Resumen
ROZO C., Jairo A.. The Problem about Consciousness. Contribution of a Strategic Vision in the XXI Century. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2007, vol.25, n.2, pp.163-178. ISSN 1794-4724.
This article starts by recognizing the difficulty of studying conscience from its definition and from the way many philosophers and scientists have approached it throughout the history. Then, we make a small review of the conscience “ boom” and the recent approaches that have been proposed since the last decades of the past century. We conclude with an explanation of the proposal for studying conscience, called Strategic Epistemology, which is based on Staddon & Bueno's initial idea and enriched by Ruiz-Vargas' multilevel vision; this, allows us to go beyond the traditional classification and observe how the different levels and sublevels organize themselves around some fundamental questions: Why, what for, how and where. The best way to get to develop dynamic and explicative models of the conscience phenomenon is to look for the answers of these questions.
