This article presents several perspectives regarding the biographical-narrative domain which have been raised and nurtured by the work of the Research Team of Education and Cultural Studies at Mar del Plata State University in the last 17 years. The transformation of social scenarios and the pedagogic field that have coupled, in recent times, with the Team’s efforts to approach central issues in education have resulted in an enlarged conception of narratives, the diversification of interests and the sophistication and expansion of tools for research. Thus, the text describes the three dimensions which compose the local, current academic landscapes and horizons—namely, the meaning-making social settings, the main contents and the wide array of resources and techniques that have been displayed in recent years—. It also addresses the subjective and personal affections that have been necessarily entangled with the academic work, both as a gesture of consistency and as a sign of genuine commitment to change in education, as well as in social life in general.
