Resumen

En estos últimos tiempos, la mediación se ha presentado como una respuesta pedagógica idónea para formar en la ciudadanía democrática. Ambitos como la escuela, la familia o la sociedad multicultural se erigen en escenarios donde la mediación constituye un instrumento educativo que permite no sólo afrontar de forma democrática los conflictos surgidos, naturales en toda relación humana, sino también ir configurando una cultura de la convivencia. Caminar hacia la definitiva construcción del sentido pedagógico de la mediación es el objetivo central de este artículo, adentrándonos en el estudio comparado de las afinidades y divergencias de algunos de los escenarios donde puede ser relevante el uso de las metodologías mediadoras.

Abstract

In recent times, mediation has been presented as an ideal pedagogical response to educate in democratic citizenship. Settings such as the school, family or society are multicultural scenarios where mediation constitutes an educational tool that allows not only to democratically face conflicts that arise and are natural in all human relationships, but also to configure a culture of coexistence. Moving towards the definite construction of a pedagogical sense of mediation is the focus of this paper, through a comparative study of the similarities and differences of some of the scenarios where the use of mediation methods may be relevant.
