CASAS, Rosalba; CONTRERAS, Óscar F.; HUALDE, Alfredo y PUGA, Cristina. Social Sciences and the Pandemic in Mexico: Conventional Responses to Unprecedented Emergencies?. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2022, vol.67, n.244, pp.45-72. Epub 17-Abr-2023. ISSN 0185-1918. https://doi.org/10.22201/fcpys.2448492xe.2022.244.81237.
For decades, the subject of how to carry out research in order to generate knowledge applicable to the solution of society’s issues has been debated in social sciences. The Covid-19 pandemic that began in the spring of 2020 rattled the organization and ways of life of societies all over the globe. Social sciences were quick to respond to the need for explanations on the causes, consequences, and alternatives regarding the sanitary crisis. This article analyzes a series of initiatives which social scientists developed in Mexico. The concept-axis that lies at the core of this analysis is that of the mobilization of knowledge, which adapts to the purposes of this work. The actions undertaken by academic centers dedicated to social sciences across the country for the mobilization of knowledge have contributed to generating and spreading useful knowledge for decision-making during the emergency.
