Abstract

LOPEZ BORGES, Zenaida; DIAZ MACHADO, Kisimira  and  MOYA PADILLA, Nereyda Emilia. The Social Appropriation of Knowledge and its articulation with the scientific-technological culture from León Olivé's epistemological perspective. Rev Hum Med [online]. 2023, vol.23, n.3  Epub Dec 02, 2023. ISSN 1727-8120.

León Olivé is considered one of the most important contemporary philosophers of science and researchers in Mexico and Latin America. His epistemology is distinguished by the contributions made in research areas such as: epistemology and philosophy of science, the analysis of intercultural relations and the study of the relationship between science, technology and society. He resorted to pluralism as an epistemic approach to examine Latin American multicultural contexts, where scientific-technological knowledge coexists with traditional knowledge; this allowed him to develop a novel conception of innovation through Social Innovation Networks (SIN). Based on these arguments, the aim of this article is to analyze the articulation between the categories of Social Appropriation of Knowledge (ASC) and scientific-technological culture from a pluralist epistemological perspective. Document analysis constituted the main method for the synthetic reconstruction of the content under study.

Keywords : Social appropriation of knowledge; innovation; Social Innovation Networks; scientific-technological culture; pluralism.
