, the environment or health. In this case, a double thesis is developed. The first leads to the need to reflect on the means of defending and protecting those who challenge techno-industrial practices (for example, regarding the safety of the implemented systems) or those who question academic certainty (when these legislate very fast on issues at play in the public sphere). The second thesis proposes to place the issue of participation in wider political and economic perspectives, in relation to the market and professional politics. In the end, it is realized that participation is always formally invoked, but, in actual fact, the trend is to reduce participation to exceptional cases where the public struggle is violent and cannot be avoided; and in other cases it is sidestepped or forgotten, being substituted by ethics instituted in committees – closed committees, but supposedly "representing Civil Society", able to move rapidly and, if well chosen, in the right direction. Thus, going from one regulation by the law and by rights, onone side, and participative processes, on the other, to closed and ad hoc forms of regulation allowing for the fast introduction of new technologies in the markets.

In the scenario of Brazilian Higher Education Institutions, the justifications for dropout or permanence of students vary according to the school and its courses, given their peculiarities, as well as those of their students. However, studies and governmental actions on school dropout are still scarce, which shows the lack of innovation on this topic. Thus, the general objective of the present work is to evaluate the perception of graduates and student dropouts in relation to their undergraduate courses in the areas of Agricultural Sciences and Humanities, from the Experimental Campi of the São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil. Specifically, it is intended to show a methodological procedure that can identify which specific elements have influenced the students' decision to evade or to stay in the referred courses. Thus, a survey was carried out through a structured questionnaire with 40 multiple choice sentences, which was applied by email and through social networks to a probabilistic sample of 243 respondents. Finally, the multivariate clustering analysis associated with testing nonparametric hypotheses was used to verify the existence of a difference between the perceptions of graduates and dropouts that indicated influence on their decision. The results showed that, in general, graduates and dropouts have positive perceptions regarding the chosen course, as well as with respect to the general infrastructure conditions of the campi. For two courses, one in each area, significant differences were observed between the perceptions of graduates and dropouts, with mainly intrinsic characteristics related to students and their well-being, such as identification with the course; motivation and persistence to achieve the objectives; personal and / or family health and stability; and socio-academic integration with other students were those that directly or indirectly interfered in decision-making. ; No cenário das Instituições de Ensino Superior brasileiras, as justificativas para evasão ou permanência discente variam de acordo com a instituição e os cursos, dadas as suas peculiaridades, bem como as de seus estudantes. Entretanto, ainda são escassos os estudos e ações governamentais acerca da evasão escolar, o que mostra a falta de inovação acerca desse tema. Assim, o objetivo geral do presente trabalho consiste em avaliar a percepção de egressos e evadidos acerca dos cursos de graduação das áreas de Ciências Agrárias e de Humanidades dosCampiExperimentais da UNESP. Especificamente, pretende-se evidenciar um procedimento metodológico que possa identificar quais elementos pontuais têm influenciado na tomada de decisão dos discentes de evadirem ou de permanecerem nos referidos cursos. Para tanto, foi feito um levantamento (survey), por meio de questionário estruturado com 40 sentenças de múltipla escolha, que foi aplicado pore-maile pelas redes sociais a uma amostra probabilística composta por 243 respondentes. Por fim, a técnica multivariada de análise declustersassociada a testes de hipóteses não paramétricos foi utilizada para verificar a existência de diferença entre as percepções de egressos e evadidos que indicasse influência em sua decisão. Os resultados mostraram que, de maneira geral, egressos e evadidos apresentam percepções positivas quanto ao curso escolhido, bem como com respeito às condições de infraestrutura geral doscampi. Para dois cursos, um em cada área, foram observadas diferenças significativas entre as percepções de egressos e evadidos, sendo que principalmente características intrínsecas relacionadas aos discentes e ao seu bem-estar, tais como, identificação com o curso; motivação ou persistência para concretizar os objetivos; saúde e estabilidade pessoal e/ou familiar; e integração socioacadêmica com outros discentes foram as que interferiram direta ou indiretamente na tomada de decisão.
