• Resumen

  • What role do models play in scientific investigations? What characteristics must a model display to be regarded as a scientific model? How do models operate in the human sciences and what is their impact on human actions? These are some of the questions that give rise to the discussions proposed by Luiz Henrique de Araújo Dutra (2021) in his work Pragmática de Modelos, whose third edition was recently published by Editora Agriya.
