Abstract
This exploratory aimed to know the main trends, evolution, and historical background of the acculturation concept. The word acculturation did not appear, but cross-cultural comparisons were basic. The American Journal of Psychology was characterized by physiological topics. However, Social Darwinism, progress, competition, and social dominance were important traits. Power positions and scientific production were connected, and they were naturalized and vindicated. This relationship was reported on the importance ascribed to cultural maintenance. It was prepared due to the endeavor to find out the origin of the human culture. The contemporary research may retain old ideas related to social Darwinism, and social dominance between cultures, especially when it employs cross-cultural comparisons regarding oppressed minorities.
