FRANCO CHAVEZ, FANNY PATRICIA. Tensions between crises and renewals Significant communication experiences for social change from the university milieu as a contribution to shaping emerging situations. Signo pensam. [online]. 2011, vol.30, n.58, pp.114-127. ISSN 0120-4823.

Herein we present some features of the epistemological crises in the educational field, behind the notions of development and communication for development; we also outline some emerging outlooks for each of those features. Thus, in this paper, we share some significant experiences in community communication from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana (Cali campus) as initiatives that attempt to redeploy the value of different knowledge fields, of intercultural education, of new ways of arranging economic and social life beyond development, as well as the value of invigorating and making visible such transformation proposals.

Keywords : emerging epistemology; education; postdevelopment; communication for social change; significant experience; systematization; Communication in the social sciences; Community development; Theory of knowledge.
