Hacia un concepto de ciencia intercultural

Abstract

An extensive review of the bibliography on intercultural science is presented. In the past decade, this topic has provoked a lively de­bate within the international community, which is committed to the study of science education, especially in Anglo-Saxon culture. The shortage of works published in Spain on intercultural science, as compared to the important cultural diversity existing in our country, together with the addition of the recent phenomenon of immigration, calls for the revision of the topic and the promotion of investigation in this line of work. The existing outlines and resulting debates are analysed, relating them as an integrated topic within the science-technology-society fields.
