Aesthetic intuition as founding principle of social knowledge

Authors

No. 79 (2024): March

Abstract

This essay aims to analyse how the productions of social knowledge take place, differentiating the one generated as construction of social world from the one that, more specifically, pursues scientific validity. For this aim, we argue on the intuition, characterized as a form to access the knowledge that is ordinary, natural, without complex formulations, intuitive, in short. As observed in different manners, it seems to define nowadays stances and perceptions. This occurs, besides, in a form that can be named aesthetic following the very classical conceptualizations, and because aesthetics seems to be one of the signs of our times, as a mechanism that produces intuitive knowledge. From these bases, the essay puts forward some conceptualizations that define and delimitate the validity of the diverse forms of social knowledge.
