A relação entre ciência e ideologia em tempos de hegemonia financeira: a biotecnociência e o mercado de promessas by Leandro Módolo Paschoalotte

“…From the need to understand the systematic presence, in the most different media of scientific dissemination, of the figuration of the human being as being ontologically equal to other animals, mainly because of their molecular biological characteristics, such as genetic ones. This work seeks to put on the scene a critical theoretical approach about how the social construction of biotechnologies and the scientific discourses that underpin them are biased by subordination to the financial market, making in contemporary society the social relations between science and ideology are resignification. …”
