Proposition 012 – Expanding sources of civilising

As an individual grows older, both the number of sources of civilis­ing and the variety of civilisation elements transmitted increase.

• Explanation. In addition to parents or caregivers, teachers, friends, peers, lecturers, colleagues, public figures, media and institutions, among others, become sources of civil­ising. Increasingly numerous and diverse civilisation elements are transmitted through these sources, including conceptions of reality, norms and values, behavioural reper­toires, goals and ideals.
