Miradas, formas de hacer y relaciones en la construcción de una investigacción crítica.

The processes of knowledge production are a central element in the me-
chanisms of governmentality of contemporary societies. In this context, the
social sciences are progressively incorporated into population management
strategies producing an homogenization of thought that operates from uni-
fied academic productivity criteria. The question of the validity of critical re-
search and intervention guides us to address the perspectives, ways of doing
and relationships that can characterize what we call the exercise of critical
research-action. An exploration that serves as a framework for discussion
of the articles that appear in the current issue of Universitas Psychologica.
