Sažetak

Main objective of the article is to define the concept of socialization, to study the role of the family in this process and to analyze the function of free time in family socialization. Definitions of socialization come from three scientific traditions: anthropological, psychological and sociological one.
Some of the most important approaches are discussed and elaborated. The author gives a working definition of socialization as a process of interaction between the individual and his social environment during which the individual accepts social values, attitudes, norms and role expectations as his own. By this interaction process the personality of an individual is formed and the final result is the integration of the individual into society. Socialization is a dialectical process during which not only the »Socius«, but also the »Ego« of an individual is being formed. That means that it is a reversible process where the subject and the object of socialization interchange roles constantly.
Socialization remains to be a primary function of the family. By teaching the offspring to live in the society, families have the homogenizing effects on the environment to which the children are exposed. That is the cause of the family socialization being the process of class inheritance, that is, the inculcation of the class values, which directs the individual behavior in accordance with the structure of the class subculture.
The analysis of the role of the family in the socialization of offspring is performed by use of the symbolical interactionism as the conceptual framework and a parent-child interaction as the unit of analysis. Leisure time of the family is looked upon as an integrative mechanism of various family roles and analyzed in its daily, weekly and annual rhythm.
