Dialogues on the subjective dimension in times of the coronavirus pandemic

Abstract

The coronavirus (Covid‑19) arrived and installed a worldwide pandemic, like a whirlwind overturning the lives of people, institutions and countries, without an ideological component, economic condition and social discrimination. As a response of centuries of dominance of science over nature, together with the pandemic, the Amazon and the Pantanal mourn the extermination of animals and forests, as an expression of violence against Mother Earth. The son of man and the woods reach the limit, denouncing how much the logic of profit destroys the land and its inhabitants. How does a pandemic affect minds and hearts? How does the shock of the Coronavirus pandemic critically alert our civilizing ways of producing knowledge and acting on nature building culture? The text aims to raise points of reflection in which life in a pandemic affects our daily lives, our feelings, attitudes, ways of being and acting, as points of intersection between psychology and society, having as an ethical and political parameter, education in human rights.
