Early education - priority resource for the production of social order

摘要

Social order constitutes a dynamic social and historic construct. Individuals are born into a certain order of the social environment to which they belong and, as they grow/ develop/ mature, they discover it gradually and appropriate it continuously. In our current study we argue that the learning of order, in general, and of the social order, in particular, starts and is carried out in novel forms since the first months in one's life or since the first year in one's existence. Our reflection is oriented in this sense by the very reality of training developed in numerous countries of the world over the past decades. At world level, various national and international political bodies have been initiating ample strategic interventions on the education of children aged 0 through 7 years. Our study outlines the characteristic features of early education, in general, shows the relevant Romanian concerns with this issue and mentions the reasons which make it imperative to consider early education a priority resource which induces social order. We highlight aspects connected to the system of final goals which are intrinsic to early educational interventions, especially those focused on small children's early disciplining.
