Com o advento do racionalismo, tendo como um dos principais precursores Rene Descartes, surge um novo modelo de pensar o mundo, colocando o pensamento logico acima de qualquer questao. As ideias de Descartes influenciaram diversos pensadores, entre os quais se destacam o holandes Spinoza e o alemao Leibniz . Leibniz era filosofo, matematico e politico. Dada esta inegavel contribuicao social e filosofica para o mundo moderno e fato que os desdobramentos contemporâneos do metodo e da racionalidade trouxeram consequencias negativas para a sociedade pos-moderna, nao pela teoria em si, mas pelo fato de que a sociedade sempre se apega aos modelos prontos, sem questionar ou contextualizar historicamente sua funcionalidade. Desta forma, com efeito, no qual carrega todo sistema sem distincao, na medida em que consistia em uma verdadeira exacerbacao do racionalismo, ao mesmo tempo, se deu o seu ponto de partida para o “declinio”. E entao a partir do inicio do seculo XX que comecam a tornarem-se visiveis as consequencias destrutivas da exacerbacao do pensamento racionalista. As intervencoes ambientais indistintamente por este Ser que acredita ser Deus, vao acumulando, na forma de riscos naturais por meio de suas consequencias deleterias e ao mesmo tempo ele vai se distanciando do contato intimista e subjetivo (sinais) com a natureza, culminando assim nos desastres ambientais de grandes proporcoes no mundo Pos-Modernos, que aqui chamamos de catarses ambientais em forma de barragens. Why is Logical Thinking (reason) Collapsing in our Heads? Environmental Catharses in the form of Dams A B S T R A C T With the advent of rationalism, with Rene Descartes as one of its main precursors, emerges a new model of thinking about the world, putting logical thinking above any question. The ideas of Rene Descartes influenced several thinkers, among them the Dutchman Spinoza and the German Leibniz. Leibniz was a philosopher, mathematician, and politician. Given this undeniable social and philosophical contribution to the Modern world, it is a fact that the contemporary unfoldings of method and rationality have brought negative consequences to Postmodern society, not by the theory itself, but by the fact that society always clings to models without questioning and historically contextualizing their functionality. As all the system carries its own germ of destruction, insofar as it consisted in a true exacerbation of rationalism, at the same time, it became the starting point for the "decline". It is at the beginning of the twentieth century when the destructive consequences of the exacerbation of rationalist thinking start to become visible. The environmental interventions indistinctly made by this Being that believes himself to be God, accumulate in the form of natural risks through its deleterious consequences and at the same time distances itself from intimate and subjective contact (signs) with nature, culminating in the environmental disasters of great proportions in the Post-Modern world, hereby called environmental catharsis in the form of dams.
