Some reflections derived from a research process on political capacities for transitions in the territories affected by the Colombian armed conflict are presented. The phenomenological hermeneutic approach of Paul Ricœur is proposed to make a reading of the community action of the organizations of victims of Samana (Caldas, Colombia). These reflections concern a reading of the community action of the organizations of victims of Samana and La Dorada (Caldas, Colombia) from the phenomenological hermeneutic of Paul Ricoeur. In this way, three symbols for the reading of community action are identified: the subject victim who has become a surviving subject; the emergence of non-hegemonic otherness; and the self as another. It is concluded that the life of the subjects victim associated with this type of organization is mediated by community action and their respective narratives.

Keywords : social organization; victim of war; community action; identity; hermeneutics.
