Detecção de âmbitos prioritários em investigação educativa: Juventude, Família, Ecologia Humana e Bem Comum? O caso da Faculdade de Educação da UCSH (Universidad Católica Raúl Silva Henríquez, Chile)Apresenta-se o processo investigativo empregado para delimitar as linhas de investigação a desenvolver-se na Faculdade de Educação da Universidade Católica Silva Henríquez, Chile. A pergunta base foi: Qual ou quais devem ser os eixos ou linhas temáticas de investigação da Faculdade de Educação de uma Universidade Católica Salesiana, considerando as áreas prioritárias institucionais: Juventude, Família, Ecologia Humana e Bem Comum? O objetivo envolveu orientar os critérios temáticos, a partir da interpretação documental e a opinião de atores-chave. Empregou-se metodologia qualitativa, baseada em estudo de caso, a partir da teoria fundamentada (GLASER, 1998; REQUENA, 2006), e a análise do discurso (VAN DIJK, 2008; FAIRCLOUGH, 2009; MARTIN Y ROSE, 2005; PARKER, 2006; PARDO, 2007; BOLÍVAR, 2007). Os resultados interpretativos dão conta de uma trajetória de criação e produção de conhecimento em temas como Juventude e Família, enquanto que naqueles de Ecologia Humana e Bem Comum não existe trajetória prévia, visualizando-se como oportunidades ou focos emergentes de desenvolvimento para a Faculdade e a Universidade, em seu conjunto. Em nível analítico evidenciaram-se novos focos de problemáticas investigativas, tais como: a detecção e o desenvolvimento formativo de jovens talentosos, práticas pedagógicas em e para a diversidade em comunidades de aprendizagem e a formação e a educação para a vida no contexto dos valores de identidade salesiana. Finalmente, como síntese, considerou-se que a investigação deveria basear-se em estudos sobre Pedagogia e Didática, em e para os contextos de diversidade, que promovam a justiça social.Palavras-chaves: Detecção de âmbitos de investigação.

The case of the Faculty of Education UCSH (Universidad Católica Cardenal Raúl Silva Henríquez, Chile)It presents the investigative process used to delimit lines of research to develop the Faculty of Education at the Catholic University Silva Henríquez , Chile. The basic question was: Who or what should be the axles or thematic lines of research of the Faculty of Education of a Salesian Catholic University, considering the institutional priority areas: Youth, Family, Human Ecology and the Common Good? The objective criteria involved guiding theme, from the documentary interpretation and opinion of key stakeholders. We employ qualitative methodology based on a case study from the grounded theory (Glaser , 1998; REQUENA , 2006) , and discourse analysis ( van Dijk , 2008; Fairclough , 2009; ROSE MARTIN Y , 2005; PARKER 2006 , PARDO , 2007; BOLIVAR , 2007) . Interpretive results realize a trajectory of creation and production of knowledge in topics such as Youth and Family, while those of Human Ecology and the Common Good no prior history, visualizing yourself as opportunities or emerging foci of development for the College and University as a whole. In analytic level - up showed new foci of investigative issues , such as the detection and the formative development of talented young people , teaching practices and diversity in communities of learning and training and education for life in the context of the values of Salesian identity. Finally, as a synthesis, it was felt that research should be based on studies of pedagogy and didactics, and in the contexts of diversity, promoting social justice.Keywords: Detection of areas of research.

The Australian Catholic University (ACU) has, since 2003, been involved in providing tertiary education for young refugees who have fled persecution in Burma to end up in refugee camps in Thailand. This paper examines the origins of the program, the changes made as lessons are learned, and the current Diploma program which is also supported by three US universities and York University in Toronto. It also examines how past graduates have used their qualifications for the common good, a term derived from Catholic social thought which informs ACU’s specific Catholic identity as a university. The paper further looks at what challenges lie ahead within the Thai-Burmese context and how this model can be replicated in other protracted refugee situations.

This case study summarizes and discusses our project exploring the impact of co-location, connectedness, and community-campus collaboration in addressing the root causes of poverty and our efforts to build capacities in Saskatoon. The site of this study is Station 20 West, a community enterprise centre in the heart of Saskatoon’s inner city that opened in the fall of 2012 as a result of community knowledge, participation, and determination to act for the common good. We share our findings, lessons learned, and project team reflections which underscore the connectedness of poverty reduction and reconciliation, the importance of including those with lived and diverse experience in community-campus engagement (CCE), and the hallmarks of good CCE.

In this chapter, Julia Bohlmann considers the ways in which different Scottish agencies tried to utilise early cinema for non-commercial purposes and so created an alternative social role for it. She offers a case study of the development of the municipal cinema in Kirkintilloch as part of a socialist experiment instigated by Labour councillor Thomas Johnston, following the principles of Keir Hardie, and seeking to establish cinema as a contributor to the Common Good. The chapter is significant in noting a commitment to promoting cinema as ‘rational entertainment’ with a positive social role.

This chapter argues that ‘management ideas’ are distinct from ideas about organization more generally. It suggests that the reduction of the latter to the former is an ideological move that encourages us to believe that there are no alternatives to management, as if all forms of organization were necessarily managerial. The aim is to reclaim organizing from those who claim expertise in management, and instead insist that we treat organizing as a form of politics. Using a case study of an English worker’s co-operative as an example, the chapter argues that attention to the politics of organizing should mean that questions of collectivism and the common good have to be balanced against ideas about autonomy and difference. The resulting forms of organization then need to be aimed at the service of the future, always in the knowledge that any form of organization is itself a form of politics made durable.

