MORAL EDUCATION IN SOUTH AMERICAN: A PEDAGOGICAL SYSTEM OF TRANSVERSALITY

ABSTRACT

In this article, firstly, we have proposed to defend the thesis that the moral education is the education itself. For this, it was necessary to comprehend what is the education of morality, as well as its constitutive elements and its relevance in the pedagogical systems. Therefore, we have tried to explain and commented the state of moral education in the Southern Cone of America, region in which a development of the ethical sphere of education from a transversal model is adopted. It’s worth to say, this article contains two moments: the construction of a speech that allows us to arrive at a broadly defined understanding about the theme, and the description and the critical comprehension about the transversal model, a very present focus in several southern countries.
