For a science free of the politics to abolish the politicsKeywords: Matters of interest , Scientific thought , Biodiesel Abstract: The purpose of this text is to present historiographically some ideas about the crossroads where the scientific thought (reason) and the idea of citizenship (politics) seem to acquire their distinctions. The narrative will be carried out by means of the search for the articulation of three distinct periods of time: A) the present: in which the anchor is the controversy about renewable fuel. B) The institution of rationality and the absolute cartesian certainty and C) Plato’s forged agreements to justify the idea of citizenship. At the end, a discussion about the scientific thought is carried out. The theoretical background is connected to the relativistic considerations by Bruno Latour, in particular the concept of “matters of interest”. O objetivo deste texto é (ex)por historiograficamente algumas idéias acerca da encruzilhada na qual o pensamento científico (raz o) e a idéia de cidadania (política) parecem ganhar suas distin es. A narrativa se dará pela busca da articula o de três tempos distintos. A) A atualidade: na qual a ancora é a controvérsia acerca de combustíveis renováveis. B) A institui o da racionalidade e da certeza absoluta carteziana e C) Os acordos forjados por Plat o para justificar a idéia de cidadania. No final do texto, discute-se a própria concep o de pensamento científico. O pano de fundo teórico articula-se às considera es relativistas de Bruno Latour, em particular o conceito de “matérias de interesse”.
