The article aimed to analyze the various cultural pillars of the Algerian educational system, especially as we are witnessing a wave of media and information revolutions that have caused significant changes in the social order in general and education in particular. This has caused great challenges for our schools and universities. Our approach is based on the Bereday model of comparative education, which is an important key to interpreting the achievements and failures in the educational arena from different aspects, especially the cultural one. Algerian students suffer from a decline in their cultural level; a consumerist culture and a false awareness as a result of the post-colonialism period often influence it. This analysis has led decision-makers to adopt a set of measures using soft power tools that help addressing this problem in the cultural background of education. Based on the above, we recognize the effectiveness of the Bereday model in this educational analysis, characterized by its horizontal approach on the one hand and its input for understanding our educational heritage and its contextual method on the other hand. This model is an important pillar for conducting comparative studies and implementing successful educational reforms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
