HAMUI SUTTON, Mery. Actores, situaciones y relaciones en la construcción del ethos científico social en América Latina y México: 1940-2000. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2005, vol.20, n.58, pp.167-204. ISSN 2007-8358.
The aim of this article is to highlight the weight of the past in the “should”, the “what is”, and what scientists in Latin America and Mexico have done and are doing to build social knowledge. It shows how these academics have constructed a scientific ethos in which not only do theoretical and methodological matters weigh in, but there is also a background in which researchers identify, commit themselves and make sense out of their work with profound moral seriousness and devotion. In that framework, the interdependently overlapping situations are defined by three dimensions that can only be distinguished analytically: 1) the time in which scientific social knowledge has been cultivated; 2) its insertion in space, which is the territory that frames it; and 3) the relationship of researchers in history and in their surroundings.
