Abstract

Multilateral dialogues: praxis, dialogue, and confrontations, the call for this thirtieth edition of the V!RUS journal proposes a reflection on this theme, based on two complex questions: How can we conceive a technical-scientific contribution to a multilateral world of increasingly multicultural societies in which the globalization of processes and products has accentuated practices of domination and power struggles in all spheres of life and areas of knowledge? How can we articulate differences, conflicts, and convergences, whether theoretical, historical, political, or cultural, through the simultaneous construction of reflection and action, ensuring the horizontality of dialogues and aiming at producing knowledge and social transformation?
