ABSTRACT
The article aims to analyze the appropriation of the principles of socialization and individualization, arguing misunderstandings and worries produced under the Escola Normal Official de Montes Claros, and circulated through the local press. The discussion is situated in the context of the New School, whose proposal for renewal did not proceed by consensus, but marked by clashes and conflicts. It was found that the conflicts around the principles of individualization and socialization led to fear of the absence of Christianization in the society and the introduction of communism via school.
