This paper aims to show that changes in social-scientific approaches are needed as a way to explain and understand social protest and movements in the South American context; it also aims to point up the possibilities for getting lost in the logic of a geo-politically centred rationality. To this end, first, I will summarise the social context of different social movements and protest forms since the 60s. Second, I will present a synthesis of the theoretical perspectives on social protest and movements. Third, I will highlight some epistemological and methodological issues in studies on collective action. And finally I will explore the connection between the historical context and studies of collective action in South America today, in order to identify a current agenda for such studies.

" In the rapidly evolving realm of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital technologies, a pressing issue confronts academic scholars and social scientists--the profound consequences of AI adoption within the intricate structures of society. Despite its pervasive influence, this critical topic remains largely unexplored in academic circles, leaving a significant knowledge gap regarding how AI reshapes human interactions, institutions, and the fabric of our digital society. AI and Emotions in Digital Society, edited by Adrian Scribano and Maximiliano E Korstanje, emerges as the timely and compelling solution to bridge this divide. In this transformative book, readers embark on an intellectual journey exploring the intricate interplay between society, technology, and emotions. Drawing together high-quality chapters from diverse disciplines and cultural backgrounds, the book fosters critical discussions that delve into the philosophical quandaries underpinning AI's influence, especially within the context of our ever-changing world. By adopting a balanced perspective that acknowledges both risks and opportunities, the book equips postgraduate students, professionals, policymakers, AI analysts, and social scientists with the tools to comprehend the far-reaching effects of AI on human behavior, institutions, and democratic processes. As readers engage with this thought-provoking content, they gain profound insights into how AI impacts various sectors, including education, travel, literature, politics, and cyber-security. AI and Emotions in Digital Society serves as an indispensable resource for navigating the ongoing AI revolution, inspiring informed decision-making, and fostering critical dialogue. By empowering readers to grasp the complexities of AI's role in a new cosmopolitan capitalism, the book opens possibilities for a future where humanity and technology harmoniously coexist, shaping the course of our digitally interconnected society.

Dentre os múltiplos procedimentos disponíveis nas Ciências Sociais para explicar reflexivamente a estruturação do social, existem estratégias qualitativas de indagação e, dentre delas, a entrevista. A entrevista, em suas diferentes modalidades, é um instrumento de observação e indagação científica utilizado com o objetivo de conhecer o(s) olhar(es), perspectiva(s) e o quadro referencial a partir do qual pessoas e atores organizam e compreendem seus entornos, e orientam seus comportamentos. Constitui uma modalidade de conversa que permite conhecer o que as pessoas sabem, acreditam e pensam, em relação à sua bio-grafia, ao sentido dos fatos, a sentimentos, opiniões, emoções, ações e valores. Para poder realizá-las é necessária a interação entre o/a entrevistador/a e o/a entrevistado/a, a fim de abrir caminho para a fala e a escuta. Este artigo tem como objetivo refletir sobre o ato da escuta na entrevista sociológica, a partir de nossas experiências como entrevistador e entrevistadora, ousando fazer algumas recomendações para sua realização.
