We often ask ourselves while observing natural phenomena: how does science work? Can she explain it all? For this reason, complexity is coming as a paradigm that can help fill in the gaps that positivist science has left. For the holistic sense of its epistemological character could help us better understand both the natural world and the social world. An understanding that leads us to action, since today's complex times demand the timely intervention of human beings in the problems that most of them have generated.
