On different occasions throughout his work, Nietzsche uses the term Freisinnigkeit to refer to a certain "liberality of spirit." This notion is directly related to that of the free spirit, as well as to the Nietzschean approach to nomadism and, more particularly, to that of the Jewish diaspora. In this text we will show how, through these notions, Nietzsche generates a space for political reflection in which issues such as his radical criticism of nationalism can be integrated

The aim of this paper is to analyze the philosophical context of Thucydides’ work. By analyzing the idea of Truth, we will define the intellectual link between Thucydides and pre-Socratic philosophers such as Parmenides of Elea and Gorgias of Leontini.

This article aims to be a useful reference for scholars of Platoʼs philosophy. It contributes a novel approach researching the logical processes that determine that some forms communicate with others. The introduction of the concept of relational participation opens up a possible solution to the different versions of the «third man» argument. The method for generating numbers based on odd and even, which is proposed in the interpretation of Parmenides 143e-144a, may also be of interest. This text has its continuation a second article about being and truth in Plato.

Faced with the different ways of understanding scientific objectivity, with a clear prevalence of the empirical-experimental sense, which entails some epistemic discrimination with those areas of knowledge, whose criteria of cognitive validity are different from experimental contrast, Professor Evandro Agazzi, with his scientific realism and open and inclusive epistemological conception, sets up a concept of objectivity suitable for all scientific and academic work. Indeed, with its distinction between objectivity in a weak and strong sense, Agazzi argues that these ways of understanding objectivity can include and harmonize the varied epistemological horizons from which it is possible to do science and academia more relevant and appropriate to the contemporary context, characterized by dynamism and complexity.

La ontología fichteana social es poco conocida, pero ciertamente muy original. Es el resultado directo de la actualización fichteana del concepto de sujeto kantiano. Kant comprende el sujeto como principio transcendental, aquello que Fichte reinterpreta como sujeto humano. A partir de Fichte, el conocimiento se entiende, pues, como conocimiento humano. El hecho de comprender el conocimiento a partir de la conciencia del sujeto únicamente, constituye a la vez la fuerza y la debilidad de la posición fichteana. Si el humanismo consiste en pensar a partir de la acción humana, entonces Fichte es un pensador absolutamente humanista. Su humanismo ilustra su pensamiento, comprendido en este humanismo la ontología. La ontología fichteana no concierne ya a la aprehensión de lo que es cuanto es, sino, por el contrario, al mundo que nosotros construimos, y, desde este punto de vista constructivista, a lo que construimos, y, en consecuencia, a lo que podemos conocer.

In this article I present a theoretical reflection in order to think about the citizenship in terms of a paradox. The paradox arises because, although citizenship is based on recognition, enjoyment and guarantee of rights, the citizen’s exercise exceeds the legality in that it denounces the insufficiency or injustice of said legality and challenges it to change. For this purpose, I will recover the democratic paradox developed by Chantal Mouffe. At the same time, I will propose the political-police / police paradox from Jacques Rancière and the representation / regulation paradox from Étienne Balibar. The aim is to denounce that the current notion of citizenship aims for the disarticulation of the political subject that fights for its right to have rights.

In 1974/75, the end of a cycle of armed conflict between the Portuguese state and the African liberation movements would lead to two important changes: in Portugal, the break with the Estado Novo dictatorship; in the former African colonies, the emergence of a set of new nations marked by the anticolonialism. This article proposes to examine the memory of colonial war in Portugal confronting it with a wider colonial history, marked by a memorial selectivity that tends to erase the violent dimension of the process. These «politics of silence» are confronted with the «politics of exaltation» of the national liberation struggles that, from the former colonized territories, were instituting alternative regimes of historicity and memory horizons.

The creation of places and cultural activities dedicated to the poet Miguel Hernández, in the Portuguese-Spanish border, constitutes a «community of sharing» (Rancière, 2005) which involved the production of a public defined by the perception and appointment of atrocious injustices, to which the poet serves as interlocutor. In this text I question the forms of consensus and dissent expressed in processes of political subjectification, what it means to be interlocutors in a common world, considering that the power of political exemplarity achieved by artistic practices, to the detriment of narratives of experience and historical discourses in general, seem to indicate that it is in the aesthetic terrain that a battle is pursued one that had been previously focused on the illusions and delusions of history.

The Chilean exile after the coup d’état that meant the end of the Popular Unity, pushed about 200.000 people abroad between 1973 and 1977 and a total of 400.000 people, considering the end of the sanction in 1988. A third of the exile was constituted by women, who left Chile for countries such as Argentina, Canada, Mexico, Sweden, Norway, France or Spain after suffering persecution, repression, torture and in many cases, prison. This paper analyzes how these women lived in exile alone or with their families, under three thematic axes: the arrival in the host country, the family and affective relationships, and their militancy and political activism.

En el presente artículo se describe un procedimiento para la evaluación de la calidad de las mediciones basado en la metodología seis sigma, siendo este aplicado en una empresa refinadora de petróleo específicamente en el proceso de almacenamiento de turbo combustible Jet A1. La propuesta garantiza la evaluación y mejora del sistema de gestión de las mediciones así como el conocimiento de la calidad de las mismas en el ensayo acidez. Para dar cumplimiento a lo planteado se utilizaron entrevistas, observaciones directas, revisión de documentos, estudio de repetibilidad y reproducibilidad, además de técnicas estadísticas propias de este tipo de estudio. Como principales resultados de la investigación se determinaron los porcentajes de variación debido a reproducibilidad y repetibilidad en el ensayo acidez, observándose variabilidad, resultando que el método de medición no es el adecuado, el número de categorías distintas (nc) que pueden ser distinguidas confiablemente por el sistema de medición, así como se analizó el estado de los instrumentos de medición que se utilizan estando todos verificados y/o calibrados. Se propusieron un grupo de acciones encaminadas al tratamiento de las deficiencias detectadas durante el estudio, se implementan y evalúan las mismas, evidenciándose que el sistema de medición es aceptable, lo que implica que es capaz de detectar variaciones, demostrando que las soluciones propuestas resuelven el problema y llevan a las mejoras buscadas.
