The purpose of this volume is to present a selection of chapters
that reflect current issues relating to children's socialization
processes that help them become successful members of their
society. From birth children are unique in their rates of growth
and development, including the development of their social
awareness and their ability to interact socially. They interpret
social events based on their developing life style and
environmental experiences. The children's socialization is
influenced by several important social forces including the family
and its organization, their peer group, and the significant others
in their lives. In "Theories of Socialization and Social
Development," Olivia Saracho and Bernard Spodek describe the
children's socialization forces and the different developmental
theories that have influenced our understanding of the
socialization process. These include maturationist theory
(developed by Arnold Gesell), constructivist theories (developed by
such theorists as Jean Piaget, Lev S. Vygotsky, and Jerome Bruner),
psychodynamic theories (developed by such theorists as Sigmund
Freud, Erik Erikson, Harry Stack Sullivan, and Alfred Adler), and
ecological theory (developed by Urie Bronfenbrenner). Each theory
provides interpretations of the meaning of the children's social
development and describes the different characteristics for each
age group in the developmental sequences.
