La educación en la construcción de la idea de ciudadano, 1910-1948

This article will approach to the citizen’s model and the construction of the Nation-State in Colombia. Likewise, a critical reading of the research problem is developed from the “educational path”, understood as one of the strategies used in the developing Latin American countries to create a citizen’s model and contribute to the production of the intended cultural homogeneity. This a topic of a growing concern in our country, since it is related to the understanding of the creation process of a nation and the construction of the State, and especially, by the contribution to the history of education in that regard. The documentation task led to identify and create an archive of the research, in which the school handbooks and the official documentation are crucial as well. According to the documentary search, a total of 40 school texts or handbooks were found, out of which 19 were about the History of Colombia, 16 to Civic Instruction and 5 to Good manners. The history, civic instruction and good manners handbooks, and the official documentation of the time comprise the historical materials that, through the criticism of the sources and the interpretation, help us understand the projects at stake, the expectations of the different concerned groups and the tensions experiences, to the extent expressed by the institutional designs, the ideas or values about the education of that citizen that the Colombian nation needed and about how to disseminate them between the students at that time.
