Resumen

ESCALANTE BETANCOURT, Yuri. Réplica a: "Para construir casas". La restauración dialógica. Intervención (Méx. DF) [online]. 2011, vol.2, n.4, pp.15-17. ISSN 2007-249X.

This text aims to be a eulogy to the occupations of artistic restoration and applied anthropology, acknowledging the relation of both as plenary sciences, applying a method which must be consubstantial in the making of knowledge, constantly debating with social groups. The paper puts forward, as Gadamer once said, that the understanding does not lie in rules or norms manipulated by an investigator but recovers the interpretative horizons of subjects.
