Abstract

Two thinkers who represent two major European traditions, Jürgen Habermas y Michel Foucault, are revisited to inquire on the locus and direction of contemporary research into the scientific discourse. They both share their pursuit of a personal elaboration of these questions beyond the constraints of conventional ontologies and jurisdictions. For this purpose, they built a meta-theoretical level of reflection that, being speculative, will probably keep its topicality in the future.
