Epistemological Challenges of Cultural Identity in the University Context

Abstract

Assuming that the university context represents a theoretical challenge is to anchor oneself in an explanatory scientific position to understand the identity and consequently derive behaviors where it is possible to base categories and notions that enrich a field of science. Challenge that aspires to develop the present article; mediated by the textual hermeneutic method, it is established as a contribution a reflective level that provides guidelines to know the meaning and value of intellectual activity. By providing a reflective level that provides guides to know the meaning and value of intellectual activity from the identity in the university, the knowledge of the conception and at the same time of the scenarios of the academy is enriched. This study has shown then that the dialogue of the epistemological in the relations of conceptual coherence has its effect in the context that specifies it. An assertion that goes through the intersections that structure cultural science, to enrich the subject and arrange it in conditions to express their feelings and rationalities from the commitment to their immediate reality. In the environment of identity, cultural diversity is impacted, a factor that through the work of institutions and organizations it has been possible to recover what was considered lost in order to appreciate and value it. The University is the seat of science and reason whose interethnic and intercultural relations of mutual respect and dignity provide a positive identity to social subjects.
