This book investigates the trajectory and the artistic production of the Norwegian painter settled in the state of Paraná, Alfredo Andersen (1860-1935) through a historical-sociological perspective. Born in Kristiansand, Norway, the artist had his artistic training held in private studios and at the Academy of Fine Arts of Copenhagen, Denmark, then peripheral when it comes to Europe. The …
At the beginning of the 20th century, the aesthetic use of ordinary and industrial objects, originally made without any artistic intention, extended the possibilities of artistic composition beyond the traditionally used supports, especially painting and sculpture. Marcel Duchamp's ready-mades are the paradigmatic expression of this aestheticization project of everyday objects, with a sig…
In this project, we propose a reconstruction of the concept of public sphere (Öffentlichkeit) departing from the theoretical framework of Niklas Luhmann. This reconstruction aims to expose the sociological problem of the representation of communication in modern society: we argue that modern society privileges certain types of communication over others and, based on this diagnosis, we hyp…
Jeunesse dorée is a French term with which Guerreiro Ramos was able to designate certain men of letters in Rio de Janeiro whose books had come to light shortly after the Brazilian Revolution of 1930, as reflections to its outcomes. Despite their long disappearance of the contemporary discussions, those men, in their literary genre, guided the intellectual debate in the country's public li…

When it comes to assimilation, we have considered a passage that takes place between a space (symbolic or physical) and other space. Characteristically, this passage takes place in two ways: we can talk about graffiti legitimation…
It has been 30 years since multinationals started building gigantic enclosed air-conditioned shopping centres, notably in Brazil (a dozen in 1980, more than 300 in 2002 and near 500 today). These malls (literally "public avenues where people go out to shop") are alleged to recreate, beyond their mercantile objectives, an inner city "public culture" that has been deserted since the 1980's:…
This research aims to sort out and clarify some of the main problems regarding the sociological approach to ignorance (understood as a necessary component of human knowledge). It will comprise both the development of a thematic theory of ignorance highlighting its sociological conditionings and an empirical investigation. The epistemological dimension of the attempted theoretical thematiz…

In the 21st century, it is self-evident that global processes impact our daily lives, with communications going far beyond national boundaries, sharing, stabilizing or destabilizing forms and meanings throughout the planet in what can be described as world society. However, although the phenomena 'world society' is an empirical reality, there are not many theories/sociologies of world soc…
Similarly to Memorial of Resistance en São Paulo (2009) and - in accordance with the recommendation of the Brazilian Truth Commission (2014) - to the projected Museum of Memory in Brasilia, Villa Grimaldi (1997) and the Museum of Memory in Santiago (2010) have generated a lot of polemics - not only between the pro- and the contra- of the military regime, but also between different social …
This post-doctoral research, initiated in June 2013, attempts to conceive the relationship between sociology and literary criticism according to some of Franco Moretti theoretical reflections. In a programmatic essay, "Conjectures on World Literature" (in 'Distant reading'), in which he outlines some points on the problems faced by the Comparative Literary Studies, Morreti writes: "That's…
