    Desafío transdisciplinario para la civilización sostenible: enfoques y modelos de saberes

    No full text
    En el contexto de la actual crisis mundial del desarrollo y de la convivencia humana, la transdisciplinariedad (TD) puede ofrecer un aporte determinante al destino común de la humanidad, abandonando la vía de la destrucción violenta y emprendiendo la de la civilización sostenible de los ciudadanos de la Tierra. La visión y el enfoque TD expresan la alternativa a las causas y formas de la degradación de la vida en el planeta. El cambio no puede sino partir de una inteligencia y un conocimiento más maduros, capaces de superar las limitaciones históricas de una inteligencia aún joven e inacabada, que se basa en las limitaciones a la “Emoción que razona” y a la “Razón que opera por sí misma”. A diferencia del pensamiento encerrado en sí mismo, que fracciona la realidad en partes aisladas entre sí, generando saberes antagónicos y destructivos, la TD evidencia y reconoce las conexiones profundas entre los “Niveles de realidad” y los “Campos de conocimientos” interrelacionados, generando sinergias fundamentales entre los saberes que cuidan de la naturaleza y de sus seres vivientes. A través de la lógica del “Tercer incluido”, la TD emplea el potencial complejo de nuestra mente, logrando así integrar los saberes del sentir y los del pensamiento a los sentimientos y valores del compartir y de la convivencia, superando la violencia. De ahí surgen las estrategias TD interpretativas y transformativas de la realidad, cuyas partes tangibles e intangibles se unen en el entramado sostenible de comunidades de saberes diversos de la inteligencia relacional (IRTD), que generan sentimientos de paz entre los ciudadanos del planeta Tierra. A este respecto, este libro del 3CMT presenta una serie de Enfoques y Modelos TD, que hacen referencia a la Cátedra TD UNESCO de la Universidad de Florencia (Italia), enriquecidos por las experiencias de cuidado a través de la valorización de saberes endógenos y científicos en diferentes realidades locales e internacionales: comunidades mapuches en Chile, culturas tradicionales subsaharianas, cooperación interuniversitaria en Europa, cooperación mediterránea en un barrio de Túnez, comunidades de saberes tangibles e intangibles en un barrio de Florencia, comunidades de jóvenes ciudadanos de la Tierra en una escuela primaria de Toscana

    The Challenge of the Transdisciplinary Ecology. The Filigree of Peace Beyond Violence

    No full text
    Thirty years after the adoption of the Charter of Transdisciplinarity, this volume brings together the contributions presented at the Transdisciplinary Colloquium on 7 November 2024, organised at the University of Florence under the auspices of CIRET and the UNESCO Transdisciplinary Chair on Human Development and Culture of Peace (Florence, Italy). The contributions in this volume reflect the dedication and unwavering efforts of researchers, practitioners, and visionaries worldwide who, through the lens of transdisciplinarity, shape a future where peace is understood in its fullest and most nuanced sense. This volume is organised into three interrelated sections. The first highlights the reflections of eminent scholars (such as Edgar Morin), while the second delves into the 2024 UNESCO Recommendation on Education for Peace, offering a comprehensive vision of education for peace and integral ecology. The third section focuses on symposia exploring the practical applications of transdisciplinary thinking, covering themes such as political ecology, cultural dialogue, education for peace, and well-being

    La sfida transdisciplinare per una civiltá sostenibile: focus e modelli di intelligenze e saperi

    No full text
    Nel contesto dell’attuale crisi globale dello sviluppo e della convivenza umana, la transdisciplinarità (TD) può offrire un contributo decisivo al destino comune dell’umanità, abbandonando il cammino della distruzione violenta e intraprendendo quello della civiltà sostenibile dei cittadini dalla Terra. La visione e l’approccio TD esprimono l’alternativa alle cause e alle forme del degrado della vita sul pianeta. Il cambiamento non può che partire da un’intelligenza e da una conoscenza più mature, capaci di superare i limiti storici di un’intelligenza ancora giovane e incompiuta, che si fonda sui limiti dell’”Emozione che ragiona” e della “Ragione che opera da sola”. A differenza del pensiero chiuso in se stesso, che divide la realtà in parti isolate le une dalle altre, generando conoscenze antagoniste e distruttive, la TD mostra e riconosce le connessioni profonde tra i “Livelli di realtà” e i “Campi di conoscenza” interconnessi, generando sinergie fondamentali tra i saperi che si prendono cura della natura e dei suoi esseri viventi. Attraverso la logica del “Terzo Incluso”, la TD utilizza le complesse potenzialità della nostra mente, riuscendo così a integrare la conoscenza del sentire e del pensare con i sentimenti e i valori della condivisione e della convivenza, andando oltre la violenza. Da ciò nascono le strategie TD interpretative e trasformative della realtà, le cui parti tangibili e immateriali si uniscono nel quadro sostenibile delle comunità di saperi diversi dell’intelligenza relazionale (IRTD), che generano sentimenti di pace tra i cittadini del pianeta Terra. A tal proposito, questo libro del 3CMT presenta una serie di Focus e Modelli TD, che fanno riferimento alla Cattedra TD UNESCO dell’Università di Firenze (Italia), arricchiti da esperienze di cura attraverso la valorizzazione delle conoscenze endogene e scientifiche in diverse realtà locali e internazionali: comunità Mapuche in Cile, culture tradizionali sub-sahariane, cooperazione interuniversitaria in Europa, cooperazione mediterranea in un quartiere di Tunisi, comunità dei saperi materiali e immateriali in un quartiere di Firenze, comunità di giovani cittadini della Terra in una scuola elementare in Toscana

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Apprendimento, formazione ed educazione degli adulti nell’ambito della salute mentale: le coordinate di un percorso di ricerca

    Starting from a series of cognitive explorations, theoretical studies and geographic journeys carried out in recent years, in this article the Author elaborates a number of core themes related to the mental health who have set up a specific search path. In particular, questioning what it means “to cure”, he focuses on the interpretative models and the discursive modalities that he has used, as Researcher, to build their own forms of knowledge and he wonders how, and under what conditions, Pedagogy can be characterized as a science "in situation" when it deals with mental health

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