In conventional thinking, the promise of scientific progress gives automatic and unquestioned legitimacy to any new development in biotechnology. It is the nearest thing we have in a morally relativistic society to the concept of the common good. This chapter begins by examining a recent case study, so-called ‘mitochondrial transfer’ or three-person IVF, in which policymakers appeared to accept that this new technology should be effectively deregulated because that would serve UK national scientific progress and the national interest, despite serious unanswered concerns about its effectiveness and safety. The historical and philosophical underpinnings of the concept of the common good should make us more sceptical of the manner in which the concept can be perverted by particular interests. But there are also hopeful signs that the common good and the biomedical commons are being taken seriously in new models for governance of genomics and biotechnology more generally.

PurposeWhile current management theory is largely based on economic assumptions, there is evidence to suggest capitalism is at a crossroads. Humanistic management is accordingly proposed as an alternative new paradigm. The present study follows this approach in considering Confucianism as a humanistic practice. The purpose of this study is to explore humanistic leadership displayed by a Confucian leader and how he/she presents humanistic concern in corporate management to pursue the common good.Design/methodology/approachThis study adopted a structured–pragmatic–situational approach to conduct a case study and collected data from three sources: semi-structured interviews, consultant observations and archival data.FindingsThe findings reveal that a Confucian leader takes all stakeholders' interests into account while engaging in corporate management and displays humanistic behaviors toward the stakeholders that are in line with five Confucian virtues. The leader cultivates the employees as Confucian humanistic agents. These employees accordingly act as bridges to transmit the humanistic spirit to their customers and other industries in the same market. To initiate an industry change to achieve collective welfare, a Confucian leader must first influence his/her primary stakeholders. The primary stakeholders next collectively influence the secondary stakeholders (i.e. the industry). Consequently, the overall goal of the common good is ultimately sustained.Originality/valueThis study identifies valuable practical implications for humanistic practices in corporate management from a Confucian perspective. In addition, this study takes a significant academic step forward by illuminating the humanistic paradigm.

The discourse around the merit of public architecture often depicts the architect as having complete autonomy over its design. This belies the constraints placed upon creative solutions by design briefs or the intense negotiations between the State, the architect and the various stakeholders involved in the construction process. Through a case study examining the construction of a courthouse, we demonstrate the difficulties in pursuing improvements to the phenomenological experience of justice within these constraints. It reveals the need for architectural knowledge to be shared for the common good in order to resist practices that replicate existing conditions and inhibit innovation.

Fenomenologia e Educação na perspectiva de Creusa Capalbo Resumo: Creusa Capalbo fez seu doutorado em Filosofia na Universidade Católica de Louvain. Faleceu em 2017, aos 83 anos, e deixou uma obra centrada na meditação sobre Fenomenologia e Ciências Humanas. Editou um livro com esse título, cujo sexto capítulo aborda o tema Fenomenologia e Educação. Mostrando invulgar erudição e fazendo a crítica de pensadores que reduzem a educação à adequação ou à revolta contra a sociedade industrial, Creusa Capalbo entende que o papel da educação é o de propiciar a introdução de valores que assegurem a realização do bem comum. Inspira-se, para tanto, nas meditações exponenciais de Husserl, Scheler, Buber, dentre outros autores. Retomando as meditações desses pensadores, Creusa Capalbo realiza um percurso admirável, sublinhando sua fidelidade ao tema da Filosofia da Educação.Palavras-chave: Fenomenologia; Crítica filosófica; Educação; Bem-comum. Phenomenology and Education from Creusa Capalbo’s perspective Abstract: Creusa Capalbo did her PHD in Philosophy at the Catholic University of Louvain. She died in 2017, at the age of 83, and her work reflects the Phenomenology and the Human Sciences. In fact, she edited a book with that title, whose sixth chapter accounts the topics of Phenomenology and Education. Creusa Capalbo, with a lot of scholarship and criticizing the philosophers who reduce education to adequacy or to conflict against industrial society, she defends an education with values that support the realization of the common good. For this, she was inspired, among other philosophers, by Husserl’s, Scheler’s and Buber’s ideas. Resuming their thoughts, Creusa Capalbo did a great way, emphasizing her fidelity to the Philosophy of Education.Key Words: Phenomenology; Philosophical criticism; Education; Common good. Phénoménologie et Éducation dans la perspective de Creusa Capalbo Résumé: Creusa Capalbo a fait son doctorat en Philosophie dans l'Université Catholique de Louvain. Elle est décédée à 2017, avec 83 années, et elle a laissé une oeuvre axée sur la méditation au sujet de la Phénoménologie et les Sciences Humaines. Elle a publié un livre avec ce même titre, dont le 6ème chapitre étudie le sujet: Phénoménologie et Éducation. Sa remarcable érudition et sa critique des philosophes contemporains qui circonscrivent l'éducation soit à l'adéquation, soit à la révolte contre la société industrielle, l'amenèrent a affirmer que le rôle de l´éducation est celui de favoriser l'introduction dans la société des valeurs qui puissent assurér la réalisation du bien commun. Elle s'inspire, dans la proposition de cette perspective, dans les méditations de Husserl, Scheller, Buber, parmi d'autres penseurs, et elle réalise un parcours admirable, qui souligne sa fidélité au sujet de la philosophie de l'éducation.Mots clés: Phénoménologie; Critique philosophique; Éducation; Bien commun.
