Abstract

The purpose of this article is to reflect about the power of religion socialization. As this chapter is a little visited in the education sociology, this discussion is targeted at all those who are concerned about the reality about the current education. The objective is to raise a discussion that awakens the interest among the educators in the former dimension of the construction of meaning, the religious systems. Furthermore, the aim is to draw attention to the process of production, transmission and apprehension of various physical, mental and intellectual ways responsible for the construction of the social world.
