Estuda-se aqui a contribuição do princípio misericórdia, formulado por Jon Sobrino em teologia e por nós colocado no contexto da questão dos princípios em Bioética. Em grande parte tributária ao principialismo norte-americano, a bioética carrega marcas do liberalismo reforçado pelo princípio kantiano da autonomia. O princípio misericórdia oferece um contraponto contundente que vem da vulnerabilidade dos pobres e da sua condição social nomeada por Sobrino como um “povo de crucificados”. Superando a formulação de uma misericórdia ingênua, soma-se a sua força espiritual com as exigências de uma responsabilidade capaz de torná-la transformadora. Desta forma, o princípio misericórdia vem reforçar tendências da bioética no Brasil que buscam superar o principialismo circunscrito aos âmbitos das relações de saúde, para se tornar uma bioética social de grande abrangência.Abstract: This study is about the principle of mercy formulated by Jon Sobrino in theology and put in the context of the principles in Bioethics. Mostly attributed to the North American principialism, bioethics hold marks from the liberalism reinforced by the Kantian principle of autonomy. The principle of mercy offers a crucial counterpoint which comes from the vulnerability of the poor and their social condition named by Sobrino as a “people of crucified ones”. Suppressing the formulation of a naïve mercy, its spiritual strength joins the demands of responsibility in order to be capable to change and to transform realities. So, the principle of mercy can reinforce the bioethical tendencies in Brazil in overlapping its circumscription to the principialism in the field of health relations, in order to reach a social bioethics with a broader inclusion of the poor.

Abstract Miguel Álvarez, a native of Honduras, explores how mission theology and the contextual implementation of Missio Dei is impacted by Latino hermeneutics. As a foundation, the article compares the North American and Latin American approaches to missiology. It shows how mission as an act of benevolence in the practice of faith differs from mission as a total commitment to the gospel in the execution of the Great Commission. Álvarez contends that because of their context of service, Latinos interpret God’s mission based on a paradigm that favors the poor and disenfranchised of society, and he argues that the ministry of Jesus Christ followed the same paradigm. This Latino perspective on mission helps to explain the current revival that is taken place in the Global South today.

The article develops a transactional approach to studying science. Two concepts play a particularly important role: the institutional environment of science and scientific transaction. As an example, the North-American and Russian institutional environments of science are compared. It is shown that structures of scientific transactions (between peers, between the scholar and the academic administrator, between the professor and the student), transaction costs and the scope of academic freedom differ in these two cases. Transaction costs are non-zero in both cases, however. At the same time, it is hypothesized that a greater scope of academic freedom in the North American case may be a factor contributing to a higher scientific productivity.
