Sumario:In this paper the social involvements of archeology are discussed regarding that almost all of the discipline functions following the principles and paradigms of the western modern science. We regard that these principles constitutes a type of contradiction and a obstacle to the social involvement as they prescribe a way of being that is supported by neutrality and epistemological freedom. On the contrary, it is proposed to consider epistemology and politics as a whole and as arena of opportunities accounting the geopolitics of knowledge production.
