(El Perfil Del Hombre Y La Cultura En Mexico (Spanish Edit...)
His classic Profile of Man and Culture in Mexico (1962) Ramos critically applies Adlerian Psychoanalysis to the Mexican psyche. He unmasks an inferiority complex and a profound sense of alienation. In his quest for authentic exPression in Mexico, Ramos relates philosophy °f culture to psychology and argues for assimilation rather than imitation of external cultural ■nfluences.
In this regard, he plays a key role in the development of philosophy of lo mexicano and makes a major contribution to cultural identity in Latin America.
