THE SYMBOLIC POWER: NATIONAL SECURITY CULTURE REFLECTED IN PRIMARY AND PRE-PRIMARY EDUCATION
THE SYMBOLIC POWER: NATIONAL SECURITY CULTURE REFLECTED IN PRIMARY AND PRE-PRIMARY EDUCATION

Summary/Abstract: The current paper approaches the potential of symbolic power reflected by the security culture, from a socio-anthropological perspective. In this regard, the deductive endeavors have been doubled by the transductive ones. The security culture, in its operationalized meaning used by the Guide of the National Defense Strategy for 2015-2019, is perceived as an activating factor in the extended national security functionality. The case study focuses on the rapport between the core of the security system and the education system, more precisely, on the manner in which the forming and development of security culture is or should be reflected by formal education, especially through curricula specific to primary or pre-primary levels. The methodological design encompasses the content analysis of documents related to security and curricula, aiming at identifying competence clusters or formative contents devised for this purpose.
