This issue of “Getting to Know Don Bosco” delves deep into this years study of Don Bosco’s pedagogy. First, Fr. John Roche bridges December’s issue and the current issue, and points out key connections. We are blessed to have received permission to publish the main article, which is a translation of Chapter IX of Fr. Pietro Braido’s book: Prevention Not Repression, translated by Fr. Vincent Zuliani & Fr. Julian Fox. A brief outline of the main article would include:
- The option for the young: social and psycho-pedagogical typology
- Elements of the sociology of youth
- Elements of youth psychology
- Growing up
- Features of youth psychology
- Theology of education
