Prostranstvo munitsipaliteta kak faktor pedagogicheskogo vozdeistviia na sotsializatsiiu detei: Bel'giiskii opyt

Abstract

The chapter examines the pedagogical influence of municipal space on children’s socialization. There are two points of view on the relationship between children and the municipal area. On the one hand, children need safety from destructive consequences of migration processes. On the other hand, children should be given the opportunity to move around the space of the municipality independently and safely in order to productively use communication opportunities offered by the municipality. This leads to the creation of an infrastructural environment in the municipal area that would not only bring pleasure to children, but would also have an educational effect on them. To illustrate this, municipal projects of the Belgian city of Ghent are presented.
