Abstract

This research explores the theoretical-methodological and learning related conditions for introducing the hermeneutic phenomenological methodology based on Max van Manen's approach within the Hispanic context. Using the descriptive (interpretive) method and the grounded theory approach for data analysis and interpretation, interviews with academics and researchers in the humanities and social sciences and an open questionnaire to experts in the method were conducted. This study leads us to consider the centrality of the subject of education and the hermeneutic phenomenological practice, attributing, as a starting point, certain attitudes, aptitudes and skills to this subject. At the same time, this study points to the need for a context with permanent spaces for study, training, exchange and dissemination of hermeneutic-phenomenological work, preferably at universities. Education implies the focus on a lived experience from its starting point, designing a teaching-learning strategy that, while still providing the theoretical and philosophical basis, does not fall into excessive theorizing of the approach. A proper educational proposal may contribute to the emergence of research groups that provide a singular way to practice more humane and humanizing research, focused on the world of life and the meaning and sense of the experience.
