Der Pädagoge in der multikulturellen Gesellschaft

Meer over het boek

This work explores various theoretical and methodological frameworks, focusing on the significance of empirical material within the context of its theses. It addresses the representativeness of this material and discusses challenges encountered during participatory observation, along with insights into the interpretation process. The approach is situated within the context of a multicultural society, examining the interplay between societal systems and lifeworlds. Key themes include the decoupling of system and lifeworld, systemic integration in advanced industrial societies, and social integration dynamics. The text delves into everyday life in industrial societies, highlighting the intersection of systemic and lifeworld integration principles. It also addresses social pathologies such as the mediatisation and colonisation of the lifeworld, reflexivity in daily life, and modes of socialisation in postmodernity, including individualisation and plurality. The discourse extends to youth and religion, examining the status of young individuals in advanced industrial contexts, their integration, and the influence of youth cultures. Additionally, it discusses the situation of the church in modern society, the implications for religious institutions, and the role of youth work within this framework, culminating in a theoretical exploration of youth work practices.
