This book addresses the influence exerted by the media on children and adolescents in relation to early experimentation with psychoactive substances and pedagogical-theological intervention as a preventive strategy. The influence on human beings through media mechanisms that condition them to act as expected by the conditioner has been studied for a long time. Aldous Huxley, in his book Brave New World, addressed human conditioning as early as the 1930s. In subsequent decades, other theorists such as Edgar Morin and Guy Debord analysed how human beings are conditioned by mass culture and the society of the spectacle. The reality presented in relation to the conditioning of children and adolescents through the media prompted the author to seek preventive measures in relation to the conditioning of human beings by the media. To this end, he analysed theorists such as Paulo Freire and Michel Henry and their discoveries on the mediation of knowledge and the analysis of the Words of Christ and how these can contribute to the development of pedagogical-theological interventions.
