In this Editorial, I take a rare look back – at the 20 years of making the journal. It has been an experiment in navigating the (re)emerging field in between different historical and contemporary tendencies in psychology, as well as with neighbouring traditions in anthropology, history and biology. All this has happened under social conditions that turn researchers increasingly into inductively generalizing agents in social capital making. In my estimation, the journal has succeeded to maintain a focus on innovative ideas in a number of tendencies under the label ‘cultural psychology’ and make itself a forum of intellectual opportunities for the loosely defined scientific community that uses culture as its organizing term. The central feature of the journal has been its interweaving of ideas – through the constructive work of reviewers – and editorially goals-oriented extension of the content areas that belong to the meaning clusters of culture and psychology in ways that illuminate sciences that study human ways of being. The high international coverage that was established back in 1995 has remained the journal’s defining feature over two decades
