description |
This article text aims at taking up some ideas proposed by social analysts and philosophers
that may illumine the scenario of our present world and the itineraries in which we are
involved. On the basis of a brief initial historical introduction, it selects some attributes
that express what has been characterized as modernity. Besides divergences about its
inauguration minutes, there are also divergences around its real status. Modernity is,
then, presented as a duality or a duplication, and the article discusses some of its
counterpoints, such as the politics of antiquity and modernity, the idea of positive and
negative freedom, utopian and conservative thinking and the idea of equality. Other aspects
focused on in this paper are the constitutively technical character of modernity and the
recession of transcendence. Finally, post-modernity is described in an exploratory manner
through some images conceived by social sciences, taking into consideration the fact that
its main ideas, although originated within the cultural sphere, spread to all dimensions of
life in contemporary society: political, economical, social and strictly cultural |
