Abstract

The article analyzes the relations between humanistic and cultural subjects in the context of the current Brazilian crisis, which deepened the weakness of public institutions of higher education in Brazil. It also reflects on the impact of the transformation of the modern cultural canon in this area of knowledge, to which the weakening of the institutional sphere is added. In this perspective, it draws attention to the impasses of the area, both from the process of appreciation of the technical and experimental domain, as well as the professions directly linked to the market, which produce new challenges to the knowledge geared to the treatment of social phenomena and culture compelled to rethink their analytical framework and their consolidated research problems.
