The goal of this article is to study some of the denominations used in libertarian discourse in order to construct an adversary, establishing new demarcation criteria regarding the traditional political divisions. We deal with the concepts of casta and progresista and their derivatives (progre, progresía), which refer to the main antagonists in the imaginary of libertarianism. These political concepts are part of a wider transnational lexicon. From the perspective of political lexicology and discourse analysis, we explore the trajectory of these political concepts, their international and national circulation, their contemporary uses and their consolidation as a discursive formula.

This article constructs an understanding of the Brazilian middle classes using economic, sociological, and cultural factors. It argues that the so-called new middle class is actually an expanded vulnerable class, and that the middle classes are simultaneously conscious and in denial of injustice toward the lower classes. The argument is based on an accidental biographical ethnography: reinterpretation of a field journal and the use of one person to understand broader trends. The resulting textual product juxtaposes biographical passages with theoretical analysis, deviating from traditional article structures to share the voice of the biographical participant while also critically examining the implications of this voice.

This paper examines the theory and history of cultural policy, a discourse from the Enlightenment threatened by the new rights discourse on creative industries. This discourse is the most interesting and productive answer to the humanities' relevance crisis and the emergence of a knowledge society. It then offers a brief case study on related environmental issues, with the scope of underlining the risks that arise when industrial priorities rule over cultural ones. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
