BOQUE TORRERMORELL, Maria Carme; PANELLAS VALLS, Mercè; ALGUACIL DE NICOLAS, Montserrat y GARCIA RAGA, Laura. The culture of peace in education for citizenship and human rights in primary education textbooks. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2014, vol.36, n.146, pp.80-97. ISSN 0185-2698.
This article examines the contribution of education in the construction of the culture of peace in 11 educational textbooks for primary students, which were edited in the Autonomous Community of Cataluña in 2009, given that the area is the most explicitly linked to peace. A documentary study was carried out by way of the comparative methodology, along with an analysis of the content through the use of a previously designed and validated instrument favored by independent evaluators. Te results show certain gaps: the absence of the word "peace" in 63 per cent of the books; inattention to the past and the future (absent in 38.5 and 72.7 per cent, respectively); a lack of participative and democratic practices (55 per cent); the omission of social conflicts and their respective actors (54.5 per cent) or ignorance of the local-global relationship (48.7 per cent), to mention some of the most marked failures.
