Revisiting the foundations of constructivim: the ethical and theological groundwork of Paiget’s early psychopedagogical thought.El pensamiento de Piaget se basa en un marco conceptual ecléctico integrado por várias líneas teóricas. Así, el presente estudio tien como objectivo explicitar las bases metafísicas e teológicas del proyecto intelectual del joven Piaget para demonstrar la relativa unidad y continuidad entre las categorias forjadas para tratar cuestiones tológicas e éticas y las categorias biopsicopedagógicas, prestando especial atención a la dialéctica inmanencia-transcendencia y conflicto-cooperación.

Eu sou sem religião com crença : a fragilização da herança religiosa e a conservação da crença como elo de memóriaO fenômeno dos sem religião, representado pela designação sem religião, ocupa o terceiro maior percentual de identificação religiosa no Brasil. No Censo 2010 representavam 8,04%, correspondente a mais de 15 milhões de pessoas. O grupo dos sem religião no Censo é composto por três subgrupos: os agnósticos (0,87%), os ateus (3,98%) e os sem religião sem religião (95,17%). O escopo desta tese são as pessoas sem religião sem religião, os quais designamos por sem religião com crença. A abordagem deste estudo foi histórica, sistemática e empírica. O objetivo principal foi compreender as razões para a identificação sem religião com crença. Para tanto, aspectos históricos do catolicismo no Brasil foram pesquisados, cuja associação entre a dinâmica colonial e as missões propiciou uma evangelização fragmentada e pouco institucionalizada, o que contribuiu para a formação de uma herança religiosa fragilizada, constitutiva da memória católica. Além disso, analisaram-se a urbanização no Brasil, as repercussões da mobilidade e a alteração do espaço, na dinâmica das identidades e na recomposição da memória religiosa. A autonomia do indivíduo no contexto de modernidades múltiplas e culturas híbridas promove a pluralidade, o trânsito religioso, a individualização da crença e a desinstitucionalização, aspectos que contribuem para a fragilização da herança religiosa. A urbanização, em conexão com a secularização, endossa as movimentações do campo religioso, dinamizando a paisagem religiosa brasileira. Como o fenômeno das pessoas sem religião é transnacional, para melhor entendimento, apresentam-se alguns estudos e dados sobre os sem religião no Brasil e no cenário internacional. Por fim, investigam-se na pesquisa de campo as razões para as pessoas se identificarem como sem religião com crença. A metodologia utilizada foi exploratória, quantitativa e qualitativa, abrangendo pesquisas bibliográfica e de campo, mediante aplicação de questionário estruturado digital, contendo 40 questões, a jovens universitários da Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais, que são discentes da graduação matriculados na disciplina de Cultura Religiosa e discentes pesquisadores da Pós-Graduação em Ciências da Religião. Conclui-se que a hipótese foi confirmada, porque, ao se identificarem como eu sou sem religião, mas tenho crenças religiosas, as pessoas informam a fragilização da herança religiosa mediante a ausência da religião, mas informam a conservação da crença, como elo da memória religiosa.

The Church as a Space of Solidarity: The Church Asylum Movement in GermanyCountries across Europe have been confronted with pro-migrant solidarity movements that engage both organized civil society and local political actors. The church asylum movement in Germany has revived the ancient practice of solidarity, drawing upon both its history and symbolism. The movement has also reshaped social and political contours. In this working paper, Julia Mourão Permoser explains that though church asylum has sparked controversy and elevated tensions between religious communities and governments, activists justify their actions on normative grounds.

Sexueller Missbrauch von Kindern und Jugendlichen in der Katholischen Kirche - Aktueller ForschungsstandDer Beitrag gibt einen systematischen Überblick über die empirische Forschungslage zum Thema sexueller Missbrauch bei Minderjährigen in der Katholischen Kirche, auch im Vergleich zu anderen Institutionen sowie dem privaten Umfeld. Dabei flossen 52 Studien, die vorwiegend international veröffentlicht wurden, in das Review ein. Als leitendes Forschungsinteresse werden neben deskriptiven Befunden zu dem Phänomen vor allem auch Erkenntnisse zu Ursachen und Folgen des sexuellen Missbrauchs zusammengefasst. Dabei zeigt sich ein weitgehend konsistentes Bild, wonach der Missbrauch in der Katholischen Kirche zwar strukturähnlich zu anderen Missbrauchsfällen ist, aber die Besonderheit des religiösen Umfelds bei den Betroffenen zu einer besonderen Isolation und vor allem psychischen Belastung führte. Gleichzeitig wird deutlich, dass die Täter ihre Taten vorausschauend geplant hatten und Vorkehrungen trafen, diese zu verbergen. Das kirchliche Umfeld und dabei insbesondere die charakteristischen Merkmale von Religiosität haben hierbei als Ermöglichungs- und Vertuschungsbedingung gewirkt.

