*UMMER SCHOOL "LEARNING FROM THE SOUTH: TOWARDS INTERCULTURAL TRANSLATIONS"*

*CURIA, PORTUGAL, JUNE 30TH – JULY 8TH, 2014*



This international summer school is part of a larger political and
intellectual initiative, the *ALICE* <http://alice.ces.uc.pt/en/> project.
At its outset, ALICE seeks to re-think and renovate socio-scientific
knowledge in light of the epistemologies of the South, proposed by
Boaventura de Sousa Santos. The objective is to develop new theoretical and
political paradigms of social transformation. This summer course is
composed of several seminars, all of them conducted in English.

Haunting Europe, and the Global North as a whole, there is a sentiment of
intellectual and political exhaustion which translates as incapacity to
confront innovatively the various challenges of justice that interpellate
the world in the first decades of the twenty-first century: social,
environmental, inter-generational, cultural, historical and cognitive
justice. In contrast, the Global South, in its immense diversity, presents
itself today as a wide field of economic, social, cultural, and political
innovation.
ALICE is grounded on a wager that social, political and institutional
change may largely benefit from the innovations occurring in the Global
South. A demanding wager, to be sure, for it presupposes availability for
mutual recognition, intercultural understanding, political and ideological
convergence, respect for identity, and celebration of diversity.
