Vygotsky's The Historical Significance of the Crisis in Psychology 
> (1926/1927) is an
important text in the history and philosophy of psychology 
> that has only become
available to scholars in 1982 in Russian, and in 1997

paper is to introduce Vygotsky's conception of 
> psychology to a wider audience. I argue
that Vygotsky's argument about the 
> 'crisis'� in psychology and its resolution can be
fully understood only in 
> the context of his social and political thinking. Vygotsky
shared the 
> enthusiasm, widespread among Russian leftist intelligentsia in the 1920s,

> that Soviet society had launched an unprecedented social experiment: The 
>
socialist revolution opened the way for establishing social conditions that 
> would let
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 
> systematically account for the development of knowledge in psychology? I 
>
evaluate how Vygotsky addresses this problem as a historian of the crisis.
