Dossiê Complexidade

Sabemos que o pensamento binário e cartesiano não é mais suficiente para nortear nossa ação neste mundo cada vez mais globalizado, diverso e complexo. Este tipo de pensamento nos ajudou, e ainda ajuda, a construir a sociedade industrial, mas é insuficiente para os desafios que temos neste início de século XXI. Para responder esta questão inquietante, organizamos esse dossiê especial sobre complexidade, trazendo a visão de estudiosos que estão pesquisando o pensamento complexo há algum tempo. A Revista Inteligência Empresarial recebeu resenhas para essa edição especial e organizou um webinar com os autores nos Encontros Crie (disponível em https://www.crie.ufrj.br/noticias/encontros-crie/).

A Economia do Isolamento

This essay analyzes the effects of the pandemic caused by Covid-19 on the acceleration of socioeconomic changes that have been associated with the fourth industrial revolution. The essay summarizes the characteristics of the dominant rationality in the evolution of the capitalist industrial economy based on the Schumpeterian theory, to show how this same rationality acted in the preservation of the natural environment of capital, conditioning and restricting the vision of society's future. Contrasting the dominant and contradictory perception of infinite growth with finite resources, a process of critical counterpoint is developed, based on examples of news headlines and notorious dilemmas, established by public authorities and social medias. The essay concludes that a new rationality based on human criteria for perception of development may emerge due to the behavioral changes produced in society by the pandemic.
