In the German tradition and its sciences of the spirit, the pedagogical anthropology focuses on human as an educable being (homo educandus) according to his opening to the world and malleable condition (formability), in order to achieve both socialization (education) and personalization (formation). Despite the importance of these humanization purposes for any educational practice, this discipline has had limited dissemination in pedagogical discussion in Colombia, because of the instrumental interest in educational system components, omitting in this way the real human being pretended to be educated. In response to this situation, this research article sets out the relevance of this discipline for the pedagogical conceptual field based on its historical analysis; its anthropological and pedagogical principles focused on the anthropos as a being of mediation, perfectible and symbolic; and its objectives of educating and forming from the images of man until updating them in the unique meaning sense that each person in his concrete circumstances builds on the unfolding of his existence.
