ABSTRACT
James Mark Baldwin was one of the honorable delegates guested to the inauguration of the University of Mexico in 1910, he was invited on the purpose of teaching two courses, each one consisted in a series of conferences. While the first one, that was around the topic of Psychosociology, has been studied by many authors, the second one that was about the History of Psychology has been barely reviewed. Nevertheless, the importance of this second course is of vital analysis due to the relevance and extension of this topic in Baldwin’s work, and as well this version of history presented by Baldwin in his teaching, clarifies what kind of psychology prevailed in the education and social systems of Mexico. The speech translated in this paper was read before the conferences of 1910 and 1912 and summarizes the positions with which Baldwin would propose subsequent courses. In addition to enriching the understanding of the document, the introductory study contrasts it or complement it with several archival documents and with arguments and positions held in the work of the psychologist.REFERENCES
