Cette thèse porte sur la pensée juridique des comparatistes euro-américains. Elle analyse les travaux d’un nombre important de comparatistes, qui ont eu une place significative au sein de la discipline en Europe et aux Etats-Unis entre les années 1860 et le début des années 2000. En examinant les représentations du monde non-occidental, elle met en avant les tensions entre l’inclusion et l’exclusion des spécificités non-occidentales, tout en insistant sur la nécessité de développer une pratique critique de résistance. En s’inspirant des théories postcoloniales, ce travail aborde les questions suivantes: comment le savoir sur les sociétés non-occidentales est-il construit dans la pensée juridique des comparatistes euro-américains ? Quelles sont les préconceptions qui facilitent la production de ce savoir ? Quel est le fondement théorique qui anime ces constructions et quelles sont leurs implications politiques ? Dans quelle mesure la pensée juridique comparative alimente-t-elle les attitudes de domination ou bien les remet-elle en question ? De quelle manière les réponses à ces questions sont-elles reproduites ou modifiées d’une époque à l’autre, d’un auteur à l’autre ?<br>This dissertation focuses on Euro-American comparative legal thought. It analyses the works of an important number of comparatists operating in Europe and in the United States, roughly from the 1860s to the early 2000s. Examining their representations of non-Western societies, it puts emphasis on the tensions between inclusion and exclusion of particularism and it argues in favor of a critical praxis of particularism. Inspired from postcolonial theories, it addresses the following questions: how are non-Western societies constructed in Euro-American comparative legal thought? What are the preconceptions that make the production of such knowledge possible? What is the theoretical framework that animates these constructions and what are their political implications? What elements internal to comparative legal knowledge fuel attitudes of domination or/and challenge them? How do they change and how are they reproduced from one epoch to another, from one author to another?

Les pensées humaines changent constamment : on regarde, on se souvient, on prévoit... Mais comment les gens accèdent-ils à cette succession de leur propres pensées ? Cette thèse a étudié l’introspection de la dynamique des pensées en capitalisant sur le phénomène saillant et surprenant de la rêverie éveillée (Chapitre 1). Les rêveries sont ces pensées spontanées à propos de nos préoccupations personnelles. Je décris d’abord comment des fluctuations lentes permettent de prédire ces épisodes de rêverie (Ch. 2, 3). Mais ces dynamiques pourraient aussi déterminer le contenu et l’introspection des pensées. En effet, les patients avec des troubles de l’attention (TDAH) rapportent plus de pensées “vides” : ce qui pourrait venir de troubles de la dynamique et/ou de l’introspection de leurs pensées (Ch. 4). Par ailleurs, deux expériences et une étude sur smartphone suggèrent que le langage intérieur facilite la conscience de la rêverie (Ch. 5). Le langage contribue aux capacités de contrôle : les pensées verbales pourraient donc être plus stables et plus vives. Finalement, je suggère que la détection des pensées n’est pas un accès direct à des éléments bien définis. Il s’agirait plutôt d’un mécanisme décisionnel ajustable, qui s’applique à des variables internes continues et dynamiques, comme dans la perception où une décision s’applique à des variables externes (Ch. 6). En somme, ces études jettent une lumière nouvelle sur l’introspection humaine et retrouvent des intuitions anciennes (Ch. 7). En effet, nos données appuient une proposition philosophique faite il y a 125 ans par William James, un des pères fondateurs de la psychologie scientifique : nos pensées sont un flux continu, et détecter la rêverie dépend aussi des dynamiques de ce flux<br>Humans’ conscious experience is always changing: now seeing, now remembering, now planning. Yet, how people notice the unfolding of their own thoughts remains unclear. The present thesis studied the dynamics and introspective monitoring of thoughts, by capitalizing on the salient and often unnoticed phenomenon of mind-wandering (Chapter 1). Mind-wandering is the rise of thoughts about personal concerns. Against the idea that this rise is unpredictable, I first describe the characteristics of slow rhythms that predict mind-wandering occurrences during