Nas trincheiras do método: o ensino da metodologia das ciências sociais no Brasil

Abstract: O artigo reflete sobre o ensino tradicional das ciências sociais no Brasil a partir do seguinte diagnóstico inicial: uma ênfase excessiva nos clássicos e na erudição em detrimento da pesquisa empírica. Em segundo lugar, pretende analisar o ensino da metodologia das ciências sociais no país, permeado por uma falsa oposição entre as técnicas quantitativas e qualitativas, que são elevadas à categoria de metodologias diferentes e inclusive contraditórias. Esta guerra metodológica salda-se, com frequência, com a de… Show more

“…In this perspective, the mission of science is to unveil this reality within its objectivity. This viewpoint, now quite overcome by the advancement of science in several areas, ignores the impossibility of a static world, one without continuous interference from observers/researchers 2,22 . Moreover, it seems that such a vision does not even consider the academic production guided by political, social and economic interests, which can lead the search towards some objects while dribbling around others [23][24][25] .…”

“…In "mathematics transcendental" Kant 40 said that every object has an extensiveness that can be counted and an intensity that needs to be understood. Cano 28 and Minayo 4 argue that the separation between quantitative methods and qualitative methods is artificial. The quantification or apparent difficulties in measurements is only external in nature, and is secondary to any study.…”

“…Sin embargo, este parece ser un "signo de época" en la investigación sociológica, como si se replicara de un modo distinto el consenso positivista de reproducción de la realidad, ahora por una estrategia multimétodo. Dicha postura, suele además dar por supuesto que "con más arsenal metodológico se demostrará mejor nuestros argumentos", o dicho de otro modo, asume que "más métodos" es sinónimo de "mayor validez" de las investigaciones 7 . A priori, nada indica que una estrategia multimétodo es mejor que una de un método único, es decir, que esto generaría mayor validez.…”
