CASTILLEJOS SOLIS, María Eugenia. Identity of the Educational Subject in the Narrative of the University Social Responsibility. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2020, vol.11, n.21, e024.  Epub 09-Mar-2021. ISSN 2007-7467.  https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v11i21.729.

Based on the contents of the inter-institutional program of university social responsibility (USR) of Mexican higher education institutions, this article seeks to reflect on the phenomenal field of the construction of university identities as the place of intersubjective and symbolic articulation from which professional projects become citizen projects. This articulation is reviewed here with the meanings of the subject, morality and ethics for an absent contemporary political culture, nevertheless necessary to configure the backdrop of some of the narratives of the university as an institution of and among public life. It has been assumed to rise and transit through a scaffolding with the hermeneutic philosophy of Paul Ricoeur towards the field of philosophical anthropology and social policy. The analysis is guided by the theory of narrative identity (Ricoeur), which opens the ontological space of care, esteem and self-respect that invigorates the place from which the identity values of USR are affirmed for the democratic life of higher education institutions.
