Abstract

Whoever treats education in different cultures and societies and looks out for audio-visual material, is most likely to encounter the films of Gordian Troeller. ... His work is a relevant contribution to international and multicultural comparative education. His films illustrate facts and questions on societal developments and on socialisation and education in many different countries. ... Furthermore they present thesises and controversies which challenge and enrich the scientific discourse in the educational and social sciences on development, modernisation, childhood, pedagogical concepts, role models of women, family and youth as well as social, cultural and educational policies. The article analyses the relevance of the films of Gordian Troeller as part of political socialisation by massmedia in Germany and portrays the possible use of his films as didactical media.
