SILVA, Jairo José da. Intellectual impostors: some reflections. Nat. hum. [online]. 2004, vol.6, n.1, pp. 87-99. ISSN 1517-2430.
in this paper I summarize some of the most relevant aspects of the so-called Sokal and Bricmont affair - a parody that evolved to a full-fledged criticism of the excesses of post-modernism - and analyze the reactions it elicited in some articles published in Folha de São Paulo. I close with a reflection on the unfortunate neglect of the exact sciences in education in general and, in particular, the education of philosophers and social scientists.
Palavras-chave : Post-modernism; Sokal and Bricmont.
