  • Vol. 19 No. 56 (2024)

    July 2024 - This issue of Revista Iberoamericana de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad —CTS presents a dossier that addresses some topics of enormous relevance in the current regional and international context: the multiple ways in which science and technology are involved in gender issues, and the multiple ways in which gender redefines what we understand by scientific-technological work. To this end, different texts by authors from Ibero-America are presented. The articles that make up the dossier of this edition emerged from some of the symposia of the last Ibero-American Congress on Science, Technology and Gender, held in Madrid in 2023. Specifically, the symposiums "Algorithmic injustice. Gender biases in artificial intelligence and ethical and educational challenges", "Science communication from a feminist perspective" and "Sustainability and equity versus neoliberalism and patriarchy", which give a palpable idea of the topics covered in these pages.

  • Vol. 19 No. 55 (2024)

    March 2024 - In this issue of Revista Iberoamericana de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad —CTS, a dossier on a topic of great contemporary importance is presented: the discussion on the different ways of doing science. And for this, a high-level set of contributions is available. As Professor José Luis Luján -in charge of coordinating this dossier- points out, the question of whether there is a single way to carry out research that fits the standard of what is scientific, and that allows us to distinguish it from those that do not, it is not only important for those who are dedicated to epistemic issues. Being a question that has aroused interest within the most classical circles of philosophy of science, the questions that it brings up also have repercussions on other areas of human experience. At a time when it is increasingly difficult to discriminate truthful information from that which is the product of bias and post-truth, the question of whether there is a way to discriminate between good and bad knowledge, between rigorous and poorly developed research, becomes a pressing problem for all.

  • Vol. 18 No. 52 (2023)

    March 2023 - This issue of Revista Iberoamericana de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad —CTS contains a heterogeneous group of articles that analyze various case studies from different theoretical and practical perspectives. The different methodologies used in the field of STS research, both quantitative and qualitative, allow us to approach particular realities from which we can also think about other spaces and environments. Scientific-technological controversies, the ways of researching, producing technology or teaching science have unique characteristics that depend on the context in which they occur, although they also have characteristics shared by other sociocultural environments that make it possible to draw generalizable conclusions. In this issue we approach realities as diverse and as close as the ones in Spain, Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, Mexico and Argentina, based on contributions from researchers from different academic institutions. STS studies are more valid than ever, since they help us understand our particular reality from the Ibero-American perspective.

  • Vol. 17 No. 51 (2022)

    November 2022 - Without improving education, the troubles of our present and the uncertainty of our future will only become larger. Based on this knowledge, Revista Iberoamericana de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad —CTS offers a new dossier: "The STS perspective on education". There are different aspects of daily life that give increasing importance to this approach: on the one hand, environmental deterioration and the need to attain sustainability for all societies; on the other, an intense technification of life. The siege of algorithms that try to drive our decisions and the enormous diversity of information channels forces authorities, experts and teachers to strengthen the guidance of students towards the achievement of critical and independent thinking. In total, 31 authors from different origins (Spain, Portugal, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Panama and Ecuador) take part in the 12 articles of this dossier, a number that shows that science can be built upon the shoulders of regional teamwork. This new edition of CTS also presents two miscellaneous articles: "Cooperative Mechanisms in the Implementation of Science and Technology Policies: An Analysis of LENERSE from the Perspective of Complex Associative Systems", by M. E. Giraldo and E. Zárate Toledo, and "Comparing Measurement Methodologies for the Quality of Higher Education", by C. Partal, M. T. Gorjup and H. Vigier.