goal-directed tasks (Ch. 2, 3). Interestingly, these dynamics may determine thought content and introspection. Indeed, patients with Attention deficits (ADHD), who would likely experience alterations in both the dynamics and introspection of mind-wandering, report more “empty thoughts” (Ch. 4). Also, two experiments and a study using smartphones suggest that inner speech facilitates awareness of mind-wandering (Ch. 5). Inner speech contributes to monitoring capacities, thus verbal thoughts could be better sustained in time, increasing their vividness. Finally, I suggest that the detection of inner thoughts is not a direct access to clear-cut elements, but rather an adjustable decision mechanism applied to internal continuous and dynamic variables, similar to what happens in perception (Ch. 6). In sum, these studies shed a new light on human’s introspection and confirm old insights (Ch. 7). Indeed, they provide empirical support to a philosophical claim made 125 years ago by William James, one of the fathers of scientific psychology: we experience a continuous stream of thought, and detecting mind-wandering may depend on these dynamics

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO<br>CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO<br>O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar a noção fregeana de pensamento e discutir o problema da dinâmica cognitiva. Para tal, serão seguidos os seguintes passos. Inicialmente, faremos uma análise da noção de pensamento tal como elaborada por Gottlob Frege. A teoria fregeana será contrastada com sua principal teoria alternativa, a saber, a explicação de Bertrand Russell dos pensamentos ou proposições. Em seguida, será discutido o problema da dinâmica cognitiva, a questão que diz respeito à preservação de crenças e conhecimento por um indivíduo diante das mudanças de contexto. Entende-se ser este um problema com o qual qualquer teoria do pensamento deve lidar. Nosso objetivo é avaliar as soluções para o problema desenvolvidas tanto pelos fregeanos quanto pelos neo-fregeanos, mostrando que elas têm méritos, mas também fraquezas. Questionar-se-á também a viabilidade das propostas de solução avaliadas e será apontada qual delas parece ser a mais plausível. Por fim, discutimos um tipo específico de pensamento que também concerne à questão da dinâmica cognitiva: tratam-se dos pensamentos na primeira pessoa, ou pensamentos de se, ou seja, pensamentos que têm como seu objeto o sujeito referido pelo pronome da primeira pessoa eu . Eles são um caso especial de pensamentos para os quais a questão da dinâmica cognitiva também vale, embora apresentem atributos típicos. Um desses atributos é a imunidade ao erro por má-identificação, já discutida na obra de Gareth Evans. Outras características dos pensamentos na primeira pessoa também serão discutidas, buscando-se apontar para aquela que parece ser a melhor forma de explicar sua natureza e a dinâmica cognitiva que eles envolvem.<br>The aim of this essay is to analyze the fregean notion of thought and discuss the problem of cognitive dynamics. To this end, I shall take the following steps. To begin with, I analyze the very notion of thought as put forward by Gottlob Frege. Frege s theory is to be contrasted with its main alternative, that is, Russell s account of thoughts or propositions. I proceed, then, to discuss the issue of cognitive dynamics, which is the issue of how it is that the subject is able to maintain his beliefs through context changes. This is, I take it, a difficulty that any theory of thought has to face. My aim is to assess the solutions devised both by the Fregeans and the Neo-Fregeans, showing that they have merits as well as weaknesses. I also question the viability of the would-be solutions and tell which seems the soundest. Finally, I discuss a specific type of thought the issue of cognitive dynamics concerns too: the so-called I-thoughts, or de se thoughts, that is, thoughts that have as their object the very subject referred to by the first person pronoun I . They are a special case of thoughts for which the issue of cognitive dynamics holds too, although they present their own characteristic features. One of these features is the immunity to error through misidentification, already discussed in the work of Gareth Evans. Other characteristics of the I-thoughts will also be discussed, with a view to figure out what seems to be the best way to account for their nature and the cognitive dynamics they involve.

