The article reflect on the construction of the imaginary of violence in the contemporary Mexican cinema, and how the social imaginaries are connected with the filmic imaginaries. Edgar Morin's suggestion about the imaginary is crucial for this reflection, also Merleau-Ponty’s ideas about the Phenomenology of the perception. To support this aim, an analysis exercise of Miss Bala (Gerardo Naranjo, 2011 is proposed, a representative film that approach the issue of violence that was increased since the symbolic "declaration of war" to drug trafficking during Felipe Calderón government. Its aesthetic and narrative forms allow the spectator to glimpse other manifestations of violence, which go beyond visual spectacular violence, to allow us to see more intrinsic and symbolic ways, based on the Žižek approach. The present reflection can provide the reader a panoramic perspective on the role played by the cinema and its filmic imaginaries in the constitution of the social imaginaries, on how one lives, perceives, condemns and assimilates a social reality pronounced by narco violence in Mexican society.

Convergence And Divergence

This paper elucidates the notion that action is creative through the social imaginaries perspective. Hans Joas’s critique of sociological theories on action developed in The Creativity of Action (1996 [1992]) argued that creativity is an essential concept to better understand social action. Cornelius Castoriadis and Paul Ricoeur employ an understanding of action as being inextricably connected to the social imaginary and capable of bringing forth historically novel forms of being and doing. An elucidation of Castoriadis’s dichotomy between the instituted and instituting imaginaries and Ricoeur’s distinction of the ideological and utopian poles of the cultural imagination bring to the surface points of convergence and divergence in their respective understandings of the social imaginary and historical novelty. Inspired by Joas’s critique of sociological theories of action through pragmatism, which is underlined by a critique of the philosophical anthropological assumptions held by structuralism, this essay argues that Castoriadis’s and Ricoeur’s distinct insights on the creative dimension of social action and the way in which social reality emerges can elucidate further an anti-structuralist philosophical anthropology that can help inform sociological theories of action.

O interesse despertado pelos benefá­cios financeiros, decorrentes desse negócio, se difunde dentro e fora do Estado, e algumas relações institucionais vêm acompanhadas de relações comerciais, de amizade, de amor. A expansão do tráfico de cocaá­na nos anos 1980 e as transformações sociais ligadas á  corrupção que ele produzira são apreendidas através dos percursos biográficos de diversos protagonistas. Defendemos a ideia de que o movimento de autonomização dos traficantes de droga data dessa época e que ele é correlacionado á  densificação da rede das participações, diretas ou indiretas, em uma atividade que se torna, mais do que nunca, coletiva.Palavras-chave: Mundos do Tráfico de Drogas.

Cidade Juárez.THE 1980s OR THE AGE OF INNOCENCE:  a societal turning point in the history of drug trafficking in Mexico  Abstract: This article describes a key moment in the sociopolitical history of drug trafficking in Mexico: the 1980s, a decade of heedless enthusiasm for drug traffickers ”“ regardless of socioeconomic background ”“ and a time when sections of the social, economic, political elites and organized crime intermingled with great transparency. Interest in the trade”™s financial benefits spread inside and outside of the state, and institutional links doubled as business ties, friendships, love affairs. The rise of cocaine trafficking in the 1980s and the social transformations brought about by the corruption it engendered are apprehended via the biographical journeys of several protagonists. The movement toward the autonomy of drug traffickers is traced back to this moment in time, and analyzed in correlation with the then growing network of participants, both direct and indirect, making drug trafficking an increasingly collective activity in Mexico.Keywords: Drug trafficking worlds.

Fue la década del entusiasmo irreflexivo, en que participan todas las clases sociales, y cuando la interpenetración entre traficantes y una parte de la élite social, económica y polá­tica se da con mucha transparencia. El interés que sus repercusiones financieras despiertan se difunde tanto dentro como fuera del Estado, y a los vá­nculos institucionales se añaden asuntos de negocios y relaciones de amistad y amor. El auge del tráfico de cocaá­na en los años 1980 y las transformaciones sociales vinculadas con la corrupción generada por ese auge, son comprendidos a través de las secuencias biográficas de diversos protagonistas. Defendemos la idea de que el movimiento de autonomización de los traficantes de droga data de esa época y que está correlacionado con la densificación de la red de las participaciones, ya sea directa o indirectamente, en una actividad como nunca colectiva.Palabras clave: Mundos del tráfico de drogas.

