Abstract

This text corresponds to the author’s praise of Jordi Monés i Pujol-Busquets (1928-2020) who energized and renewed the studies of the history of education in Catalonia from the sixties of the twentieth century. Self-taught and with a solid preparation in the field of engineering, he became interested in human and social issues, especially in the history of education, which, through his studies and works, became the social history of education. Furthermore, by coining the expression «school thought», his epistemological and methodological contribution can be considered to be somewhere between conceptual history and social history, opening up a new horizon for historical-educational.
