The article presents the opinions and pedagogical and educational activity of August Hermann Franke - a person of interesting biography and multifaceted activity. The main objective of this sketch is to demonstrate the influence of the assumptions and practice of Pietists on pedagogical concepts and pragmatic enterprises. As far as the origin and the evolution of Pietists are concerned, the author discusses the common, fundamental assumptions (internalized faith, active social engagement, missionary work aimed at improvement of social conditions) and their exemplifications in the activity of August Hermann Franke. The fundamental conceptions of Franke were based on pietistic motivation for life according to faith and individual experience in working with the youth. The article depicts the functioning of centres and schools founded by Franke, in which the founder introduced progressive teaching and educational methods, promoted an individual approach towards pupils. Also, he maintained strict discipline and a system of reprimand, reproval, threats and punishment. The sketch stresses the significance of teachers’ training for the role of educators and also indicates which assumptions and educational practices of Franke survived until modern-day times.

The article presents some historical and theoretical aspects defining intermedia as an aesthetic, cultural and social phenomenon. Its appearance in the 1950s and 1960s was triggered by the changed attitude towards art in the conditions of growing technology in society and the blurring of boundaries between different arts. The concept of intermedia is created by a group of artists who unite under the common name Fluxus, meaning „ flow of life“. Group Manifesto – Dick Higgins, composer, poet, publisher - formulates intermedia as a merger into a „ flow“ of different ways of artistic expression and means of communication. The most important distinctive features of intermedia – accessibility, non-commerciality, freedom, social engagement, compliance of modern lifestyle and the new media in it are traced. It explains the role of this aesthetic practice as an instrument in creating the hypertext of contemporary art.

Resumo O território fronteiriço, enquanto espaço potencial para projetos de desenvolvimento compartilhados entre países, apresenta, na realidade política latino-americana, claras limitações de integração. Mesmo assim, os interesses comerciais regionais apontam para uma necessária revisão dos limites e barreiras ali existentes. Neste sentido, o Mercado Comum do Sul - MERCOSUL tem se constituído, desde 1991 (ano de sua criação), em um bloco de países sul-americanos que visa a ampliar a circulação de bens, serviços e pessoas. No entanto, os projetos regionais de caráter econômico conflituam-se com a realidade desigual de suas cidades gêmeas, as quais não possuem infraestrutura nem investimentos sociais para tais dinâmicas. No contexto da América do Sul, mais especificamente da Bacia Platina, destacam-se as cidades gêmeas de Uruguaiana (BR) e Paso de los Libres (AR), que têm representado um importante papel no controle de fluxos de mercadorias e pessoas, de acordo com demandas comerciais, embora suas condições de desenvolvimento sejam precárias. O artigo se propõe a discutir o papel das cidades gêmeas como nós funcional e espacialmente estratégicos no MERCOSUL. Abstract Border territory is a potential space for shared development projects between countries, but there are many challenges for integration policies in South America. Nonetheless, regional trade interests point to a necessary revision of the existing limits and barriers. In this sense, the Common Market of the South (MERCOSUL), since 1991 (year of its creation), made an agreement among its member states aiming to improve goods, services and people flow. However, regional projects has been in conflict with the unequal reality of their twin cities, which do not have infrastructure or social conditions for such dynamics. In this context, more specifically the Platina Basin, the twin cities of Uruguaiana (BRA)-Paso de los Libres (ARG) have assumed an important role in the flow control of goods and people, according to commercial demands, although their development conditions are precarious. The paper proposes to discuss the role of these twin cities as functional and spatially strategic nodes of MERCOSUL

Over the last few decades there has emerged a small, yet influential eco-Buddhism movement in South Korea which, since the turn of the millennium, has seen several S?n (J. Zen) Buddhist clerics engage in high-profile protests and activism campaigns opposing massive development projects which threatened widespread ecological destruction. This article will survey the issues and events surrounding three such protests; the 2003 samboilbae, or ‘threesteps- one-bow’, march led by Venerable Suky?ng against the Saemangeum Reclamation Project, Venerable Jiyul’s Anti-Mt. Ch?ns?ng tunnel hunger-strike campaign between 2002 and 2006, and lastly Venerable Munsu’s self-immolation protesting the Four Rivers Project in 2010. This article will additionally analyze the attempts by these clerics to deploy innovative and distinctively Buddhist forms of protest, the effects of these protests, and how these protests have altered public perceptions of the role of Buddhist clergy in Korean society. This study will additionally highlight issues relevant to the broader discourse regarding the intersection of Buddhism and social activism, such as the appropriation of traditional Buddhist practices as protest tactics and the potential for conflict between social engagement and the pursuit of Buddhist soteriological goals.

Contemplative Principles of a Non-dual Praxis: the Unmediated Practices of the Tibetan ‘Heart Essence’ (sNying thig) Tradition

This article focuses on the main contemplative principles of the ‘Heart Essence’ (sNying thig), a Tibetan Buddhist tradition that is characterized by a vision of non-duality and primordial wholeness. Due to this vision, which asserts an original reality that is not divided into perceiving subject and perceived object, the ‘Heart Essence’ advocates a contemplative practice that undermines the usual intuitions of temporality and enclosed selfhood. Hence, unlike the common principles of intentional praxis, such as deliberate concentration and gradual purification, the ‘Heart Essence’ affirms four contemplative principles of non-objectiveness, openness, spontaneity and singleness. As these principles transcend intentionality, temporality, and multiplicity, they are seen to directly disclose the nature of primordial awareness, in which the meanings of knowing and being are radically transformed. Therefore, the article will also consider the role of these non-dual contemplative principles in deeply changing our understanding of being and knowing alike.
