The general orientation of this article is to investigate under what conditions scientific knowledge, produced in varied regimes of openness in different contexts and with the participation of diverse actors, has the capacity to be used in order to deal with ? or even resolve ? social problems. With that aim we use a theoretical framework that, within the social studies of science, mobilizes different concepts which are normally considered separately and that enable us to take some steps towards constructing a more comprehensive and integral approach.
