The aim of this article is to understand the notion of classical intellectual in Sartre's thought, more specifically in the conferences Plaidoyer pour les intellectuels. We will see that the path of transformation of the technician of practical knowledge to intellectual begins with the unveiling of the contradiction of the society and of its own role, in the discovery of the falsity of the abstract and excluding bourgeois humanism. Against the ideology that have selected and educated him, the intellectual places the need to think from the concrete and the particularities, which does not imply a subjectivist relativism. By abandoning the abstract universal, the intellectual proposes, instead, a singular universalization, assuming the paradox proposed by Kierkegaard and updated by Sartre. In this sense, to approach the 1965 conferences about the intellectual to the conference about Kierkegaard, given the following year, is fundamental to better understand the role of the classical intellectual. In the theoretical questioning of the false humanism of the ruling class and in the practical questioning of its daily attitudes, he maintains the ambiguity between universal and singular, objectivity and subjectivity. Thus, we can finally understand how existentialist humanism stands.

The aim of this paper is to establish a dialogue with the ideas of three revolutionary Latin American intellectuals – José Carlos Mariátegui, Ernesto Che Guevara and Paulo Freire, in order to share, from our intellectual tradition, a different vision, from the US/UK/European one, of what means to be critical; and to discuss possible inspirations for those of us working in Latin America and interested in contributing to the political processes of liberation which happen around us. We constructed this text in dialogue with the words of these three organic intellectuals which were able to engage creatively with the European thought, producing political appropriations and new theoretical developments informed by their praxis. These intellectuals produced worthy political theories based on their revolutionary praxis, offering ideas, insights and arguments for our analysis of the organization of social struggles and for social practices which confront our society in its imprisonment by the law of value. The paper defends the relevance of history as a space for creative dialogues with the ideas of intellectuals involved in direct activism and producing testimonies of political rebellion against external aggressions, discrimination, marginality, and social injustices; and intellectuals which produced knowledge in solidarity with these struggles.

The aim is to propose, through the joint reading of Jacques Rancière and Paulo Freire, a philosophy of education capable of orienting us in a critique of the current neoliberal society. Having such a goal in view, I first state how equality can appear as a principle to guide our educational practices. With the affirmation of the power proper to the intelligence is an entire anthropological understanding of the man who is drawn, understanding that affirms the human being as an entity that has in learning a privileged way of relating and existing in the world. In a second moment, I argue that such a principle of equality finds an important complementarity with the dialectic between oppressors and oppressed developed by Paulo Freire, explaining the political character of the principle of equality of intelligences and its necessary social mediation within a history marked by the relations of inequality. From this, we can propose an idea of ​​education not based on the strategy of investing in human capital - a presupposition of the rationality of contemporary capitalism - but in the normativity proper to a democratic and emancipatory anthropology and philosophy of history.

This article analyzes the journey of Clóvis Moura (1925-2003) during his intellectual and political training, namely: his youth in Salvador and Juazeiro (Bahia) in the 1940s. This period in the author's trajectory precedes his consecration as a Marxist historian and sociologist whose scholarship centered on the black insurrections in slave-based Brazil and to the fight against racism and capitalism in the post-abolition period. The article discusses a period in which literature and cultural activities in the sphere of the Communist Party of Brazil (PCB) had great relevance in Moura's social life, although History and Sociology already appear as themes of interest to him. The intellectual and political references in the author's correspondence during the period under study inform us about his choices, reveal elements of his social environment, and allow us to better understand the process of his intellectual production in later years. ; En este artículo analizaremos la trayectoria de Clóvis Moura en sus años de formación intelectual y política, a saber: la juventud en Salvador y Juazeiro (Bahia) en los años de 1940.

The late John Kenneth Galbraith was one of the most influential personalities of economic thought on the second half of the 20th century. In many aspects, he was among the intellectuals who better voiced the spirit of American liberalism (that is, liberalism in its U.S. meaning of moderate left). J. K. Galbraith left us a set of insights & clues to understanding contemporary capitalist societies that is indeed, impressive. Therefore in this article we take up only some of the concepts that he brought to us, underlining their usefulness & pointedness to the analysis of today's economics. References.
