GOMES, Lisandra Ogg. Childhood, participation, and socialization. Psicol. Conoc. Soc. [online]. 2021, vol.11, n.1, pp.85-96.  Epub 01-Jun-2021. ISSN 1688-7026.  https://doi.org/10.26864/pcs.v11.n1.6.

In this article I present some theory analyses developed in the research, still in course, called “The participation of childhood in Brazilian society”. This theoretical-empirical research aims to know, analyze, and understand the practices, discourses, and social dynamics that recognize Brazilian children as individuals with rights and as social actors. Based on the social studies field, mainly education, policy, and sociology of childhood, I indicate a great social and legal recognition of children, promoting legitimization and participation of childhood in society. I also consider that the current socialization concept includes a reflective action and an active process, in which the individual that builds, unbuilds, and rebuilds him and herself from and through in the social relations. Thus, I assume the childhood as the generation that ensembles children that participate and socialize in different social instances, they interfere and reorganize institutional dynamics, determinations, and prescriptions. Therefore, this is a theoretical article on the participation meaning and socialization processes on children’s life, in correlation with the sociopolitical and cultural impact in childhood.
