Filosofía de la Liberación y epistemología: contribuciones a las ciencias sociales críticas.

Philosophy of liberation has aimed to build critical knowledge from the situation in Latin America. However, there have been considerably fewer efforts to epistemologically and methodologically ground a critical social science from this perspective. This article seeks to contribute to this question. Based on a study of Enrique Dussel's contributions, it proposes to distinguish the method as a theoretical rupture and as a methodological proposal. The treatment of these issues raises a set of crucial problems for the foundation of a critical social science program. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
