ZULUAGA-DUQUE, John Fredy. Relationship between knowledge, wisdom and values: An effort to legitimize wisdom beyond the sciences. Revista Investig. Desarro. Innov. [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.1, pp.61-76. ISSN 2027-8306.  https://doi.org/10.19053/20278306.v8.n1.2017.5973.

This article shows how different types of scientific and technological knowledge are related to other kinds of knowledge; whether these are common sense, legitimate doxa, ancestral knowledge, humanistic, artistic, among others. It also analyzes the relationship between scientific knowledge, other knowledge and the values. This research proposes a science and a wisdom with conscience. It also proposes an inclusive epistemology that shows how scientific knowledge and other knowledge are not mutually exclusive, but complement each other. A large of number of knowledge, although transcending experimental control and the predictive and explanatory power of science and technology, proves to be fundamental to give meaning to human existence and to understand reality.

Keywords : knowledge; wisdom; doxa; values; ethics.
