Edukacja kulturalna i kształtowania kompetencji społecznych dzieci a myśl konserwatywna
Cultural Education and the Formation of Children’s Social Competence and Conservative Thought

Summary/Abstract: In educational research conducted at the beginning of the 21st century, the issue of social competences in the process of education and aesthetic upbringing of children occupies an important place. They are acquired not only in the family and at school, but also through contact with cultural heritage, educational activities of such institutions as museum or theatre. In recent years, dominated by the ubiquitous technicisation and relativization of life, initiatives aimed at developing children’s social skills from an early age have become exceptionally important. In the period of the pandemic, direct social interaction was severely limited, and educational activities moved largely to the Internet.The subject of this study are the activities proposed by traditional cultural institutions in the context of conservative thought. The research covers the content, forms, and methods of programs addressed to children for the transmission of cultural and artistic heritage by selected museums and theatres in Poland (with particular emphasis on Krakow). The websites of the institutions and the results of a local competition were analyzed. The background of the considerations is conservative thought, which places the family at the center of education as the most important educational environment, but which also refers to the values of cultural heritage and tradition.In this context, particular attention will be paid to those activities that affect the formation of social competences in human development, as holistically understood.
