SCRIBANO, Adrián. Poserty, philosophy and social sciences towards an análisis of the ontological suppositions of the studies about poserty. Cuad. Fac. Humanid. Cienc. Soc., Univ. Nac. Jujuy [online]. 2000, n.15, pp.97-119. ISSN 1668-8104.

In the last two decades of the past century the phenomenon of poserty has shown an extensive and intensive growth. On one hand there are more people who have little money and on the other hand, there are new sectors added to this category who are considered poor. This situation has originated different studies about the phenomenon, generating arguments and theories about the possibilities of the knowledge that the social sciences have about it. Especially in Argentina different interpretations were carried out whose differences were originated in the methodological as web as in the determination of the unities of analices or in the use of different theoretical frames. This work synthesizes the first dicoseries of a research work that is being carried out, analizing the world images that is being carried out, analizing the world images that suppose the different focussing on poserty in our country in 1990s. Zhough the present research work has an epistemological foundation, it also tries to show poserty has ontological suppositions. This communication has two main objetives. One explains the ontological content of the studies about poserty and the other is about the thinking of the critical attitude of phylosophy in a disciplinary field of deep practical consecuences. In this sense it will be kept in mind: first, that theories have certain descriptions of "how the poor is", second, an análisis of the ontological dimension that gives a reflection about the ways things exist, tus allowing the análisis of the components, pre and meta theory of theories. Finally, through this médium it, is posible to rethink in a different way, the epistemological practice both in phylosophy and in the social sciences.
