RONCALLO-DOW, Sergio; URIBE-JONGBLOED, Enrique e CALDERON- REYES, Isabel. Research in Communication: Knowledge limits and limitations. Co-herencia [online]. 2013, vol.10, n.18, pp.161-187. ISSN 1794-5887.
This article seeks to debate questions regarding the field of studies of Communication, its subject matter, and the target audience for its advances. Beyond questioning the what and why of communication, it questions the role of bibliometrics as sufficient criteria to determine research quality, and proposes opening a public debate with the research advances of the field. The debate draws from epistemic aspects of the field of studies and criticizes the positivistic perspective currently embraced by national policies on science and technology. Finally, the article proposes a wider perspective on the issues relevant to communication and raises questions about scienciometry as quality criterion.
