Thanks to everyone for their help. It all went into the mix.
Indeed, the term seems to have migrated from Spanish to
English and the word "sociocultural" became popular in 1990,
and it seems that Jim Wertsch is the fellow who triggered
the explosion in "sociocultural psychology" with "Voices of
the mind : a sociocultural approach to mediated action
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.worldcat.org/title/voices-of-the-mind-a-sociocultural-approach-to-mediated-action/oclc/797855062&referer=brief_results__;!!Mih3wA!WsWX2sD5ZfUnBEp3uLEVG7T0NliMnbPpuJl6VOoxtiFfKP5msJWjbZPFaCQ6jDWDMZtFSg$ >"
published by Harvard University Press in 1991.
Although "sociocultural" seems to be most widely associated
with "context dependence," Wertsch's reference to "mediated
action" in the title of this book makes it clear that for
him "context" referred to the signs and artefacts mediating
action.
Thanks again to all
Andy
