This methodological changement a rupture in the discipline. From a epistemological perspective this arguments are very significant because they answer the mentioned objections against the use of the experimental method in the anthropology domain and social sciences.

El método experimental es criticado y usualmente dejado de lado en las ciencias sociales por distintas razones. Sin embargo, al intentar resolver ciertos problemas algunos investigadores de Antropología Biológica -inicialmente Washburn y Pucciarelli recurrieron al método experimental. Este cambio metodológico significo una ruptura en la disciplina. Desde una perspectiva epistemológica esos planteos son muy significativos pues contestan las objeciones mencionadas contra la utilización del método experimental en el ámbito de la antropología y de las ciencias sociales. También es muy importante en la historia de la ciencia, tanto por la consolidación de la concepción experimental en la Antropología Biológica como por el establecimiento, dentro de esa comunidad en Argentina, de una nueva estrategia de investigación con los consiguientes episodios de cambios en esta comunidad científica. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/runa/article/view/1261 10.34096/runa.v24i1.1261 spa Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, UBA https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/runa/article/view/1261/1217 RUNA, archivo para las ciencias del hombre; Vol. 24 No. 1 (2003); 7-26 RUNA, archivo para las ciencias del hombre; Vol. 24 Núm. 1 (2003); 7-26 RUNA, archivo para las ciencias del hombre; v. 24 n. 1 (2003); 7-26 1851-9628 0325-1217 Anthropology Biological Anthropology Experimental Method Methodology of Social Sciences History of Sciences Antropología Antropología Biológica Método experimental Metodología de las Ciencias Sociales Historia de las Ciencias The development and consolidation of the experimental paradigm in Biological Anthropology El desarrollo y consolidación del paradigma experimental en Antropología Biológica info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículos evaluados por pares https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=runa&d=1261_oai
