DESCRIPTION:<p>Studies on inconsistency in factual science can be divided according to a classification of inconsistencies advanced by [3]\, [1\, pp.95&ndash\;96] and [4\, p.144].</p>\n<p><strong>Factual:</strong> Inconsistencies between a theory and data or observation\; i.e. &ldquo\;mean beliefs\, opinions\, theories that are held to be true even though there are facts which contradict them&rdquo\; [3\, p.488].</p>\n<p><strong>External:</strong> Inconsistencies between theories that describe the same system and that &ldquo\;attribute different natures to the same thing or arrive at different conclusions about it&rdquo\; [3\, p.484].</p>\n<p><strong>Internal:</strong> That characterize those theories that imply contradictory statements.</p>\n<p>Traditional epistemologists have always regarded any of these types of inconsistency as problematic\, which made them hold the following theses:</p>\n<p>&bull\; If a theory is inconsistency with data\, the it&rsquo\;s false.</p>\n<p>&bull\; If two theories contradict each other\, at least one of them is false.</p>\n<p>&bull\; An internally inconsistent theory is trivial and\, hence\, useless.</p>\n<p>Davey [2] calls counter-tradition to the programme &ndash\; often associated to paraconsistent logic &ndash\; that dispute these theses. In this lecture I present a review of the most important studies on inconsistency in factual science by traditional and counter-traditional epistemologists. The lecture will be divided in three sections corresponding (mainly) to the previous classification of inconsistencies.</p>\n<p><strong>Bibliography</strong></p>\n<p>[1] T.
