En el artículo planteamos una categoría para el estudio de controversias científicas, controversias sobre estilos, y proponemos una herramienta de análisis para dar cuenta de ellas. Para ello, hacemos uso de la noción de estilo de razonamiento de Ian Hacking y la metáfora de una historia por estratos. Mostraremos que las controversias sobre estilos tienen la particularidad de persistir en el tiempo, evolucionar e involucrar discusiones y debates en múltiples niveles. Para ilustrar nuestra propuesta, presentamos la controversia cuántica como un ejemplo de una controversia sobre estilos y hacemos uso de la herramienta que aquí sugerimos.

In this article we propose a category for the study of scientific controversies, controversies about styles, and suggest a tool of analysis to give an account of this sort of disagreement. To do this, we use Ian Hacking’s notion of style of reasoning and the metaphor of a stratified history. We will show that controversies of styles have traits: they persist over time, evolve, and include discussions and debates on multiple levels. We present the quantum controversy as a case of a controversy about styles and make use of the tool we have suggested to illustrate our proposal.
