La investigación educativa hoy: en búsqueda de legitimación

Abstract

Current educational research must overcome serious epistemological conflicts that condition its development: incommensurability, difficulty of integration, relativism, among others. These questions arise because this research has justified its field and practice based on its own historicity. The presence of these problems has led to a task of seeking legitimacy; however, this legitimation continues to be based on the historicity of research and its productions. In this way, the research is enveloped in a circle from which it cannot leave unless the eyes of the researchers begin to transcend the field itself and its own practice.
