Interdisciplinary Context of Social Deviation Prevention in School Environment

Abstract

The article analyses the interdisciplinary context of social deviation prevention, particularly in school environment. The article first defines the concept of prevention, describing its possible definitions and classifications including its interdepartmental and interdisciplinary context. The authors focus on the delimitation of the issue of prevention in relation to pedagogy, as they perceive the issue of prevention as a pedagogical/socially pedagogical category. They also notice the overlap of the issue of prevention with other areas-psychology, sociology, medicine, criminology, poenology, addiction research and other branches. The article includes presentation of the results of a small study mapping the issue of prevention from the perspective of school prevention methodists.
