This article is part of the end-result of a doctoral research on the space, the time and the society in textbooks of social sciences in Colombia between 1990 and 2010. A study based on the historicaltrans- complex approach, the hermeneutic historical paradigm, and techniques of qualitative content analysis. The purpose of this paper is to reflect on the concepts used by the authors of the texts studied about space, time, and society and to observe the relevance of these to understand the current era. Among the results, this paper highlights the Eurocentric and ethnocentric views when exposing the contents: the thematic-positivist approach used when organizing the programs: the fragmented vision to conceive Social Sciences: and the linear one-dimensional perspective to conceive time, the social- structural approach to think society, and the concept of space without either time or human beings
