Georges Canguilhem y las prácticas del conocimiento

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a re-reading of Canguilhem´s work that focuses on: 1) What he has recovered from Bachelard´s epistemology in order to postulate an “epistemological history”; 2) The dissents between Bachelar and Canguilhem about the relations between science and Philosophy, as well as our own evaluation of both legacies; 3)The ways in which Canguilhem´s Philosophy may evolve the practices of knowledge in the sciences and disciplines of life, health and subject, as well as possible articulations between Canguilhem´s philosophy of life, his epistemological history, with the present theoretical debates and the practical challenges in these sciences and disciplines.
