Abstract

This research was carried out in order to understand the sense that lime has for men and women who have lived the experience of working and studying simultaneously. This is o phenomenological study whose its unique relevant purpose is to enhance the sense that its actors give to time. The data construction and analysis were made from a hermeneutical perspective, given the pretension of reaching argumented descriptions that speak about the sense of time for students who work or workers who study and the commitment of translating and transforming this intelligible text socially constructed by of them and for them. For this reason, an approximation to the fundamental concepts was made based on the politic philosophy inspired by Hannah Arendt, the social phenomenology by Alfred Schutz and the time conception expressed by Mélich and Gurméndez.