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO<br>COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR<br>PROGRAMA DE SUPORTE À PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO DE INSTS. DE ENSINO<br>COMITÊ FRANCÊS DE AVALIAÇÃO DA COOPERAÇÃO UNIVERSITÁRIA COM O BRASIL<br>O objetivo global deste trabalho é mostrar que precisamos explicar a dinâmica de pensamentos de se ou pensamentos em primeira pessoa (ou ainda, pensamentos normalmente expressos com o uso do pronome da primeira pessoa) dentro de um quadro mais amplo de uma teoria dinamista dos atos mentais – nos moldes da teoria defendida por Dokic (2001). Argumento que esse movimento é necessário se quisermos lidar com o assim chamado problema da dinâmica cognitiva de tal forma que a explicação seja capaz de capturar as características distintivas dos pensamentos de se e atitudes relacionadas. A tese está dividida em quatro partes principais. No Capítulo 1, faço uma revisão dos argumentos a favor da afirmação de que pensamentos de se são especiais e irredutíveis a outros tipos de pensamentos - de re e de dicto em particular. O Capítulo 2 lida com o problema da dinâmica cognitiva como este foi originalmente formulado por Kaplan (1989), e discute até que ponto ele se aplica a pensamentos de se enquanto pensamentos indexicais. No Capítulo 3, considero algumas das objeções levantadas por céticos com relação ao de se (notadamente, Cappelen e Dever 2013) contra a ideia de que o de se e a indexicalidade essencial como um todo são fenômenos profundos e interessantes e que precisamos dar respostas a eles. O Capítulo 4 mostra que os pensamentos de se apresentam características que não são capturadas por uma teoria dos indexicais. No entanto, dado que uma explicação de sua dinâmica ainda é necessária, aponto para a possibilidade de expandir o escopo do problema que foi formulado por Kaplan para pensamentos indexicais. Uma vez que, como argumento, o problema da dinâmica cognitiva está para além de pensamentos indexicais e tem a ver com o desenrolar de todos os estados intencionais no decorrer do tempo, podemos reformulá-lo como um problema da continuidade interna (mental). Concluo que um estudo das condições nas quais pensamentos de se são apreendidos com o passar do tempo equivale a elaboração de uma teoria (neo-Lockeana) da identidade pessoal.<br>The overall aim of this work is to show that we need to account for the dynamics of de se or I-thoughts (or else, thoughts usually expressed by the use of the first-person pronoun) within the broader picture of a dynamist theory of mental acts - of the kind advocated by Dokic (2001). I argue that the move is necessary if we are to deal with the so-called problem of cognitive dynamics in such a way that the account be able to capture the distinguishing features of de se thoughts and related attitudes. The doctoral dissertation is divided into four main parts. In Chapter One I review the arguments in support of the claim that de se thoughts are special and irreducible to other kinds of thoughts - in particular, de re and de dicto. Chapter Two tackles the issue of cognitive dynamics as originally put by Kaplan (1989) and discusses the extent to which it applies to de se thoughts qua indexical thoughts. Chapter Three considers some of the objections raised by de se skeptics (notably, Cappelen and Dever 2013) against the view that de se and essential indexicality on the whole are deep and interesting phenomena and tries to answer them. Chapter 4 shows that de se thoughts exhibit features not captured by a theory of indexicals. However, given that an account of their dynamics is still needed, I point toward the possibility of broadening the scope of the problem formulated by Kaplan for indexical thoughts. If the problem of cognitive dynamics, as I argue, outstrips indexical thoughts and concerns the unfolding of all intentional states over time, one might want to reformulate it as a problem of internal (mental) continuity. I conclude that a study of the conditions under which de se thinkings are entertained over time amounts to elaborating a (neo-Lockean) theory of personal identity.

