Contribution
This paper will present the theoretical bases of the critical communicative methodology. On the one hand the suitability of this type of methodology in a society which requires more dialogue will be discussed, and on the other hand it will be presented as a way to contribute to overcoming social inequalities. In the paper the different postulates of the critical communicative methodology were described: the universality of language and action, people as transformative social agents, communicative rationality, common sense, no interpretative hierarchy, equal epistemological levels and dialogical knowledge. In each of these postulates there will be a theoretical discussion held, on the authors on which each of them is based and which of these surpass their approaches (Habermas, Giddens, Chomsky, and Searle, amongst others). Communicative organisation will also be described as a form which facilitates research teams being able to carry out this methodology. Likewise, special emphasis will be placed on the aspects which argue how intersubjective dialogue between the people being researched and the researchers creates scientific knowledge.
