Abstract

The article is about an interview made by the author with the social researcher Zandra Pedraza in which the social researcher reveals how Pedraza’s research questions have arisen along the years. The article investigates her thought processes and the origin of her relections about life, about what is human and the human body. It also highlights the facts about Pedraza’s proposal which is both theoretical and methodological, as the researcher warns about the risks of the fragmentation of thought and knowledge, and also encourages others to devise new methodological approaches in order to build a more comprehensive view of the body and individuals.