Neste trabalho de pesquisa, buscou-se detectar o modelo de gestão e a visão ética do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Ceará Campus Iguatu, adotados para o período de 2009 a 2013, sob a ótica das escolas de pensamento estratégico. Para tanto, após o estudo bibliográfico e a construção dos capítulos teóricos, efetuou-se uma descrição do Plano de Desenvolvimento Institucional (PDI) dessa instituição, assim como, uma análise documental desse PDI para o período citado, tomando-se como base as características principais das escolas de pensamento estratégico que estavam presentes no PDI para a constatação do modelo de gestão. Em seguida, tomando-se por base a ética corporativa, com ênfase na responsabilidade social corporativa, buscou-se constatar a visão ética da gestão do IFCE Campus Iguatu para o período já mencionado e realizou-se, também, uma confrontação entre o panorama histórico da gestão na escola pública e as características da escola estratégica com a qual a gestão da instituição teve semelhanças para se entender melhor a dinâmica dessa gestão. Por fim, foi possível concluir que a gestão do IFCE Campus Iguatu caracteriza-se como uma gestão de planejamento estratégico (a segunda das escolas de pensamento estratégico abordadas neste trabalho) e que a visão ética dessa gestão segue os preceitos da ética de responsabilidade social corporativa.<br>This research work aimed at detecting the specific administration model and the ethical vision of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of the state of Ceará Campus Iguatu, adopted for the period from 2009 to 2013, from the perspective of the schools of strategic thought. To this end, after the bibliographical study and the construction of the theoretical chapters, a description of the Institutional Development Plan (PDI, in Portuguese) of the said institution follows, as well as a documental analysis of that PDI for the mentioned period, on the basis of the main characteristics of the schools of strategic thought that were present in the PDI, in order to identify the underlying administration model. As a next step, from the perspective of corporate ethics, with emphasis in corporate social responsibility, it was sought to verify the ethical vision of the administration of the IFCE Campus Iguatu for the period already mentioned. Furthermore, a confrontation between the historical panorama of the administration in the public school and the characteristics of the strategic school with which the administration of the institution had similarities was undertaken in order to better understand the dynamics of that administration. Finally, it was possible to end that the administration of the IFCE Campus Iguatu is characterized as an administration of strategic planning (second of the schools of strategic thought approached in this work) and that the ethical vision of that administration follows the precepts of the ethics of corporate social responsibility.

O objetivo é evidenciar o conhecimento contido no agente textual, representá-lo graficamente para compreendê-lo, facilitando o processo de aprendizagem e refinando o estudo dos conteúdos de um texto. Pois considera-se que nem sempre autores deixam as ideias explícitas (suas estruturas mentais) em artigos científicos, de forma clara e objetiva. O MACAT é um processo composto por três etapas, estruturadas em diretrizes para a extração de objetos de agentes textuais diversos. Apresenta-se além do desenvolvimento do método, a aplicação do MACAT baseado em MORPH, para investigação de artigos científicos, visando à exemplificação de sua utilização e demonstrando sua utilidade na explicitação de conhecimento. Com isso, é póssível evidenciar a dinâmica dos processos contidos nos sistemas organizacionais, que apresentam dificuldades de construir o aprendizado, em razão da ausência de instrumentos pelos quais se possa avaliar a progressão do conhecimento. Como resultado, demonstra-se que o método torna possível a extração e representação do conhecimento de agentes humanos externalizados em agentes textuais, permitindo a compreensão de modelos mentais, alavancando a tomada de decisão em situações complexas<br>Abstract: This research is based on developing on a method for the Knowledge Acquisition of Textual Agents based on MORPH - Oriented Model to the Human Thought Representation - which allows you to extraction of a textual agent's mental model. The goal is to demonstrate the knowledge present in textual agent, representing it graphically by facilitating its understanding and the learning process and refining the study of the contents of a text. Because it is considered that the authors don't always make explicit ideas (mental structures) of scientific articles, clearly and objectively. The MACAT is a process composed of three steps, structured guidelines for the extraction of objects of various textual agents. It is presented in addition to method development, the application of MACAT based on MORPH for research papers, aimed at the exemplification of its use and demonstrating its usefulness in explicit knowledge. This makes it possible to demonstrate the dynamics organizational processes in computer systems in those which have difficulty in learning to build, due to the lack of instruments that can evaluate the evolution of knowledge. As a result, it is shown that the method makes possible the extraction and representation of knowledge into human agents that externalized in textual agents, able to understanding the mental models, leveraging the decision-making in complex situations<br>Mestrado<br>Tecnologia e Inovação<br>Mestre em Tecnologia

