  • Ética Marxista No Sindicato Dos Gráficos Do Ceará?
    ANPUH – XXV SIMPÓSIO NACIONAL DE HISTÓRIA – Fortaleza, 2009. Ética Marxista no Sindicato dos Gráficos do Ceará? Tânia Serra Azul Machado Bezerra Resumo: Este texto objetiva analisar a práxis de um grupo de trabalhadores que organiza-se no Sindicato dos Gráficos do Ceará, experienciando um processo de formação política. Inspirados pelo materialismo histórico-dialético trabalhamos com a interseção de fontes orais (histórias de vidas) com fontes escritas diversas (fotografias, jornais, etc). A problemática investigativa anuncia-se ao passo que, mesmo em tempos de fragmentação da classe trabalhadora e de destituição da luta sindical, os sujeitos desta pesquisa, reúnem-se interessados em estudar Marx e as transformações político-econômicas contemporâneas. Estaríamos diante de um movimento de resistência? As reflexões/ações do grupo encontram na ética marxista uma possibilidade de superação da crise enfrentada. Palavras-Chave: Ética Marxista, Consciência de Classe e Educação. Abstract: This paper aims to examine the practice of a group of workers to organize in the union of graphs of Ceará, experiencing a process of policy formation. Inspired by historical and dialectical materialism work with the intersection of oral sources (stories of lives) with various written sources (photographs, newspapers, etc.). The research promises to be problematic while, even in times of fragmentation of the working class and dismissal of trade union struggle, the subject of this research, gather up interested in studying Marx and the contemporary political-economic transformations. We face a movement of resistance? The thoughts / actions of the group are in a Marxist ethics possibility of overcoming the crisis faced. Keywords: Marxist Ethics, Consciousness of Class and Education.

  • Psychic Experience, Truth, and Visuality in Post-War Vietnam | 3
    PSYCHIC EX pe RI E NC E , TRU T H , AND VISUALITY IN POS T -WAR VI et NAM Markus Schlecker and Kirsten W. Endres Abstract: During the Vietnam War, unprecedented numbers of dead soldiers were buried in unmarked graves and remain missing today. Starting in the mid-1990s, the services of psychics came into high demand, prompting the establishment of a state-approved Center for Research into Human Capabilities that continues to offer grave-finding assistance for the general public. This article discusses the cases of two well-known female psychics. As the case studies demonstrate, such research programs have established a niche for psychics on the perimeters of the official discursive nexus of truth, science, and visual- ity. They also highlight the variability of social and semantic processes by which different psychics are positioned in relation to recognized distinctions between legitimate and illegitimate knowledge practices and truth claims. Keywords: human experience, paranormal, psychics, reversed agency, science, truth, Vietnam, visuality In 2000, a report of typewritten testimony circulated among the general popula- tion in Vietnam’s capital Hanoi. Titled “Search for a War Martyr’s Remains: An Itinerary Full of Mysteries,” it described in minute detail the arduous process of finding the remains of Trần Thị Khang, a guerrilla fighter during the war of resistance against the French, who had been captured, brutally tortured, and finally murdered in 1950. The report was written by her brother, Trần Phương, none other than Vietnam’s former vice prime minister (1982–1986) and a dis- tinguished professor of economics. In order to find his sister’s remains, he had employed the help of Phan Thị Bích Hằng, a well-known psychic endowed with the special capability of communicating with the souls of the dead.

  • The Tragedy of Marx and Justice: a Critique of Marx's
    THE TRAGEDY OF MARX AND JUSTICE: A CRITIQUE OF MARX’S FAILED ATTEMPT TO DISPENSE WITH PRINCIPLES OF JUSTICE PAUL CHRISTOPHER GRAY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN POLITICAL SCIENCE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO April 2016 © Paul Christopher Gray, 2016 Abstract In The Tragedy of Marx and Justice: A Critique of Marx’s Failed Attempt to Dispense with Principles of Justice, I critique Marx’s belief that his theory of history, as well as the socialist society it would help to bring about, are beyond the need for justice. Although there have been three waves of debate about the relation between Marxism and ethics (1890-1900s; 1950-70s; 1970-90s), no one has yet provided the definitive interpretation of Marx on the question of justice. Furthermore, each of these debates ended in the same basic impasse between consequentialism and deontology, both of which Marx explicitly rejects. This occurred for three reasons. First, they misinterpreted Marx’s immanent critique, which demonstrates how capitalism systematically contradicts its own principles. I explore Marx’s use of this method with regard to principles of justice. Second, they not only neglected the use of immanent critique in Marx, but also of Marx. They do not critique him according to his own standards. They fail to subject Marx to a historical materialist critique which roots his evasive relation to justice in the transformations of the theory and practice of justice in the transitions to capitalism. I discuss the major aspects of these transformations, the most important of which is the devaluation of justice relative to the ethical systems of non-capitalist class societies.

  • Socialist Democracy Or Revolutionary Consciousness? the Prospects and Limits of ‘Revised’ Marxism in Central Europe in the 1950S and 1960S
    Socialist Democracy or Revolutionary Consciousness? The Prospects and Limits of ‘Revised’ Marxism in Central Europe in the 1950s and 1960s Michal Kopecek, Charles University and the Academy of Sciences, Prague The Communist discourse of legitimacy in central Europe First of all, let me touch briefly on a problem that is increasingly attracting historians and political scientists dealing with the Communist past in Central Europe – namely, the question of how the Communist regimes legitimized themselves and how people perceived such legitimation. (Needless to say, my reflection will be more an outline than an extensive analysis of the topic.) Surely almost nobody would disagree that the most important part of the legitimation was Marxist doctrine in its Marxist-Leninist variation. This doctrine claimed to be a comprehensive system of philosophical, economic and political theories based on the teaching of Marx, Engels, Lenin and, during a certain period, Stalin too. The most important part of the system – the theoretical basis of the doctrine – was dialectic and historic materialism, in other words Marxist and Marxist-Leninist philosophy per se. The core of ‘histmat’ and ‘diamat’ was materialist dialectics, whose subject of interest comprised the general laws of the motion and evolution of Nature and society as well as of cognitive and conceptual thinking. In other words, this philosophy claimed to reflect on both the reality and the representation of reality in human thinking. In its Hegelian universalizing conceptual scheme it was by no means silly or even simple - minded. At the epistemological level it claimed its absolute validity and exceptional pretension to truth. As the prolific and also dangerous tool of dialectics necessitated, the doctrine should have been the dialectic unity of theory and practice.
