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.
