- Title
Historia y ética en los métodos científicos de las Ciencias Sociales.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the creation of methodologies in relation to history and ethics in scientific methods of the sciences. The author discusses how in the past, orthodoxy narrowed the social science methodology down to operationalism, which lacked reference to the theory that is was based upon. Currently, there exists a general consensus that methods cannot substitute for theory, according to the author. The object of the social sciences is of an inconclusive and contradictory nature and the social sciences have stayed permanently dissociated and open. Methods of the natural sciences can be based upon a theoretic design or practice initiated through physical, chemical or biological means, contends the author.
