Abstract
DIAZ-VILLA, Mario and CARRILLO-HERNANDEZ, Maria Teresa de Jesús. Socialization and Pedagogization. Pedagogía y Saberes [online]. 2023, n.59, pp.43-55. Epub July 01, 2023. ISSN 0121-2494. https://doi.org/10.17227/pys.num59-17972.
In both the field of sociology and in pedagogy, the nuclear concepts of this paper are linked to the constitution of identities, which differ in terms of the historical change in the social basis. Thus, while the concept of socialization represented the ordering of behavior, character, manners, and forms of relation, which responded to modern rationality; pedagogization represents the decentering of hierarchical forms of socialization, mediated by rigid limits, and the emergence of subtle, imperceptible, diffuse and apparently empty modes of control modalities. However, these concepts coexist and hybridize in the 21st century. These two concepts are described and analyzed in this paper, in which some relevant aspects are developed to understand the difference between socialization and pedagogization, and to clarify the historical role of both concepts in the constitution of identity and, contemporarily, in the domestication and control of mind. For analytical purposes, first, we will refer to the concept of socialization; secondly, we will address pedagogization. Finally, we propose some issues to read critically the value systems and the constellation of imaginaries built by pedagogization, which feeds flexible, transitive, hedonistic, healthy lifestyles, through which the subject is co-opted and decentered. Therefore, the paper is the result of the theoretical research process carried out by the authors on the relations between pedagogy and culture, relations that have crossed the social formations throughout history.
