La pedagogía de Emile Durkheim

The article seeks to expose the pedagogical approach contributed by the French David Emilie Durkheim (1958-1917), from the sociology of education, to make effective the project that the French Third Republic had to forge on the new society and the new social being that he intended. For this purpose, the conceptual foundations that shape the author’s sociological approach to pedagogy and education are examined, as well as its relationship with the unified theoretical-practical project of a new society and new social being, which is presented in four aspects. : I. The context: definition and the Third French Republic; II. The condition: pedagogy; III. The means: education; IV. The purpose of pedagogy: the society. The article provides a theoretical and interpretative review of Durkheim’s contribution to the field of sociology of education, highlighting the political connotation that his ideas contained in this field, and the methodological teaching considered current, which suggests the theoretical and practical development of pedagogy, first of all by understanding the social dynamics and the particular moral demands of each society rather than the nonconceptual and ahistorical importation of inflexible pedagogical models
