Abstract

This work is part of a set of sociological reflections whose theme is Sociology in high school. The adopted research problem aims to understand how students' socialization and schooling processes contribute to their perception of the Sociology. Therefore, the objective established was to analyze the relationship between schooling and socialization of high school students at Escola Centro de Ensino América Central and the their perception of Sociology. We built such an analysis at the Centro de Ensino school Central America, located in the city of Morros. To do so, we identified the process of formation of Sociology in Brazil as a science and discipline, in addition to analyzing the teaching of Sociology at Central America school and understand students’ perception of this teaching. From a methodological point of view, after a bibliographic review, we mobilized questionnaires, interviews and direct observations in classes. The entire construction was guided by the a Durkheimian perspective that forms of social representation are linked to forms of social organization.
