PACHECO-MENDEZ, Teresa. Social Sciences Measured By ICT. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2017, vol.12, n.34, pp.179-195. ISSN 1850-0013.

Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) have decisively and relentlessly become a part of the social world, upheaving everyday cultural landmarks. This process has brought new meanings to certain regulations in social interaction and exchange, expressing itself in new, temporary and even potentially renewable ways with and vis-à-vis ICT. Consequently, this situation poses new challenges for the traditional methods in the production and implementation of social knowledge. The goal is to propose a methodological perspective that will identify the main cognitive challenges associated with social knowledge -taken as an area in constant transformation-, in order to evaluate the new social interaction and exchange processes driven by the technological intervention.

Keywords : Society; Culture; Social knowledge; Information and communications technologies.
