Epistemic Filters and Relevant Alternatives

This paper is aimed at doing a contribution to the notion of relevant alternative to the philosophy of science: the hypothesis is that such a notion helps enriching the analysis of the relations between orthodox sciences & the problem of dissidence in sciences. & finally we will examine one case presenting the problem of epistemic dissidence in an extreme form: the case of homeopathy In this sense, given the limitations of this paper, our interest is proposing some clues for the reconstruction & examination of the concept of relevant alternative by examining the relation between homeopathy & actual medicine.
