Questo contributo presenta una mapping review degli interventi formativi e di Change Laboratory nell’ambito della Teoria Storico-Culturale dell’Attività (CHAT) originata da Vygotskij. L’obiettivo è di confrontare le applicazioni sul campo di queste metodologie partecipative per il cambiamento sociale, analizzando sia i gruppi di ricerca che pubblicano su questi temi, sia i concetti chiave utilizzati nelle pubblicazioni. Attraverso VOSviewer, il contributo analizza i legami di co-autorialità e le co-occorrenze lessicali in 287 pubblicazioni dal 1996 al 2022. I risultati evidenziano due nuclei di ricerca principali, uno in Finlandia guidato da Engeström e Sannino e l’altro da Querol e Vilela in Brasile. L’analisi dei cluster identifica quattro raggruppamenti di termini che ricorrono assieme, suggerendo una specializzazione storica dei cluster rispetto alle quattro generazioni di studi CHAT. All’interno della terza generazione, un cluster associa il Change Laboratory con l’apprendimento espansivo, mentre un altro gli interventi formativi con l’agency trasformativa e la doppia stimolazione. Le conclusioni forniscono consigli metodologici e individuano direzioni per la ricerca per interventi di quarta generazione orientati all’equità e alla giustizia sociale.
