- 2015 October 23, Bruno Moraes Cabral, ““Desobedecer à praxe”: a crítica da obediência universitária”, in esquerda.net[1]:
- Para muitos, a praxe trata-se de uma simples diversão estudantil. Para outros é mesmo um marco importante para determinar uma nova fase de vida, e até uma aprendizagem para toda a vida. Serão as praxes o que muitas vezes parecem ao longe, meras brincadeiras burlescas e inofensivas? Constituem, pelo menos em parte, um sistema de integração legítimo e eficaz? O que é afinal a praxe académica?
