THE SOCIALIZATION PROCESS OF YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE ROMANIAN TRANSITIONAL SOCIETY
THE SOCIALIZATION PROCESS OF YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE ROMANIAN TRANSITIONAL SOCIETY

Summary/Abstract: In this article we are focused on the role of primary and secondary socialization on young people in contemporary society. We started from a few questions, such as: What place do socialization courts occupy or how do they appear in the transition of young people from the communist period to the one immediately after 1989? By what criteria are they ranked? What are the agents of socialization? What impact do social courts have on young people's lives? What are the benefits of primary and secondary socialization on the individual? What factors influence the socialization process? What are the conditions for the efficiency of this process? To what extent has their role changed throughout history? With what repercussions on the person, family or society? To some of these questions, we tried to find answers, relying both on the specialized literature and on the data obtained through qualitative methods, especially interview and observation. The field investigation was carried out in the Municipality of Iași, with the population being specialists who intervene in the educational process, but also beneficiaries of education, students and parents. Following the analysis, we observed that the roles of the family and the school still remain decisive, especially when there is a continuity and complementarity between the two and when they support each. Unlike the communist period, there is a more visible influence of the Church, but also of the mass media, especially the Internet. The latter has a positive role in the conditions in which it is used judiciously.
