Abstract in Portuguese
A ciência teve um papel central naquilo que Max Weber chamou de desencantamento do mundo. O mundo da ciência é um mecanismo causal, um mundo de causas e efeitos inteligíveis, que funciona conforme leis racionais. Este é um mundo onde magia e religiões são banidas para o horizonte do irracional, e onde apenas o que é calculável e aplicável é racional. Ciência e técnica não podem conferir sentido a um mundo concebido dessa forma. No entanto, nos dias de hoje, nos deparamos com discursos que afirmam justamente o contrário, e o mais instigante neles é o fato de compreenderem a ciência e a tecnologia como os elementos principais que possibilitam um reencantamento do mundo. Visamos com este projeto apresentar uma sistematização das teorizações cujo foco é o reencantamento do mundo pela via científica e tecnológica mas não nos limitaremos a tal apresentação sistemática. Temos como objetivo mais amplo e central uma análise crítica de tais teorizações, que evidencie não apenas seus temas, enfoques e argumentos, mas também suas deficiências e impasses no que se refere ao diagnóstico que fazem do papel da ciência e da tecnologia no mundo contemporâneo

Abstract in English
Science has played a central role in what Max Weber called the disenchantment of the world. The world of science is a causal mechanism, a world of intelligible causes and effects which works according to rational laws. This is a world where magic and religions are banished to the horizon of the irrational, and where only what is calculable and usefull is rational. Science and technology cannot give meaning to a world conceived that way. However, nowdays, we face discourses that claim precisely the opposite, and the most exciting is the fact that they claim the science and technology as the key elements that enable to re-enchantment of the world. We aim with this project present a systematization of theories whose focus is the re-enchantment of the world through scientific and technological means but we will not limit ourselves to a systematic presentation. We have as a broader and central objective a critical analysis of such theories, evidencing not only their themes, approaches and arguments, but also its shortcomings and dilemmas regarding the diagnosis of the role of science and technology in the contemporary world
