This lecture explores the definition of beliefs and how social sciences have developed categories to evoke and understand belief mechanisms. It delves into the distinction between 'teoria' and 'doxa' in Greek language, the influence of beliefs on behavior, the classification of beliefs, the relationship between science and beliefs, and the reasons why individuals continue to hold beliefs despite contradictory evidence.
