Dear Mike,

To Bioethics (Potter), "contextualism" reffers the very importance of
something be studied as singular, in its own specifical socio-cultural
"context".

In this sense, I personally can "see" some moments on Vyg's and Leontiev's
discourses that point to the importance of a one understands behaviour
according to specific socio-cultural constrains. But, indeed, this is not
too explicit on their writtings.(Maybe in a few passages of Leontiev's
*Phychisism development* and Vyg's *Thinking and speach* complete text).

Now-a-days there's a hot debate also here on post-modernist approaches to
discourse and meta-narratives.
