Conocimiento, democracia y riesgo epistémico. Una propuesta de epistemología política
Barra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
- En este trabajo propongo una concepción del conocimiento y de la democracia y de sus mutuas relaciones que supone que el valor de ambos no es intrínseco ni tampoco instrumental. Ambas formas de orden, epistémico en un caso, social en otro, son formas contingentes e históricas cuyo valor, por separado y en sus mutuas relaciones, depende de trayectorias constitutivas cuya legitimación debe encontrarse en las dinámicas de las relaciones sociales de dependencia mutua. Tanto el conocimiento como la democracia son espacios de conflicto tanto como de cooperación que se desarrollan en dinámicas de acciones y planes bajo condiciones de riesgo. El riesgo epistémico es el modo en que se manifiestan las diversas modalidades de vigilancia y control reflexivo colectivo. La tesis general es que la democracia es un sistema que puede servir para fortalecer la vigilancia epistémica y por ello abrir posibilidades de resistencia contra las injusticias epistémicas.
