Este artigo pretende ser uma exposição da Filosofia do Esclarecimento de Habermas. Nesse sentido, apresentaremos especialmente seu pensamento inicial, com o escopo de estabelecer seus fundamentos, o que implica iniciar com as influências sobre ele (I. Kant, J. L. Austin, o "segundo" Wittgenstein, M. Weber, E. Husserl, K. O. Apel, entre outros), assim como com sua crítica aos primeiros membros da Escola de Frankfurt (especialmente contra o pessimismo de T. Adorno e M. Horkheimer acerca da possibilidade de a razão nos libertar). Finalmente, mostraremos como Habermas é uma extensão do projeto de uma Filosofia do Esclarecimento, o que faz dele um exemplo do pensamento moderno na história contemporânea da Filosofia.
The 1935 Fox Films "Dante's Inferno" (directed by Harry Lachman) traces the rise and fall of an entrepreneur. Its protagonist, Jim Carter (played by Spencer Tracy), begins the story as a stoker on a cruise liner. The narrative opens with a burst of flames from the ship's boiler, and the ensuing scene goes on to show the protagonist competing at shovelling coal for a bet in the sweltering engine-room. Interspersed are shots of the superstructure directly above with a number of elegant and vapid passengers following the game below. This initial sequence thus concisely conveys the main features of the film's social agenda through imagery that anticipates that of two of its later 'infernal' sequences. [...] Spectacular admonition and concern about the ruthless pursuit of wealth are the main features which link this "Inferno" of the thirties to the one that had appeared some six hundred years earlier. Wealth and avarice were, of course, demonstrably serious concerns for Dante: as Peter Armour, for example, has shown, there is a recurrent and pervasive concern with money, its meaning, and its misuse throughout the "Commedia". So it is not surprising that the "Inferno" should also have been appropriated by social critics some hundred years before the 1935 Hollywood fable. [...] Some of the narrative and visual patterns in "Dante's Inferno" imply an uneasy underlying vision of the movie industry and its practices. Other productions, publicity, and journalism of the time reinforce suggestions of such a metafictional approach to movies, morality, and the market in the 1935 "Dante's Inferno".
Die Behauptung von Jürgen Habermas, man könne ohne „metaphysische Rückendeckung“ philosophieren, wird nicht nur von Manfred Kühn bezweifelt. So ist auch Richard Rorty der Ansicht, ein Begründungsanspruch, wie ihn Habermas trotz aller Distanznahme zum apelschen „Restfundamentalismus“ noch immer vertritt, könne nur metaphysisch genannt werden. In dem Text untersucht der Autor zunächst, welchen Begriff von "Metaphysik" Jürgen Habermas selbst verwendet, um dann aufzuzeigen, dass dieser sich durch spezielle Argumentationsstrategien von metaphysischen Annahmenfreizumachen versucht. Besonders folgenreich ist dabei die Strategie, auf naturalistische Argumentationsmuster Bezug zu nehmen. In seinen neueren Schriften spricht Habermas nun auch selbst von einem „schwachen Naturalismus“. Ein wichtiges Ergebnis der Arbeit ist, dass diese Strategie letztendlich mit bestimmten Aussagen der Diskursethik nicht in Einklang zu bringen ist, und in Folge dessen Widersprüche zwischen dem Versuch, keine metaphysische Rückendeckung zu verwenden und bestimmten ethischen Aussagen auftreten. Nachgewiesen wird dies anhand einer Analyse des Selbstbewusstseins- und des Begründungsbegriffs bei Habermas, wobei im Zusammenhang des Selbstbewusstseinsbegriffs vor allem die Bezugnahme auf Mead, im Zusammenhang des Begründungsbegriffs hauptsächlich die Detranszendentalisierung der Kantischen Ethik und die Auseinandersetzung mit Apel im Mittelpunkt stehen. Da eine Beschäftigung mit dem Naturalismus in den meisten philosophischen Diskursen im Rahmen epistemologischer Überlegungen stattfindet, versteht sich die Arbeit darüber hinaus implizit auch als eine Analyse der Auswirkungen naturalistischer Argumentationsstrategien auf ethische Fragestellungen. Sie verbindet die Analyse der metaphysischen Implikationen im Werk von Jürgen Habermas mit einer Untersuchung der Konsequenzen des habermasschen Naturalismus auf die Diskursethik.
