Abstract

Since the last two decades of the 20th century, the social sciences have been trying to overcome explanatory models based on dichotomies and polarities, often bearing judgements. The overcoming of these models or paradigms, abstract constructions that say more about themselves than about the studied empirical universes, has been possible, on the one hand, by the adoption of new comprehensive and interpretative references, and, because of the very multifaceted and complex dynamics of social phenomena in contemporary society.
