Resumo: Many people think that the capacity for criticism and reflection, as well as the attitude of welcoming contingency, the other, and debate, is some internal and well-intentioned energy of open-minded people, as advocated by liberals, whether from the right or the left. What they don't realize is how much the capacity for reflection and dialogue is an external phenomenon, present in the world itself, produced only thanks to a space of resistances, encounters, and even frustrations, as in the academic and scientific sphere. It prevents my cogito and my precious epistemic schemes from getting out of control, in a dangerous transcendentalist delirium, and taking over the world and the circumstances themselves. The aim of this essay is precisely to understand this aesthetic dimension of science, this ontological feature that crosses its contours, taking as a starting point the concepts of "importance" in Whitehead and "matters of concern" in Bruno Latour.

O que não percebem é o quanto a capacidade de reflexão e diálogo é um fenômeno externo, presente no próprio mundo, produzido apenas graças a um espaço de resistências, encontros e até frustrações, a exemplo da esfera acadêmica e científica. Ele impede que meu cogito e meus convenientes esquemas epistêmicos saiam do controle, em um delírio transcendentalista perigoso, e se apoderem do mundo e das próprias circunstâncias. O objetivo deste ensaio é justamente compreender essa dimensão estética da ciência, essa característica ontológica que atravessa seus contornos, tomando como ponto de partida os conceitos de “importância”, em Whitehead, e matters of concern, em Bruno Latour.Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências2023-11-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/x-mobipocket-ebookapplication/epub+ziphttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/14195TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 47 No. 3 (2024): Continuous flow; e0240032TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 47 Núm. 3 (2024): Flujo continuo; e0240032TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 47 No. 3 (2024): Fluxo Contínuo; e0240032TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia; V. 47 N. 3 (2024): Fluxo Contínuo; e0240032TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia da Unesp; v. 47 n. 3 (2024): Fluxo Contínuo; e02400321980-539X0101-3173reponame:Trans/Form/Ação (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/14195/15386https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/14195/15395https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/14195/15411https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/14195/15412Copyright (c) 2023 TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia da Unesphttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAraujo Pinho, Thiago2024-05-09T03:58:32Zoai:ojs.revistas.marilia.unesp.br:article/14195Revistahttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/PUBhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phptransformacao@marilia.unesp.br1980-539X0101-3173opendoar:2024-05-09T03:58:32Trans/Form/Ação (Online) - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false
