Education is a Matter of the Heart: The Educational-Pastoral Model of The Salesians of Don Bosco

Miguel Ángel García Morcuende SDB

Amidst the chaos of insurrections and unification during nineteenth-century Italy, one man developed an educational method based on reason, religion and loving kindness. Don Bosco's Preventive System and extensive experience are still highly relevant today in the field of education.

Throughout these pages, the basic principles of Don Bosco's educational system are presented in a concise way, with thoughtful observations on its origins and on the profile of the educators in relation to the young people, the educational institutions and the methods used. Fr Miguel Ángel offers here an updated reflection on the Preventive System of Don Bosco, building on the idea of the educational-pastoral community as a clear vision of a project that defines the evangelising and educational identity of every type of Salesian presence.
