JUSTICE AND EQUITY IN PUBLIC EXAMS

Imagem
Today we are going to talk about Mathematical Logical Reasoning. As we call it here in Brazil, RLM is undoubtedly a very arduous subject for those preparing for Civil Service Exams in pursuit of better career opportunities—in other words, employability. The level of RLM questions in Brazil is extremely strict, at least in our context. I believe it is no different in other countries. Our Civil Service Exams have been addressing highly advanced perspectives, with Herculean difficulty. Covering combinations, probabilities, and propositions, it is important to understand that RLM is not taught in public schools; rather, Mathematics is. It is similar to what happens with Law graduates: universities do not produce lawyers, but rather law graduates, who may then take the OAB exam—the Brazilian Bar Association—to register with the professional body, since these are different environments of practice. The same applies to Mathematics and RLM. The greatest enemy of beginners in RLM is the fam...

THE PUZZLE THAT IS THE WORLD

Let’s go to the weekly summary: nothing. Nothing seems to solve some of the issues we face, and we want quick solutions for complex problems. In the end, all you need to know is that complex numbers fit complex problems. And with that, resolution becomes possible. Mathematics teaches us that problems are solvable, and what I see missing in us is engagement in a single vision, a shared purpose. Interests are still not aligned in many aspects of the organic life of the social fabric we call Society. Meanwhile, in Eurasia, negotiations for Peace continue. The U.S. announces at least a week-long ceasefire, which would be “extraordinary” given the climate and conditions. Ukraine claims it has not been formally notified. What? That is absurd—any path toward non-violence is the right path, and responding that it was not notified was a lost opportunity to say YES to ending the War. As stated by the U.S. in relation to Russia, Ukraine wastes clear opportunities to improve the situation. There...

SARDINES, YES! SHARK, NO!

In recent days, I’ve been reflecting on how everyone suddenly became a “specialist” in Geopolitics. The issues most present across the globe are the geopolitical situations of all nations. And then comes the debate, with everyone discussing whether a certain authority acted or failed to act. Time, undoubtedly running out for all of us, is also responsible for the choices we make in the present. For these reasons, let us talk here about Multilateralism. Multilateralism is the practice of coordinating diplomatic policies among multiple States. The proposal is sound, and the game is almost won, but there are observations to be made. Its opposite is unilateralism. Inevitably, unilateralism is a setback within a global system of negotiations. That is why it is necessary to avoid decisions that are not collective, especially in the international sphere. The matter is simple: the radical possibility of unilateralism—no matter which country pursues it—harms the flow of business. We have evol...

SOCIAL INEQUALITY: CURRENT AND FUTURE TIMES

Imagem
Today’s topic on our Blog is Social and Economic Inequality. When speaking of inequality, one must understand that the notion of disparity and contrasts is of utmost importance in identifying what is unequal. That said, Social Inequality is one of the greatest challenges in the world. In 2025, Brazil reported that the richest 10% concentrated about 59% of the national income, while the poorest 50% held only 10%. On a global scale, 1% of the population controls more than 45% of the world’s wealth. Global statistics indicate that 700 million people live below the poverty line—less than $2.15 per day. This severely impacts education. In low-income countries, only 25% of girls complete high school. In the health sector, in poorer regions, life expectancy can be up to 20 years shorter than in wealthy countries. At these levels, social violence tends to increase, coupled with economic crises. Sustainable growth becomes unlikely, as a large portion of the population cannot consume. Furtherm...

LOCALIZED CESSATION SIGNED: WHAT'S NEXT?

Yesterday – January 16 – a localized ceasefire was signed between Ukraine and Russia to allow repairs on the Zaporizhzhya power lines. With this, what can we expect from negotiations aimed at expanding peace missions that need to be established in the conflict region? The answer: the demarcation of the new Donbass border, recognized by all of us as a region belonging to Russia. With that, a new delineation must and needs to be carried out by the UN Peacemakers. The Blue Helmets enter into the determination of the border, knowing that Ukraine has lost one-fifth of its territory, and now finds itself within a new general dividing line, one that is recognized worldwide. This is what happens first, because if there is no territorial concession, the deadlock will never end, tending toward escalation—something we truly do not want, since if that happens, everyone loses. Relations on the Planet are felt in a general, holistic way that impacts everything and everyone. This is reflected in th...

THE COMPLEMENTARY REGIME OF THE MILLENNIUM

You may ask yourself: Are these days dark? And the answer will always depend on whom you ask—because we live in society. Today’s theme is Society in a general sense. In our current era, a large number of States operate under democratic systems. Democracy, therefore, is the central pillar of many United Nations member states. However, democracy alone is not enough, as it contains gaps and flaws. As a complement, I advocate for the Regime of the Millennium, which, as stated, is supplementary to Democracy. The structure of this complementary regime consists of blocs within each UN member state, focused on International Affairs. This means that Democracy cannot be abandoned, but rather must be enhanced. For this reason, the Complementary Regime of the Millennium is a clear trend for deepening dialogue within the Society of Progress. When we speak of the Complementary Regime, we refer to local bases in each capital city, with representatives from different sectors of society on a planetary...

PLANETARY EDUCATIONAL MATRIX

The Planetary Educational Matrix urgently needs to be built. We are long past the time to evolve educational values on a global scale. At the structural pillar of this proposal lies the Dignity of the Human Person. Life cannot be lived merely for survival; dignity must be present in the very way we continue to breathe. In this climate of progress, many still have nothing to eat and die of hunger. Yes! We live on a planet of contrasts. While hunger kills thousands of people, we witness scenes driven by rivalries of interest. Interests, as the primary parameter of the Millennium, must be aligned with the notion of Collectivity. We are, however, encountering barriers in the Construction of Collectivity. No! You are not different from the other who also seeks survival. You and the other share the same intention: to survive peacefully in danger zones—zones which, indeed, must cease to be considered as such. Furthermore, we must return to organized multilateral relations, understanding that...
