It gave remarkable progress to societies and institutions in the West, and liberated people from the shackles of fear. The concept of tolerance established more humane laws and imposed on countries new patterns of thinking. And using reason to devise ways to avoid violence and intolerance for humanity.

School Convivencia : Reviewing the Concept (Psicoperspectivas; No. 18, Vol. 1) Year of publication: 2019 Author: Cecilia Fierro-Evans | Patricia Carbajal-Padilla Corporate author: Catholic University of Valparaíso. School of Psychology This article reports an effort to review the concept of school convivencia (peaceful coexistence, living together) in the Spanish context with the purpose of advancing into its clarification, and thus contributing to developing a common language in the Latin American region. The authors conduct a basic literature review oriented to identify the main theoretical approaches in the convivencia field. Subsequently, they analyze four studies focused in systematizing the prevailing approaches in the study of school convivencia. As a result, they propose a concept of convivencia from a social justice perspective adapted to education, and they operationalize it in three areas of school life: pedagogical-curricular, organizationaladministrative, and the socio-communitarian. This comprehensive notion of school convivencia may guide future research, educational initiatives, and school assessments in the convivencia field that may respond to the violence and pervasive social exclusion that exist in the Latin American region.
Tolerance (Non violence) in the Curricular of Algerian Primary Schools (vol.2, no.1; Journal of Cognitive Fields for Social and Human Sciences) Year of publication: 2021 Author: Morad Fatima Zahra | Fantazi Karima Corporate author: Algeria. Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research This study aims to identify tolerance values within primary school curricula in two ways: explicitly and implicitly, focusing specifically on Islamic books due to their significant role in instilling values, particularly respect. The study utilizes the descriptive method and content analysis to analyze primary school books spanning five years. Statistical analysis is conducted using duplicates and percentages. The findings indicate that these books predominantly convey tolerance values implicitly rather than explicitly, which is believed to be more readily accepted by children of this age group. It is concluded that fostering tolerance values should be a shared responsibility of both the community and the school, not solely the latter.