With Big Data, decisions made by machine learning algorithms depend on training data generated by many individuals. In an experiment, we identify the effect of varying individual responsibility for the moral choices of an artificially intelligent algorithm. Across treatments, we manipulated the sources of training data and thus the impact of each individual’s decisions on the algorithm. Diffusing such individual pivotality for algorithmic choices increased the share of selfish decisions and weakened revealed prosocial preferences. This does not result from a change in the structure of incentives. Rather, our results show that Big Data offers an excuse for selfish behavior through lower responsibility for one’s and others’ fate.
O presente artigo trata da consciência filosófica expressa nas formulações de T. W. Adorno quanto ao desvanecimento da ética como possibilidade inerente ao ato educativo. Tendo em vista compreender o significado do termo "doutrina da vida reta" que, nas palavras de Adorno, teria caído em esquecimento na atualidade, o presente texto revisita o pensamento ético de Aristóteles, procurando elucidar o seu sentido imanente à educação. Por fim, extrairemos desse percurso algumas preocupações referentes ao problema da educação contemporânea sob a ótica das formulações de Adorno.
Technologies carry politics since they embed values. It is therefore surprising that mainstream political and legal theory have taken the issue so lightly. Compared to what has been going on over the past few decades in the other branches of practical thought, namely ethics, economics and the law, political theory lags behind. Yet the current emphasis on Internet politics that polarizes the apologists holding the web to overcome the one-to-many architecture of opinion-building in traditional representative democracy, and the critics that warn cyber-optimism entails authoritarian technocracy has acted as a wake up call. This paper sets the problem – “What is it about ICTs, as opposed to previous technical devices, that impact on politics and determine uncertainty about democratic matters?” – into the broad context of practical philosophy, by offering a conceptual map of clusters of micro-problems and concrete examples relating to “e-democracy”. The point is to highlight when and why the hyphen of e-democracy has a conjunctive or a disjunctive function, in respect to stocktaking from past experiences and settled democratic theories. My claim is that there is considerable scope to analyse how and why online politics fails or succeeds. The field needs both further empirical and theoretical work.
Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar o tema da regulação da conduta em pesquisa, passados mais de dois anos da vigência da Resolução do Conselho Nacional de Saúde (CNS) nº 510/2016. São investigadas três perspectivas (formativa, filosófica e normativa) para verificar as possibilidades de autonomia ética na pesquisa em contraposição à heteronomia normativa, especialmente no campo educacional, como parte das Ciências Humanas, Sociais e Sociais Aplicadas (CHSSA). A análise tem como principal base teórica a obra de Theodor W. Adorno e é realizada especialmente com base em uma das questões motivadoras da Teoria Crítica da Sociedade, qual seja, a possibilidade de emancipação (autonomia) do indivíduo na sociedade administrada.
O problema da universalização na filosofia moral não foi de forma alguma tematizado por Adorno. Contudo, há elementos nas suas obras que nos possibilitam refletir sobre esse tema. Tendo por base os escritos de Adorno, e esta é minha tese, pode-se estudar como a ambivalência das diretrizes normativas é integrada numa teoria crítica da moral sem que se renuncie a uma pretensão de validade crítico-normativa.
This paper reads 'The Detainee's Tale as told to Ali Smith' (2016) as an exemplary demonstration of the work of world literature. Smith's story articulates an ethics of reading that is grounded in the recipient's openness to the singular, unpredictable, and unverifiable text of the other. More specifically, Smith's account enables the very event that it painstakingly stages: the encounter with alterity and newness, which is both the theme of the narrative and the effect of the text on the reader. At the same time, however, the text urges to move from an ethics of literature understood as the responsible reception of the other by an individual reader to a more explicitly convivial and political ethics of commitment beyond the scene of reading.
