His political and scientific activities were critical in founding the institute and in its in- ternational reach, on which he did not work officially—Schenberg was removed from his position at USP by the military regime in 1969, one year before the institute was inaugurated. On December 3, 2014, 100 years after his birth, a tribute to him brought together some former students, such as physicist Ernst Ham- burger, a USP professor emeritus and one of the pioneers in Brazilian science communica- tion. “Schenberg was a professor with a very broad intellectual outlook,” said Hamburger.

  • Entrevista Roberto Salmeron “ENSINO PAGO NAS UNIVERSIDADES PÚBLICAS SERIA UM CRIME” Por Lighia B
    OS CIENTISTAS ERGUEM A VOZ Uma coincidência reuniu, nas páginas da Revista Adusp, dois dos maiores físicos brasileiros. Roberto Salmeron, que vive na França há muitos anos, veio ao Brasil para lançar seu livro sobre a UnB, e passou pela USP, de modo que não perdemos a oportunidade de entrevistá-lo. José Leite Lopes, por sua vez, re- cebera o Prêmio Unesco de Ciências 1999 quando a edição anterior da revista já estava fechada. Indis- pensável, assim, buscar seu depoimento. Ambos reivindicam para a educação e a ciência a grandeza que o neoliberalismo dominante tem negado a uma e outra. Ambos conferem à universidade pública (e à pesquisa a ela vinculada) papel central na produção do conhecimento. Ambos saem em defesa da ciência brasileira, acuada pelo colapso dos programas de financiamento da pesquisa, intimidada pelos ataques à autonomia universitária, ameaçada pelo desmonte do sistema público de ensino em todos os níveis. Ainda que em tom mais contido, a SBPC também reage ao desmantelamento do saber nacional, partindo para a “cartografia” da C&T nas diferentes regiões do país, em inédita maratona que entu- siasma Glaci Zancan, nova presidente da entidade. Por fim, este bloco de matérias é enriquecido por artigo de Romualdo Portela e Sandra Zákia sobre critérios e métodos de avaliação da produção dos docentes universitários, tema muito pertinente quando se sabe que a elaboração de rankings da ciên- cia pode resultar desastrosa. ✦✦✦ Acumulam-se os sintomas de uma crise generalizada do capitalismo. Tensões, conflitos, uma reto- mada sob novas vestes de práticas e discursos (como o darwinismo social) que pareciam sepultados ao final da Segunda Guerra Mundial.

  • Nuclear Weapons in Regional Contexts: the Cases of Argentina and Brazil
    Nuclear Weapons in Regional Contexts: The Cases of Argentina and Brazil# Olival Freire Junior Universidade Federal da Bahia, Brazil – [email protected] Diego Hurtado Universidad Nacional de San Martín, Argentina - [email protected] Ildeu C. Moreira Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - [email protected] Fernando de Souza Barros Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - [email protected] Abstract: South America is a region which is free from nuclear weapons. However, this was not an inevitable development from the relationships among its countries. Indeed, regional rivalries between Brazil and Argentina, with military implications for both countries, lasted a long time. After WWII these countries took part in the race to obtain nuclear technologies and nuclear ambitions were part of the game. In the mid 1980s, the end of military dictatorships and the successful establishing of democratic institutions put an end to the race. Thus regional and national interests in addition to the establishment of democracies in Latin America have been responsible for the building of trust between the two countries. Meaningful international initiatives are once again needed in the framework of worldwide cooperation. This cooperation is better developed when democratic regimes are in place. Keywords: Nuclear programs, Nuclear weapons, Brazil, Argentina # Paper to be published in Contemporánea, Montevideo. An earlier and short version of this paper was presented at the international conference “An Open World: Science, Technology and Society in the Light of Niels Bohr's Thoughts”, held in Copenhagen 4-6 December 2013. 1 Introduction South America is a region which is free from nuclear weapons.
