Abstract

“In a place in La Mancha, whose name I do not wish to remember, not long ago there lived a gentleman of those with a lance in a rack, an ancient shield, a skinny nag, and a greyhound for racing” (De Cervantes, 2024, para. 1). We begin the editorial of the magazine Debates por la Historia with this quote in which the author does not wish to remember the place where Don Quixote de la Mancha lived. In our case, it would be of great help to preserve in historical memory - in a total way and not in plots - the relevant moments of our lives, such as that visit of Dr. Enrique Domingo Dussel Ambrosini -Enrique Dussel- to the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the Autonomous University of Chihuahua.
