A Part of Article
Does cultural-historical theory (CHT) still exist? — the question might look naïve and even provocative. It provokes an immediate positive answer: yes, cultural-historical theory (CHT) does exist! Created in the1920s—1930s, CHT does not belong to the history of psychology only, but rather it is living and powerful theory which informs contemporary research in early childhood development, school learning and instruction, professional development, social studies, human-computer interactions, second language acquisition of adults and many other fields.
