"Novo Ensino Médio" Como Persistência Das Desigualdades Educacionais
Atualmente, no Brasil, encontra-se em andamento a implantação do chamado "Novo Ensino Médio", o que, na prática significa o remodelamento do ensino médio com os itinerários formativos, trazendo consigo o desafio de se (re)pensar a manutenção de desigualdades educacionais. Daí, inclusive, a relevância do presente artigo e, em vista disso, tendo como objetivo apresentar os dados de uma pesquisa qualitativa, com coleta de dados documentais e uma rev…
Is a Jungian Analysis Scientific
The Jungian community is divided into two camps. The doubtless larger camp has no interest in the scientific status of Jungian psychology. On the contrary, it despises science as narrow, one-sided, and even irrelevant to the depths of the psyche. It revels in THE RED BOOK, where Jung expresses a hostility to science that makes present-day creationists seem like Nobel laureates in physics. This camp sees science as simply an option, which it choos…
Myth (DRAFT)
Where do myths come from? What is their function and what do they mean? Myth: A Very Short Introduction introduces a wide array of approaches to understanding myth from disciplines as varied as anthropology, sociology, psychology, literary criticism, philosophy, science, and religious studies. It uses the famous ancient myth of Adonis to analyse the ideas and individual approaches and theories of theorists such as Sigmund Freud, Claude Lévi-Strau…
Myth in Religion
The Invention of World Religions
In Defense of the Comparative Method
While in some disciplines the comparative method is used unhesitatingly, in others it is spurned. In the field of religious studies, the method has long been rejected, and that rejection far antedates the anti-comparativist stance of postmodernism. This article identifies the main objections commonly lodged against the method and attempts to refute them all - as mischaracterizations either of the method or of the quest for knowledge itself. The a…

What is Religion
What is Religion? consists of fourteen essays written by a selection of scholars who represent a wide spectrum of approaches to the acedamic study of religion. Each of the essays is an effort not only to take stock of the present controversy concerning appropriate methodologies for the study of religion, but also to take one giant step beyond that to formulate a precise definition of religion. Given the considerable confusion today about what it …

What Does Comparative Religion Compare
The term has disparate meanings. It can refer to the comparison either of whole religions or of specific elements within religion like creation myths, earth gods, and shamans. Alternatively, the term can refer to the study of those who do the comparing. When the term refers to the study of comparers from all disciplines, it is equivalent to theories of religion. When the term refers to comparers in religious studies alone—persons I call religioni…

Meanings and Causes
In his provocative Perspectives essay Steven Kepnes makes various claims. I want to identify five of them and then focus on the last two, on which Kepnes himself concentrates. First, Kepnes argues that studies suffers from a chronic methodological I agree, though many other fields, including sociology and psychology, face the same crisis. Indeed, for this reason Kepnes' essay applies as fully to sociologists and psychologists of religion as to th…
