Context. In this article, we present a theoretical corpus built with developments from different disciplines, in which we bring together concepts, theories and “new” scientific perspectives developed during the 20th century. It is a work of deep theoretical reflection in the field of research methodology. Problem. The purpose of this work is to contribute to the overcoming of the disciplinary reductionism and assuming the complexity that today requires the construction of a science of the whole. Method This article has been developed through a deep interdisciplinary literature review. Result. These ontological and epistemological developments mark a profound change of course on modern science, questioning the fundamental principles that previously gave its sustention. Also, we consider that these developments are founding principles of life, so we seek to put them in relation to the reader’s everyday life, in intimate connection with everything that affects him and at the same time it is affected by him. Implication. The paper concludes with the challenge of the human quest of unraveling essential finds for the evolution of life that would help us to preserve and empower our existence.
