OLVERA-SERRANO, Margarita. Time and Research into the Disciplinary Past. Social Science Journals in Mexico (1920-1928). Hist. Soc. [online]. 2020, n.38, pp.103-123. ISSN 0121-8417.  https://doi.org/10.15446/hys.n38.77293.

From a perspective guided by hermeneutics, phenomenology and conceptual history, this study analyzes the importance for research and writing on the history of social sciences of reflecting on the experience of temporality that cuts through its objects and practices, as well as its main implications for the observation of the past. For the purposes of this discussion, the author argues the importance of conceptual reflection in processing and examining the knowledge bases accumulated by specialized journals in Mexico, as written sources in which the traces of projects, experiences in that moment and intellectual and practical-political interests in different periods are sedimented. A brief outline is provided of what this type of perspective can contribute to knowledge of the past of these disciplines through an exploration of the predominant past-present-future connections in the emerging social sciences in Mexico in the Ethnos, Revista de Ciencias Sociales and Revista Mexicana de Economía journals, and their influence on the idea of what the social sciences could and should be between 1920 and 1928 is examined.