Estudio De Caso

Este artículo analiza las nociones de representaciones e imaginarios sociales a través del estudio de textos periodísticos en tres estudios de casos pertenecientes a tres ámbitos del acontecer nacional en Chile: el movimiento estudiantil de 2011, la asociación droga-delito y el conflicto chileno-mapuche. El objetivo principal es reflexionar sobre las nociones de representaciones e imaginarios sociales y diferenciarlas en los textos analizados con el objetivo de identificar los aportes de estas nociones en la construcción de una realidad social, en sentido de Berger y Luckmann (1976). Se propone como tesis que las nociones de representaciones e imaginarios sociales nos remiten a niveles de análisis diferenciados en lo que concierne a la construcción e interpretación de la realidad social. Las representaciones conducen a un plano de lo aparente, en tanto que los imaginarios sociales constituyen el plano fundante de significación de la sociedad.     La metodología empleada es de carácter cualitativa y se aplica el Análisis de Contenido para el estudio de caso que concierne el movimiento estudiantil de 2011, el Análisis Sociológico del Discurso para el estudio de caso que aborda la asociación droga-delito y el Análisis del Discurso para estudiar la mediatización del conflicto chileno mapuche. Los resultados del trabajo resaltan la importancia de la aplicación de las nociones de representaciones e imaginarios sociales al estudio de la prensa escrita Asimismo, este trabajo profundiza en la distinción entre imaginarios y representaciones con el objetivo de proponer pistas de investigación para el estudio de textos periodísticos.This article analyzes the notions of social representations and imaginaries through the study of journalistic texts in three case studies belonging to three areas of national events in Chile: the student movement of 2011, the drug-crime association and the Chilean-Mapuche conflict. The main objective is to reflect on the notions of social representations and imaginaries and differentiate them in the analyzed texts with the objective of identifying the contributions of these notions in the construction of a social reality, in the sense of Berger and Luckmann (1976). It is proposed as a thesis that the notions of social representations and imaginaries refer us to levels of differentiated analysis regarding the construction and interpretation of social reality. The representations lead to a plane of the apparent, while the social imaginaries constitute the foundational plane of meaning of society. The methodology used is of a qualitative nature and the Content Analysis is applied to the case study that concerns the student movement of 2011, the Sociological Analysis of the Discourse for the case study that deals with the drug-crime association and the Discourse Analysis for study the mediatization of the Mapuche Chilean conflict. The results of the work highlight the importance of application of the notions of representations and social imaginaries to the study of the written press in what concerns the study of social reality. Likewise, this work deepens in the distinction between imaginaries and representations with the objective of proposing research clues for the study of journalistic texts.

