Abstract

One of the fundamentals of any journalistic idea advises not to headline with a question, which I have done on this occasion. The reader waits, with all right and reason, to clarify situations and not to offer unanswered questions. Anyway, that’s the way I’ve done it this time. Is it a slip, an error?


There is an end and the cause in simple: the doubt of the questions is addressed to those who may have the slightest hesitation or insecurity on the matter, to tell them at the outset that the answer to that question in a blunt yes:


- We are obliged to publish,


- to stop being repetitive in our teaching,


- to present once the originality of any work that deserves the title of investigative, of being an academic investigation, of being the result of a research that tries to respond to the initial hypothesis, which follows the course of the applied methodology
