Sobre la idea de un conocimiento situado, desde Donna Haraway:

Haraway argues that vision or sight has been a guiding metaphor for western scientists in carrying out their work: they see the world and write down its truths. But in so doing they write themselves out of their own stories; their role is solely as \'modest witness\' (Haraway, 1997, ch. 1). That presumption of modesty, Haraway argues, is a direct consequence of the starting point of visuality. It creates the illusory possibility of a disembodied science. She calls this illusion a \'god trick\', the idea that it is possible to have \'vision from everywhere and nowhere\' (Haraway, 1991, p. 191). Moreover, it is just such a trick that is the basis of one of science\'s most cherished ideas, objectivity, the belief in the possibility of a single, final, detached, and unblemished rendering of the world.
