Abstract
CAMILLO, Juliano and MATTOS, Cristiano Rodrigues de. Ensaio sobre as relações entre Educação, Ciência e Sociedade a partir da perspectiva do desenvolvimento humano. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2019, vol.25, e19851. Epub Feb 11, 2019. ISSN 1981-0431. https://doi.org/10.26512/lc.v25.2019.19851.
"Relevance of science" is our object in this essay. We propose that from it we can understand the conceptualizations about interconnections between Education, Science, and Society. From this principle, we discuss four forms of relevance: "Science, institutional consolidation and mastery of nature"; "Science and participation"; "Science, one more way to know the world, but dangerous"; and "Science and Human Development". The first three, despite being relatively autonomous, constitute a prelude to the fourth, insofar as they explain some of the most widespread conceptions (and their associated problems) about the relations between Education, Science, and Society. In the last part, the issue around the relationship between Science and Human Development is taken from an ontological perspective.
