This work presents two micro-researches on the horizon of possibility of the treatment of memories, identities and people's rights that we have been developing within the framework of research teams and projects at the National University of San Luis and the National University of Villa Mercedes.The first one: "MEMORY FOR TRUTH AND JUSTICE", forms of social pacification in Argentina in recent history, is an example of presentation of good practices of Argentine citizenship for the recovery of memory about truth and justice in recent history that crossed the action and / or denial of human rights throughout the territory. The second one, THE UNIVERSITY, PRISONS AND PUBLIC POLICIES IN ARGENTINA. PLAY OF ACTORS BETWEEN THE "INSIDE" AND THE "OUTSIDE", gathers in its discursive structure two mutually intertwined pillars that denote on the one hand a discussion around the contributions of knowledge proposals coming from applied research in the epistemic horizon of social sciences and their impacts.
