Abstract	The aim of this study is that of reaching a better comprehension of the topic of children’s rights within educational relationships. In a first stage, we analysed the representational field of children’s rights produced through free associations by the two partners who are in conflict in everyday life, namely adults (n=267) and adolescents (n=143). In a second stage, we chose a sample of 690 adult subjects that were all parents, half of whom were also teachers; through a structured questionnaire we investigated the role of several aspects (responsibility, respect, values, conditions influencing children’s growth and sense of justice) in the organisation of social representations of children’s rights. The results outlined different contrasts in the organisation of the representational scenario. The first opposes adults and adolescents, in the sense that adults emphasise their duties of offering protection and care, while the youngsters describe rights in terms of autonomous field of experience. Within the group of adults, several differences emerged between teachers and parents: the first seem more doubtful about the positive outcomes of personal involvement, while parents are moved by a general feeling of optimism, anchored in the faith in the family’s strength and integrity.L’objectif de cette recherche est de vérifier l’enjeu de la problématique des droits de l’enfant dans les relations éducatives. Dans une première phase, nous avons étudié le champ représentationnel de ces droits à travers les libres associations produites par un groupe d’adultes (n=267) et par un groupe d’adolescents (n=143). En raison du caractère inéluctable et asymétrique de la relation qui les unis, les deux groupes sont, en effet, amenés quotidiennement à se confronter sur la question de l’application des droits.Dans une deuxième phase, nous avons soumis un questionnaire à un échantillon de 690 adultes dont la moitié d’entre eux a des enfants. Il s’agissait dans ce cas d’étudier le rôle de l’attribution de responsabilité, de l’évaluation de respect des droits, des conceptions concernant le développement de l’enfant et du sens de la justice dans l’organisation des représentations sociales des droits de l’enfant. Les résultats mettent en évidence différents contrastes dans le scénario représentationnel. Le premier oppose les adultes et les adolescents: les adultes expriment avec emphase leurs devoirs de protection et de soin, tandis que les jeunes décrivent leurs droits en termes d’autonomie et d’expérience. Parmi le groupe des adultes, plusieurs différences distinguent les parents des enseignants; ceux-ci expriment plusieurs doutes en ce qui concerne l’efficacité de leur implication personnelle dans la promotion et l’application des droits, tandis que les parents expriment à ce sujet un certain optimisme soutenu par une idée traditionnelle de famille qui doit être unie et intègre.