Resumo: Em O Capital, Marx nos alertou que a mercadoria tem um caráter misterioso que carrega “sutilezas metafísicas e argúcias teológicas”. Este artigo tenta decifrar um pouco desse mistério buscando decodifica-lo naquilo que denominamos como a estranha objetividade do valor. Para isso, analisamos a relação entre a ideologia e o valor a partir da crítica marxiana à mercadoria, consignada à lógica de Hegel. Vemos que o valor se constitui como razão ontológica da mercadoria enquanto produto do processo de trabalho que carrega uma racionalidade imanente, isto é, um espírito socialmente produzido que se objetiva à medida que é vivenciado pelos indivíduos como uma lógica social que rege as relações nesta sociedade. Isso se dá por meio de “sutilezas metafísicas” na formação da realidade social marcada por contradições estabelecidas entre, de um lado, o conteúdo objetivo das relações sociais, e de outro, a forma como essas relações são vivenciadas pela consciência na sociedade capitalista. Nesta relação entre conteúdo e forma, encontramos determinações de profundidade ontológica entre o valor e a ideologia, enquanto forma social que opera harmonizando as contradições constituintes da realidade social, a exemplo do que acontece no trabalho assalariado. A mediação ideológica se põe como uma progressão imanente à materialização da vivência concreta da relação entre capital e trabalho no salário, de maneira a naturalizar a exploração que se esconde na estranha objetividade do valor que se realiza na troca de mercadorias. Concluímos que a conexão ontológica entre o ser social e a mercadoria é socialmente ubíqua, precisamente por conta do seu caráter ideológico na formação da sociabilidade a partir do processo de trabalho subjugado ao capital.  Palavras-chave: Valor. Ideologia. Trabalho, Capital. Salário.  Abstract: In Capital, Marx warned us that the commodity has a mysterious character bearing "metaphysical subtleties and theological insights." This article attempts to decipher a little of this mystery by decoding it into what we call the strange objectivity of value. For this, we analyze the relation between ideology and value from the Marxian critique of the commodity, consigned to the Hegelian logic. We see that value is constituted as the ontological reason of the commodity as the product of the labor process that carries an immanent rationality, that is, a socially produced spirit that is objectified as it is experienced by the individuals as a social logic that governs the relations in this society. This is done through "metaphysical subtleties" in the formation of social reality marked by contradictions established between, on the one hand, the objective content of social relations, and on the other, the way in which these relations are experienced by consciousness in capitalist society. In this relationship between content and form, we find determinations of ontological depth between value and ideology, as a social form that operates by harmonizing the constituent contradictions of social reality, as in wage labor. Ideological mediation is seen as an immanent progression to the materialization of the concrete experience of the relation between capital and labor in wage, in order to naturalize the exploitation that is hidden in the strange objectivity of the value that is realized in the exchange of commodities. We conclude that the ontological connection between the social being and the commodity is socially ubiquitous precisely because of its ideological character in the formation of sociability from the labor process subjugated to capital.  Keywords: Value.

The detailed design implemented according to a grant of the Russian Federal Property Fund is focused on the solution of the cross-disciplinary humanitarian problem connected with the analysis of purposeful and sponta-neous processes of socialization of the child, and specif-ic characteristics of the social and pedagogical activity aimed at harmonization of the relations "the child - so-ciety" in modern unstable public conditions. The frag-ment of a research of processes of spontaneous sociali-zation of the child connected with the estimated dis-course presented in a social situation of its development is reflected in article. In it short characteristic of the post-nonclassical methodology focused on the analysis of chaotic conditions of social reality and essence of the person who acts as the language personality who is not existing "to language" is presented. Possibilities of post-nonclassical methodology in a research of a phenome-non purposeful - spontaneous socialization of the child are characterized. In article the specifics of the social and pedagogical activity aimed at harmonization of the relations "the child - society are disclosed from a posi-tion of post-nonclassical approach", the place of a re-search method in its structure is revealed.

Sentencing Policy

This chapter sets out the case for adopting a normative approach to conceptualizing the social reality of sentencing. It argues that policy-makers need to comprehend how sentencing is implicated in realizing state values and take greater account of the social forces that diminish the moral credibility of state sponsored punishment. The chapter reflects on the problems of relating social values to legal processes such as sentencing and argues that crude notions of ‘top down’ or ‘bottom up’ approaches to policy-making should be replaced by a process of contextualized policy-making. Finally, the chapter stresses the need for sentencing policy to reflect those moral attachments that bind citizens together in a relational or communitarian sense. It concludes by exploring these assertions in the light of the sentencing approach taken by the courts following the English riots of 2011.

Social Realm

We are social animals in the sense that we spontaneously invent and continuously re-invent the social realm. But, not unlike other artifacts, once real, social relations, practices, institutions, etc., obey prior laws, some of which are moral laws. Hence, with regard to social reality, we ought to be ontological constructivists and moral realists. This is the view sketched here, taking as points of departure Searle's recent work on social ontology and May's on group morality. Moral and social selves are distinguished to acknowledge that social reality is constructed but social morality is not. It is shown how and why moral law requiring respect for the dignity and well being of agents governs a social world comprising roles that are real only because of their occupants' social intentions.
