Every context has to respond to the demands of change that are requested. If education is conceived as the key tool for social transformation, its role in promoting new civilization models cannot be neglected. One way of overcoming the crisis may be by reflecting about the symbol, its presence in art and religion, areas that may promote new elements for a future humanization."
