ECHEVERRIA, Javier. Societies of Knowledge and Values: León Olivé’s Project. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2018, vol.13, n.38, pp.183-203. ISSN 1850-0013.

This paper analyzes the evolution of León Olivé’s thought from his first contributions to epistemology to his important contributions to STS studies. It also highlights his contributions to the social philosophy of science and to the axiology of science and technology, and refers to some of the main collaborations between Olivé and the author of this work as promoters of Ibero- American knowledge-based communities. Finally, it highlights the importance of the Euro- Mexican project promoted by Olivé around knowledge societies and cultural diversity.
