Filmes e os problemas filosóficos
Para todos aqueles que discordaram dos meus posts sobre a Formiga Z, eis uma lista que propõe alguns filmes para ilustrar problemas filosóficos. Nesta lista também aparece a Formiga Z, contrariando parcialmente a minha posição de que os métodos propostos pelo manual Pensar Azul para análise filosófica de problemas, são métodos vagos. E contradiz parcialmente visto que, nesta lista, a proposta do filme, aparece em o indivíduo versus sociedade / colectivo, que não corresponde de todo à tarefa que o manual em causa propunha. Mas esta lista também é útil para mostrar a controvérsia e discussão do programa de filosofia em Portugal, bem como das opções didácticas de alguns manuais. Um problema que merece de todo a discussão publica, pelo menos por parte dos agentes educativos ligados à filosofia. A lista foi elaborada por Barndon Rickabaugh, presidente da Philosophical Society de Santiago Canyon College.
