    Este artículo tiene cuatro objetivos articulados. Primero, presentar los contenidos con que, en la literatura ad hoc, se suelen identificar y analizar la Cohesión social y la Homofilia. Ambos conceptos provienen de tradiciones diferentes lo que origina definiciones no coincidentes. Segundo, encontrar un anclaje entre ambas concepciones que permita una conjugación de su identificación y tratamiento; setrata de las relaciones-interacciones entre individuos u otros agentes. Tercero, desarrollar una concepción abierta entre ambos contenidos, Cohesión social y Homofilia, a partir de un proceso social de retroalimentación entre ambos. Por fin, en cuarto lugar, presenta una posibilidad de convergencia como proceso de método y cálculo para estudiar dicha conjugación entre Cohesión social y Homofilia dentro de un proceso más amplio de retroalimentación entre ambas.

    This article has four articulated objectives. First, presenting the contents with which, in the ad hoc literature, Social Cohesion and Homofily are indentified and analysed. Both concepts steam from different traditions which have originated dissimilar definitions. Second, to find an anchorage among both conceptions that permits a conjugation in their identification and processing: it is a matter of the relations-interactions among individuals or other agents. Third, developing an open conception of both contents, Social Cohesion and Homofily, as a social process of mutual feedback. At last, in fourth place, the article presents a possibility of convergence as a process of method and calculation to study the conjugation between Social Cohesion and Homofily inside a more extensive process of feedback among both.
