In the base of this conception is a distinction between objective values and subjective values, also denominated cognitive or constituent values and non-cognitive or contextual values. In this paper some critics to the value-free idea of science, their autonomy and impartiality are reviewed; in special it is shown the relevant role that all kind of values carry out in science, and the importance of 'gender' category in performing these analyses, as the different papers in this issue show.