De nombreuses situations font intervenir la notion de communication ainsi que des restrictions sur cette communication. C'est le cas lorsque l'on pense à des informations militaires, des communications médicales, des normes morales, des jeux, etc. Dans certaines des ces situations, il se peut qu'existent des structures pour penser et organiser le droit de communiquer. Dans l'armée par exemple une telle structure est assez simple et facile à comprendre: plus on est haut-placé dans la hiérarchie militaire, plus on a le droit de savoir et moins on a l'autorisation de dire. Le champ médical est un exemple où des restrictions plus subtiles empêchent un patron d'avoir accès à des données médicales d'un de ses travailleurs, alors qu'un docteur devrait pouvoir y avoir accès. Souvent, ces structures sont présentées sous la forme d'un ensemble de règles informelles, ensemble qui peut être incomplet et même contradictoire, laissant la justice décider ce qu'il convient de faire en cas de conflits. L'objectif de ce mémoire est d'apporter quelques éléments, dans le champ de la logique, pour une meilleure compréhension de la notion de `droit de savoir', éléments qui pourraient nous aider à comprendre et répondre aux problèmes pour lesquels cette notion rentre en jeu. On concentre notre réflexion sur la partie informative de la communication, ce qui amène notre sujet central à la notion de `droit de donner une information'<br>Many situations involve communication and some kind of restrictions on this communication. This is the case when we think about military information, medical communication, moral norms, games, etc. In some situations, we may have structures to think about and organize the right to communicate in such situations. In the army, for example, such a structure is quite simple and easy to understand: the higher you are in the hierarchy, the more you may know and the less you are allowed to say. Indeed, a general can know any secret information but have no right to reveal it to his soldiers, while a soldier can give any information he wants (and may have to give the information he has) without having the right to access most of the information. As another example, in the medical field, more subtle restrictions prevent a boss from getting one of his workers' medical information, while a doctor may have access to it. Often such structures are presented as an informal and incomplete set of rules, that may be contradictory (and let the justice decide what should be done in case of conflict). But we have no general framework to analyze such situations. The aim of this dissertation is to make some progress, in the field of logic, in the understanding of the notion of `right to say', progress that may help us understand and answer problems that involve such a notion. We focus on the informative part of communication (and not on its form) leading our topic to the notion of `right to give a piece of information'

The research undertaken for this largely qualitative dissertation draws on newspaper articles, oral histories, historical documentation, open-ended interviews, and to a lesser extent, questionnaires, in the effort to ultimately confirm the extent to which the benefitting forces of globalization have fractured any existing traditional-historical cultural body of knowledge and expression among the Caymanian people. Indeed, by 2009 some Caymanians had long been verbally denouncing the social and cultural ills of globalization – inclusive of multiculturalism – on their so-called traditional, unassuming way of life, some of them clamoring for an extensive purge of the many foreign nationals in “their” Cayman Islands. Yet, other Caymanians have become somewhat invested in the idea of multicultural “oneness” ostensibly for the sake of peaceful coexistence, harmony and prosperity as these work towards the promotion of a global, borderless cultural awareness. This dissertation relies on theoretical frames centred both on the discrete natures of, and the dualistic struggle between, these two opposing ideological-cultural forces. That this struggle is taking place in the present age, I anticipate the ways in which more modern understandings, which are potentially open to liberating subjectivities, must clash with “historical”, xenophobic and nationalistic viewpoints, viewpoints which have constantly proven contradictory given their adherents’ complacent acceptance of, and participation in, a localised economic prosperity substantively dependent on foreign input. Thus in aggregate terms, this dissertation pinpoints the various effects of an evolving scheme of values and counter-values on an ideologically torn Caymanianness whose contradictory traditional half is especially fighting for its “cultural purity” in an era where its ‘reinvented’ logic is being more and more regarded as anachronistic and somewhat irrational.
