Abstract
In the area of research related to the Historiographyof education, most of the studies are located in the trends of simple narration of past events, overvaluation of official documents and highlighting important characters. Faced with this investigative prevalence, a new perspective of making history rescues cultural representations of common subjects. This tendency is called "cultural history", which studies meanings within a particular space and the interactionsof these in the social world, where they are filled with meanings given by practical and social representations of the subject. In the case of special education, historiographical studies are mostly located, in the traditional tendencies of historicism, lacking a solid support in representations, compiled and documented storiesof what happened in the addressingtime period. Studiesthat comefrom the modern knowledge of psychology, pedagogy, as well as those that refer to the study of integration and inclusion models, areamongst the rest, outstanding. It is from this last thesis that the need arises to carry out a historiographic investigation that seeks to give voice to the subjects of special education involved in daily life and the regularities of the experience of the day to day living, describing transformations that have taken place in the educational practices of special education in Chihuahua during the period 1970-2015, from a historical-culturalperspective, through anin-depth analysis of interviews, and the review of evidencerescued from that time period.
