Hacia un pluralismo inteligente: Respuesta a juan andrés moraes

Abstract

We need to learn how to argue without inflicting harm. We must be able to discuss fraternally about the challenges of political science in Uruguay. The article that motivated the reply never intended to offend anyone. The article sought to verbalize some of the problems and challenges that recent research on the evolution of the Uruguayan political science have carefully noted. It is not true that our call for pluralism implies a comfortable and parochial view of political science. The defense of pluralism does not mean giving up academic standards but simply admitting that there are many “good” ways to make global political science. The epistemological, theoretical and methodological diversity far from being a problem represents a wonderful opportunity.
