Abstract

This chapter introduces the concept of social pedagogy. It further explains different perspectives from which social pedagogy is seen. This is done by using practical, simple, everyday situations to introduce the concept and then introducing the reader to a scholarly understanding of social pedagogy by looking at different definitions of the concept. Scientists tend to position social pedagogy differently in different countries, resulting in different definitions. These differences are clarified and what they have in common explained. The goals and purpose of social pedagogy are explained and related to different human experiences. Finally, recommendations are made on how social pedagogy can be developed further.