Seeing the Unseen: Bridging Realities of Experience Through Dependent OriginationOverall, this project looks into the problem and history of colonialism, the impact of it on the people and knowledge coming from South Asia, and offers an alternate view to understand our world. The notion of seeing the unseen acknowledges that there are facets of our day-to-day reality that we are often unaware of when thinking about our communities and ourselves. Yet, being able to fully acknowledge and understand the seen and unseen aspects of our community is necessary if we are to work towards improving our communities for the long run. By relying on the Buddhist teaching and discourse of dependent origination, also known as teaching of emptiness as it evolved in the Mahayana tradition, I intend to frame this wisdom as a research method and an approach that we should be actively using when teaching in the academic sphere, and when working with our communities for civic engagement. Though this teaching is relevant and found in myriad of forms throughout South Asia, in forms of interdependence with God and nature in Hindu communities, and especially in communities that practice and live by Buddhist values, I advocate for it in the realms of academics and public policy. I advocate for it because the colonial impact in South Asia undermines such knowledge, and I believe that this wisdom is valuable when thinking about our contemporary communal and planetary challenges. This teaching gives us an alternate lens at looking at our community and ourselves. It also moves away from the hegemonic knowledge systems based upon our shared colonial history, which continues to impact communities worldwide. Through this, I apply the approach that I am advocating for in field research in my home country of Nepal. The field research explores the seen and unseen aspects of the district of Mustang, with implications on how these facets manifest into the lived experiences of those living there. When talking about seen, I simply mean aspects of our lived experiences that are visibly seen, while unseen means facets of our lived experiences that are not usually visible to our naked eyes. Here, the seen aspects pertain to dynamics of the communities that are physical, material, and reflect our natural surroundings as well. The seen aspects relate my dissertation to the teaching of the first aggregate within Buddhism, which is form or physicality. The unseen aspects here pertain to spiritual and mental dynamics of the community, that relate to the teaching of the later four aggregates of Buddhism, which is sensations/feelings, perceptions, mental volitions, and consciousness. I engage with the teachings of the aggregates to build up my own argument about how we can better understand our communities and challenges if we understand them through the seen and unseen aspects of our communities.

ReligionshistoriaI boken presenterar professor Nils G. Holm en introduktion till det religionshistoriska studiet. Fokus ligger på nulevande religioner, moderna förhållanden och levnadssätt i olika kulturer, men boken ger även en inblick i forntida religioner. Bokens delkapitel fokuserar på judendomen, kristendomen, islam, hinduismen, buddhismen, jainismen och sikhismen. Volymen innehåller även kapitel om kinesisk religion, Japans religioner och skriftlösa folks religioner. För att det religionshistoriska studiet ska vara så fylligt som möjligt bör man förutom att läsa om religioner också läsa de olika religiösa traditionernas heliga skrifter. I boken återfinns ett rikt antal utdrag ur olika religiösa traditioners centrala texter i form av citat från tidigare samlingar. De här textavsnitten tillför ytterligare en dimension i förståelsen för dagens levande religiösa traditioner.

A teoria da racionalização de Max Weber:: a interpretação de HabermasNeste presente texto, descreve-se a reconstrução do projeto weberiano com base na teoria da racionalização através de Habermas, que envolve a ampliação do conhecimento empírico, a capacidade de previsão e o controle sobre processos empíricos. A problemática da racionalização é abordada em quatro momentos. Fenômenos do racionalismo ocidental, esclarecimento conceitual e a visão de Weber sobre o racionalismo ocidental como fenômeno universal. O processo de desencantamento nas representações religiosas e metafísicas do mundo, resultando em estruturas de consciência modernas, universal, mas levado ao extremo apenas no Ocidente. A racionalização social, com destaque para o papel da ética protestante no surgimento do capitalismo e a formulação de um modelo de racionalização social. A racionalização do direito e o diagnóstico contemporâneo desse processo.

Récits d’exil de réfugiés syriens au Liban (2012-2016) : le rôle du religieux et du politique dans la formation d’éthiques souffrantesCette thèse étudie les expériences que constituent la guerre et l’exil pour les réfugiés syriens à travers leur mise en récit au Liban entre 2012 et 2016. À partir d’une centaine de récits et de plusieurs observations ethnographiques, la recherche décrit un aspect peu traité de l’exil en situation de conflit à savoir la souffrance dans ses dimensions éthique et existentielle. La description s’organise autour de quatre types de récits : les récits politiques de la guerre en Syrie, les récits d’exil sur les conditions de vie au Liban, les récits de souffrances. Ces derniers sont ensuite approfondis à travers trois situations existentielles limites : la maladie, la torture et le combat armé. Une perspective post-moderne sur ces récits met en lumière les relations de pouvoir entre savoir religieux et savoir séculier dans la formation d’éthiques de la souffrance. L’étude s’appuie ensuite sur la notion de pratique d’exercices spirituels (ou pratiques de soi) pour montrer qu’elles permettent à certains réfugiés la capacité d’agir sur leurs douleurs et, dans certains cas remarquables, de transformer leur environnement par l’engagement. Elle distingue finalement deux régimes de subjectivation éthique qui articulent souffrance et engagement, l’un non-violent et l’autre violent.

Political Repression of IslamCentral Asia, once one of the least known regions in the world, has become important to the United States since 9/11, the resulting U.S. invasion of Afghanistan, and the new “War on Terror.” Tajikistan, often considered the poorest and most obscure of the five Central Asian “Stans,” was thrust into the public view when it became useful to the United States in its 2001 invasion of Afghanistan.
