Nesse artigo apresento uma análise do caso de parricídio/ fraticídio cometido por um jovem camponês francês, nascido na comuna de Courvaudon, Pierre Rivière que em 3 de junho de 1835, aos vinte anos, assassinou a golpes de foice sua mãe grávida de sete meses, sua irmã de 18 anos, e seu irmão de sete anos. O livro intitulado Eu, Pierre Rivière, que degolei minha mãe, minha irmã e meu irmão produzido pelo trabalho de uma equipe de pesquisadores, no Collège de France, sob a coordenação de Michel Foucault em 1973, apresenta em seu conjunto notícias de jornais, testemunhos, interrogatórios, laudos médicos e uma gama de diferentes discursos. Para empreender a análise do nó entre a escrita e o assassinato, utilizo a relação entre a escrita e o autor demarcando o personagem Rivière no desdobramento, na ordem do corpo e da linguagem.

Freud ocupou uma função dobradiça nas pesquisas que Michel Foucault realizou em torno da arqueologia do saber, da genealogia do poder e na genealogia da ética. As diferentes posições do filósofo francês sobre Freud e a psicanálise permitem articular o projeto de escrita de uma genealogia da ética com o movimento de retorno a Freud empreendido pelo psicanalista Jacques Lacan. Pretendo sustentar que a visada de Foucault sobre Freud é recorrente pela função autor que reconheceu atuar na tática genealógica. A obra de Freud, interpretada por Lacan, foi decisiva para Foucault investigar os modos de sujeição e assim estabelecer a distinção entre o que pertence ao campo da moral e aquilo que é próprio ao campo da ética. A problematização do sujeito do desejo permitiu um deslocamento da analítica do poder para a constituição do cuidado de si como um princípio ético para instaurar uma estética de si.
The author analyses new structural unemployment, the role of production internationalization, and the advantages that large companies take in this scenery which would eventually break the historical alliance between capitalism, welfare state, and democracy. Investment, production, tributes, and domicile are not necessarily connected in the same site any more. As an alternative, it would be necessary to put into the agenda a new concept of "richness", one that should include citizenship indicators. The author also proposes options that make apparent the necessity to reorganize on new basis the relations between state and civil society. ; The author analyses new structural unemployment, the role of production internationalization, and the advantages that large companies take in this scenery which would eventually break the historical alliance between capitalism, welfare state, and democracy.

In this text, Jacques Fontanel demonstrates that, only recently, contemporary economists have been concerned with defense economy, as, frequently, peace, in their studies, was considered as something given. The author reviews the five major currents of thought that analyse the economical nature of defense effort, showing what it has been representing along periods of time, for the liberals, Marxists, Keynesian authors, for the Mercantilist School and for the adepts of econometric studies. Following, emphasizes the economy of disarmament, approaching questions such as: the military costs are, actually, external variables? Ali disarmament is necessarily equivalent to a cut in military costs? There exist, in fact, the so called "peace dividends"? Is there possibility of conversion of the military industry? After, the author analyses the fundamental principles of disarmament and the actual International context which lead interrogations from the economists about the substitution of the military war by the economical war. Concluding, J. Fontanel states that the economical factors became permanent armament, where the economy is transformed in an instrument of power used in the conflict of States, as the food weapon. The author, finally, exhorts the influent segments of society to a general concern in favor of peace. ; In this text, Jacques Fontanel demonstrates that, only recently, contemporary economists have been concerned with defense economy, as, frequently, peace, in their studies, was considered as something given.

This is an intellectual self-profile. The author starts identifying the political and theoretical influences he had, as a young man, from his family, and from intellectuals as Marx, Weber and Keynes, abroad, and from Furtado and Rangel, in Brazil. He divides his contributions in historical and theoretical. The historical analyses are, on their turn, subdivided in those dealing specifically with Brazil and Latin America and others referring to changes in contemporary world economy and society. In the conclusion, the author makes a general evaluation of the work done, which involves also a research program for the future. (Rev Econ Polit/DÜI)
The article provides an overview of the international trade topics being discussed at the World Trade Organization. In reviewing the background of the liberalization process from the Brazilian point of view, the author emphasizes the need for greater domestic awareness of the emerging issues and new directions which are to be discussed at the Singapore Conference. Occupying a central position within this context is the question of multilateralism versus regionalism and its consequences. The author describes other controversial themes debated in the forums, including the social clause, investment, competition policies and the environmental issue. (Polit Externa/DÜI)
In this paper, the author describes briefly the basic characteristics of Brazil, analyzing, in the light of the present political and economic advances, issues such as democratization, economic stability, changes in land occupation and exploration, science and technology and the social question. The insertion of Brazil into the South-American, Latin American and hemispheric context is then examined. The author concludes that it is vital to carry out strategic studies with a view to setting guidelines and gathering proposals for the future insertion of Brazil abroad, especially in regard to its national defense policies and the establishment of long-term development planning.

In this article, the author discusses financial questions deemed as key issues, in highway privatization projects in Brazil. Expected returns, compared tariffs, costs, demand and capital structure are the core on this work. The author performs a simulation exercise based on one of the cases most frequently remembered as a candidate to privatization in the State of Sao Paulo: the system comprising the Anchieta and the Imigrantes highways, which make a connection between the city of Sao Paulo and the city of Santos, on the coast. The conclusions indicate that it is a feasible undertaking, provided that some restrictions are included in its design
In spite of the uncertainties that surround future predictions in a rapidly changing world, the author attempts to draw a sketch of the events the next 25 years may reserve both for Brazil and the world in the era of globalization. Several trends that are liable to influence the course of foreign affairs worldwide are reviewed, such as homogenization, unipolarism and intensification of regional integration. The author then analyzes the insertion of Brazil into the international scene - which has been greatly enhanced in recent years thanks to the success of the "Plano Real" - and emphasizes the need for development not only in the economic but also in the social sphere.

UNESCO is a supranational actor, whose political action contributes to the mobilization of a range of social actors around the governance of youth and adult education. In this article the author examines the types of mobilization processes that occur through interactions between UNESCO and other political actors. The results bring to light three modes of mobilization through which: 1) a shared past in youth and adult education is co-constructed (landmarking), 2) a viable future is envisioned through interactions between UNESCO and other political actors (brokering), and 3) specific standard-setting and monitoring instruments are created, in an attempt to produce material changes in youth adult education (framing). In conclusion the author stresses the need for further research to deepen the understanding of these processes and the materiality of the changes they are (or are not) able to produce.
