In Brazil we live a kind of paradox: at the same time that the material conditions of life improve, we have the sensation of experiencing a kind of “moral crisis”, which manifests itself from the relationships between people to the relationships between who governs and who is governed.

Was there really a "moral crisis" that we should be concerned with? Or is it just a distorted perception, a product of our difficulty in identifying and understanding the formation of new values, replacing the values ​​of a traditional society?

It is around these issues that the essays gathered in this book, the second in the Culture of Transgressions in Brazil series, revolve around that iFHC and ETCO carry out in partnership.

The presentation was made by André Franco Montoro Filho and Fernando Henrique Cardoso.
