Abstract

We have seen, in recent times, na increase in old and permanent abusive acts in various parts of the world and also in Brazil. Along with the pandemic, we witnessed another element that constitutes an attitude of individuals in relation to knowledge. Bion (1958/1993) called this attitude arrogance. Therefore, the present work intends to explain this attitude and its relation with knowledge and truth.
