Abstract
Social research technologies are a set of applications and formal models that allow the approach of social problems through quantitative and qualitative methods not necessarily statistical, a large iconological field of visual explanations (Tufte, 1997), transdisciplinary perspectives of knowledge and free from any discipline formal work environments. This set of applications presents different challenges and alternatives to the mechanical, statistical and interpretative models in the pure state of the classical social sciences. The starting point of this work emphasizes the search for ecosystem sustainability in urban and rural settings and its interdisciplinary research regarding the impact of complex methodologies, their premises, applications of practical work and basic conceptualizations.
