Vygotsky's The Historical Significance of the Crisis in Psychology

important text in the history and philosophy of psychology

available to scholars in 1982 in Russian, and in 1997

that Vygotsky's argument about the

fully understood only in

shared the

>
socialist revolution opened the way for establishing social conditions that

the individual flourish. For Vygotsky, this meant that 'a new 
> man'� of the future would
become 'the first and only species in biology that 
> would create itself.'� He envisioned
psychology as a science that would 
> serve this humanist teleology. I propose that The
Crisis is relevant today 
> insofar as it helps us define a fundamental problem: How can
we

evaluate how Vygotsky addresses this problem as a historian of the crisis.
