Conteúdo e forma, percepção e expressão: o ciclo estético de evolução da natureza

This is a theoretical paper that seeks to work, through interrelations, concepts relating to contemporary aesthetics in parallel to phenomenon of perception. It begins with the aesthetic interaction between content and form in order to trace the development of perceptionexpression interaction, inserted into the mutual action of its physical and psychical aspects "through behind" a thinking mind. In order to generalize such interaction to reality itself as a natural and evolutionary cycle, we start from the analysis of perception of more complex organic beings, endowed with consciousness, to extend the question to the simplest organic beings, as even to inorganics. It is based upon principles of equilibrium and unity in diversity to highlight a historical fact that it seems undeniable: that man evolves and this evolution, their perception clears, while that is particularized your experience and aesthetic judgment. Having in the art, the activity can boost an evolution more profound while pleasurable.

Interdependência entre os níveis de atenção do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS): significado de integralidade apresentado por trabalhadores da Atenção Primária

Integrality constitutes an important principle of the SUS, achieved through the struggles of the Brazilian health movement. It represents an expansion of the concepts of health and illness, to include the social determinants of healthcare needs. Intending to investigate the meanings of integrality reported by primary care workers, a study was developed in a medium-sized municipality in the state of São Paulo, concerning distinct technological work organization models in primary healthcare units. Among the results, the dimension of system integrality appeared with greatest frequency, according to analysis on focus groups. The workers pointed out difficulties in integration and communication between the healthcare levels, determined by selective social policies and medium/high-technology services delegated to the private market. The theoretical-philosophical framework of this study was based on cultural-historical psychology, taking into consideration the categories of work/activity, consciousness, mediation and totality.

The good news is that he does not present true impossibilities for this science, but his discussion leads to the (sound) conclusion that it would have to account for many unconscious factors that make us creative and human.
