POST 4: What is your favorite subject at the university?
Today I´m going write about my
favorite subject at the University.
The name of my favorite subject is “Epistemología
de las Ciencias Sociales”, which is a branch of philosophy that studies
the science, from critical thinking.
Professor M ° José Reyes is fabulous, far one of the
most dedicated teachers I have had since I entered the University.
In this subject, we talk about the study of the logic, methods, and foundations of social sciences such as
psychology, economics, and political science. Philosophers of social science
are concerned with the differences and similarities between the social and the natural sciences, causal
relationships between social phenomena, the possible existence of social laws,
and the ontological significance
of structure and agency.
As seen in classes, the main idea of the field is
based on making the authors talk, with the idea of being able to understand
their critical point of view regarding a specific topic, some topics are:
positivism, falsificationism, social sciences from the epistemology, etc.
Some authors referenced in classes are: Comte, Popper, Kuhn, Feyerabend,
Lakatos, etc.
I loved this class, because I feel it is amazing to
have authors dialogue, and through this we can all make our opinions about it.
Something specific that I liked about this class is sitting in a circle, the
teacher-student relationship is much closer. The way to evaluate is through
tests in pairs and debates!
