description | This paper intends to relect on the use of theories and methods in social sciences and history. For many authors these two components seemed irreconcilable in
the development of a research work, it looked like some used the theory, while the work of others was to compile the ile information. This was made throughout the
twentieth Century, history and social sciences wandered off between formal concepts and data collection, leaving huge gaps in the research process. In that vein, the
contributions of Michel Foucault are important in his dedication to the ile and the theoretical analysis of social reality, which have allowed him to explain other realities
that were out of traditional structures. In this way, the method gets closer to the relections about language and culture, which provides innovative aspects in the
treatment of society and, especially of human groups that are out of the “normal” context of society. |
