Concept of Modernity

Easy

(Originais Teachy 2024) - Question Easy of Philosophy

In the context of political and social philosophy, the term 'modernity' is often associated with a series of economic, political, and cultural transformations that began in Europe from the 15th century onwards and later spread to other continents. According to the sociologist Zygmunt Bauman, 'liquid modernity is the type of social order that is capable of changing shape before the shape itself has been fully consolidated.' (Bauman, Z. Liquid Modernity). Considering Bauman's notion of modernity and the historical context of Europe during the Renaissance and the Reformation, analyze the implications of the 'liquidity' of modernity on the aspects of the formation of the modern state and on the social and cultural dynamics that emerged in the transition from feudalism to capitalism.
a.
Durante o período do Renascimento e da Reforma, as relações sociais e políticas se tornaram mais fixas e previsíveis, o que contribuiu para a consolidação do Estado moderno e a transição para o capitalismo.
b.
A formação do Estado moderno e a transição do feudalismo para o capitalismo foram processos marcados pela rigidez e estabilidade, contrariando a noção de modernidade líquida proposta por Bauman.
c.
A modernidade líquida de Bauman é um conceito que se aplica exclusivamente à era contemporânea, não tendo relação com o período do Renascimento e da Reforma na Europa.
d.
The 'liquidity' of modernity played a fundamental role in the formation of the modern state, the development of capitalism, and the reconfiguration of social and cultural relations, allowing for the overcoming of feudal structures and the opening to a new model of society based on flexibility and continuous adaptation.
e.
A modernidade líquida de Bauman sugere que a transição do feudalismo para o capitalismo foi um processo suave e uniforme, sem conflitos ou resistências por parte das estruturas sociais vigentes.

During Ancient Greece, the philosophical debate on the good, justice, and virtue was fundamental for the organization of the polis, reflecting directly on the political and ethical sphere of society. The thoughts of philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle outlined concepts that still influence contemporary ethics. In 'The Republic,' Plato presents the myth of the 'Ring of Gyges' to discuss the relationship between justice and human behavior when one believes to be free from consequences. Imagine that in a modern society, the politics of a country is marked by a series of corruption scandals that shake the citizens' trust in democratic institutions. A group of Philosophy students, including Mathematics students, seeks to understand how the ethical concepts discussed by Plato can shed light on contemporary governance issues. Considering the described scenario and the myth of the 'Ring of Gyges,' analyze how the application of Mathematics can contribute to the objective evaluation of political actions, discussing the interdisciplinarity between Mathematics and Philosophy from the perspective of democratic ethics.
