2019Abstract
The aim of this paper is to defend a view of the philosophy of science as a practice that should reflect not only about the disciplinary classical topics: science methodology, the practice of model construction, explanation or relations with technology. Philosophy of science should reflect also on the directions science might take and the goals sought, and ponder; as well, must include questions concerning who should make these decisions and in accordance with what procedures to promote a more inclusive and democratic science. It’s an agenda that includes gender and ethical topics and a commitment with responsible research and innovation in the context of our
democratic societies.
