This reflection article presents narrative inquiry as a methodological proposal aimed from the epistemological foundations of hermeneutics, with the goal to propose a way of social construction of scientific knowledge that emerges from the voices of the participants. First there are some elements of the epistemological foundation that state for reflections that form a particular approach taken towards the processes of social construction of scientific knowledge. Then, it is generally described the methodological way that streamlines the construction of data and the analysis thereof. Finally, it is reflected on the challenges and scope of narrative research involving the adoption of an ethical and differential political stance.
