Abstract: OrganizersInternationalization, one of the main flags of scientific research today, almost always refers to the search for partnerships with distant countries, most of which are Anglo-Saxon.This is no coincidence, as Europe has long been the reference point for philosophy.A quote attributed to Heidegger, in which he supposedly said that "one can only philosophize in Greek or German," encapsulates the essence of this stereotype.As a result, internationalization has become synonymous with access to European texts, archives, and universities.After the two world wars that devastated the European continent, we saw the rise of American hegemony and with it the need to read and publish in English, even though the United States does not have a tradition in the history of philosophy.Meanwhile, in Latin America, Portuguese and Spanish suffered (and still suffer) from a certain philosophical exile, since when published in these languages, texts rarely achieve a wider reach, even among fellow citizens of the same continent.This edition seeks to invite internationalization in Latin American terms, in this specific case, between Brazil and Uruguay.This issue is launched in the wake of an initiative by Revista Aoristo to establish philosophical dialogue between countries on the South American continent, which began with a publication in 2022 celebrating the philosophical friendship between Brazil and Chile.We intend to honor this legacy and encourage both contributors and readers to see us as relevant researchers in discussions that are on par with other international circuits.With texts that span two of the magazine's main themes, Phenomenology and Metaphysics, we have contributions from eight authors, four of whom are Brazilian and four Uruguayan.The thematic affinities are evident, beginning with the three articles that have Kant as their foundation.The first is on the autonomy of the faculty of judgment; the second explores the origin of metaphysical problems in the origin of Kantian criticism; and finally, we focus on the discussion about the possibility of the authority of reason in answering metaphysical questions.The questioning of metaphysics is also present in this issue in discussions that go beyond Kantian works, through Nietzsche, supported by the reading of Bernard William.On the border between metaphysics and phenomenology, we have an article dedicated to Franz Brentano's proposal of a "Zurük
