Del investigador social al ciudadano real: la difusión como enlace y problematización de las ciencias sociales

Abstract:

My paper is inserted into the questioning and the debate to which the Social Sciences have been submitted during the last years, and it has a specific focus: the diffusion of social knowledge. To explain this, I start with a brief review of the origin of Social Sciences, in order to make it evident that since the very beginning, the scientific theories and contributions of the social scientist have been the product of control policies that have been directed to what investigate, who write for, and how much to diffuse. Then after, it takes hold of school, main transmitter of social knowledge, as the place where the fragmentation of the social theory that gets there, is exhibited.
