Abstract
Undoubtedly, the transformations taking place in our world today, along with the significant changes and the technological advancements that accompany them, have led to a major shift in various aspects of social life, particularly in terms of their impact on the process of socialization.
One of the most significant challenges facing the socialization process of children in our society is the value changes brought about by communicative globalization. Local socialization institutions face pressing contradictions between upholding an authentic value system and instilling it in the younger generation, and confronting an alien global culture that is simultaneously promoted by communication channels. This global culture seeks to distance the younger generation from our reference values, erasing cultural and personal uniqueness, and merging with the global culture that carries materialistic, consumerist values far removed from communication, intimacy, and respect.
Based on this, the socialization process today is confronted with challenges linked to the contents of communicative globalization. This research paper aims to address these challenges and propose protective mechanisms based on a value-driven educational approach at the level of all its institutions.
