Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this article is to present the "Itinerant Perspective" as a hermeneutic method for resolving conflicts and situations that undermine human dignity. Methodology: To this end, the epistemological foundations of the "Itinerant Perspective" are developed and its role in the university setting is examined as a conducive environment for its implementation and subsequent dissemination. Results: The aim is to connect different fields of knowledge within the university (moving from one shore to the other) to create responses to the realities of torture endured by the most socially vulnerable. Furthermore, we intend for these transdisciplinary insights developed within the academic setting to be applied in situ to unjust social realities. Discussions: By overcoming the dichotomy between theory and politics, the "Itinerant Perspective" seeks to promote a multifactorial and transdisciplinary analysis of new social realities. Conclusions: Finally, we conclude our exploration by asserting that the "Itinerant Perspective" will enable us to construct an inclusive common lexicon from within the university, guided by, centered on, and aimed at the most vulnerable, requiring the strength of hope as an existential driving force to be applied repeatedly in every situation.
