Metodologías y prácticas para la historia intelectual

Abstract

This book is the result of a deep process of learning and reflection on intellectual history, developed at the Seminar on Methodologies for Intellectual History and Philosophy at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana Cuajimalpa. Through an international collaboration, the authors and editors have woven a collective dialogue that crosses disciplinary and geographical boundaries. Far from being a traditional didactic manual, this work proposes a behind-the-scenes look at the practices and tools that shape the field of intellectual history. Readers will find here a map of the main currents, key concepts and methodological approaches that allow us to understand how research in this vast field is articulated. In its three sections, the book offers an introduction to the most relevant schools and traditions, breaks down operational tools for research, and explores interdisciplinary experiences that invite reflection on the limits and possibilities of the field. It is an essential work for those who, from curiosity and rigor, seek to understand the structures that sustain intellectual thought in its complexity. It is an invitation to learn, debate and collectively build a deep and didactic look at intellectual history.
