Disputas científicas que transbordam para o campo da Ética em pesquisa: entrevista com Maria Cecília de Souza Minayo

Résumé 0

"This is an interview with Maria Cecília de Souza Minayo, by university lecturers Iara Coelho Zito Guerriero and Maria Lúcia Magalhães Bosi. It re - flects the heat of the current debates surrounding implementation of a specific protocol for evalua - tion of research in the Human and Social Sciences (HSS), vis-à-vis the current rules set by the Na - tional Health Council, which have a clearly bio - medical bias. The interview covers the difficulties of introducing appropriate and fair rules for judg - ment of HSS projects, in the face of a hegemonic understanding of the very concept of science by bi - ologists and medical doctors, who tend not to rec - ognize other approaches unless those approaches adopt their frames of reference. In this case, the National Health Council becomes the arena of this polemic, leading researchers in the human and social sciences to ask themselves whether the health sector has the competency to create rules for other areas of knowledge."
