Addressing the realities in postmodern society full of fragility, liquidity, uncertainty, complexity and multiplication of knowledge is a permanent challenge for university research, summons to co-build a knowledge of scientific respectability and sensitive to this transience; this requires the use of a great diversity of methods, strategies and procedures to study what Deleuze and Guattari (2008) call multiplicities and events, that is, the multiple dimensions of an event and the essence-existence of that entity. This invokes a research thought, rhizomatic, in becoming, a haecceidad to capture the multiplicity, never total, of the social reality. Faced with this phenomenal situation, I proposed to view the investigative processes from the perspective of migration, which subsumes in its essence the deep philosophical notions of the delocalisations of knowledge; realities full of agency and deterritorialization-reterritorialization that universities have to consider in research management. The hermeneutics was the epistemic ally of the researcher to dialogue with the philosophical accounts of the aforementioned thinkers with the intention of building a frank territory to transdisciplinarity, the complementarity of methods-methodologies, to address the complexity of the real; creation of an ontic space, of epistemological openings, of knowledge agency resulting from the deterritorialization of the different paradigmatic fields, migrations of knowledge, vanishing lines to generate non-hegemonic critical spaces of enunciation of the investigative self that lead to pendular movements of deterritorialization- reterritorialization of knowledge, becomings, that connect human practices in that imaginary line of the epistemological encounter, reconfiguring new ways of doing science.
