In the interview, the prestigious intellectual deals with several aspects related to his career and the respective lines of research, education and teaching and the promotion of science in a national and international context, addressing standards, controversies and critical inflections in different dimensions of scientific work such as social practice and, therefore, a means of its transformation.
