TRAMA, URDIDURA E REGULAÇÃO: UM INSTRUMENTO PARA AS CIÊNCIAS *SOCIAIS

Abstract

This article aims at a subjective review of theoretical reflections and pedagogic
practices which make use of the notion of “regulation". After replacing
the problem in the french intelectual context of the last twenty years, regulation
is first presented in reference to the concepts of contradiction and crisis, based
on a literary example (the amorous relationship in Le Misanthrope). Finally, the
same discussion is proposed through the example of capitalistic accumulation
and the social production of space.
