This article deals with the methodology for the study of “Radio Journalism and Freedom of Expression in the Managua region, in the period 1936-1979”, as part of the author’s thesis research as part of the Doctorate in History with a Mention in Studies Regional and Local Transdisciplinary. The object of study will be analyzed from the oral history approach as a method, methodology and as a technique to understand how the understanding of the right to freedom of expression evolved in three stations in the Managua region (Radio La Voz de la América Central, World Radio and Radio Corporation) in a context marked by the rise, heyday and overthrow of the Somocista dictatorship. This is intended to help recover the perceptions, voices and glances from the memory of both journalists and radio workers as well as the elderly who participated in their capacity as listeners. The result of the investigation is a process of historical reconstruction of these events related to political subjectivities and from the people who were directly involved in these processes, to rescue the journey lived through the oral story as a source of that lived past.
