[OFF TOPIC] Editorial na revista 'Theoria' em defesa da filosofia e sociologia no Brasil

[Walter Carnielli]

Sven Ove Hansson, professor do Departamento de Filosofia e História,
Instituto Real de Tecnologia, Estocolmo, Suécia, publicou recentemente
um editorial na revista 'Theoria' em defesa da filosofia e sociologia
no Brasil. Como a. logica paraconsistente é mencionada, creio que deve
interessar a esta. lista, entre outros motivos.

O Sven Ove escreve com a lucidez e a clareza de costume. Os "três
equívocos" que ele aponta merecem ser explicitamente mencionados:

- "The professions need philosophy"
The first mistake is the belief that students in profession-oriented
educations such as the three he mentioned have no need for philosophy
or sociology

- "Philosophy contributes to innovations"
The second mistake is the assumption that practically useful results
from research and education are best obtained by only funding
activities that are predicted to have immediate practical
applicability.

- "Philosophy is part of human culture"
The third mistake is the notion that research and education can only
be justified if they produce outcomes of a material kind, such as
innovations and technological development.

De um editorial anterior ele ainda cita aquilo que ele chamou de
"paradox of usefulness in research":
If you focus too one-sidedly on research that you know to be directly
useful, you may miss out on unexpected discoveries in other fields
with a much larger potential for useful applications. To provide
research funding only to projects with foreseen practical applications
is about as counterproductive as trying to spend every second of one’s
life in the way that will produce most happiness.
