This paper develops the itinerary followed by intellectual history in Mexico used as a theoretic tool to analyze Mexican and Latin-American realities. Departing from the proposals made in Europe and North America, Mexican scholars followed the linguistic turn variation, which has introduced certain peculiarities. We take in count proposals from other schools of thought that share some characteristics of intellectual history and that could well be considered as an important part of this historiographic school. We emphasize the development of proposals in different Mexican institutions through seminars, publications and other sources.
