Socialization and Agents of Socialization By Dr. Prashant
Socialization Socialization is a process of learning the ways , norms and traditions of society. Anthony Giddens: Socialization refers to the process which transforms a quite helpless human infant into a self-aware, knowledgeable person who is skilled in the ways of their society s culture Peter Worsley: By this is meant, simply, the transmission of culture, the process whereby men learn the rules and practices of social groups. Socialization is an aspect of all activity within all human societies
LEVELS OF SOCIALIZATION Primary socialization - Primary socialization typically begins at birth and moves forward until the beginning of the school years. Secondary socialization - occurs in later childhood and adolescence when children go to school and come under the influence of non-family members. This level runs concurrently with primary socialization. Adult socialization - occurs as we assume adult roles such as wife, husband, parent, or employee. Anticipatory Socialization - It is a process by which someone is consciously socialized for future occupations, positions and social relationships.
