CristianaC (asker) Sep 22, 2010:
Thanks to all of you. Each of your answer helped me. I probably ask the question in the wrong way, as I realized later,
that "educazione alla legalità" (at least in my translation) is really something much more complex and structured than one could think. Therefore the answer of :-): was the one that mostly helped me. I finally translated with "citizenship education"
I add here a couple of things:
this was in a related translation:
"all’educazione alla legalità, intesa come coscienza delle regole alla base della convivenza civile"
and this from one of the several programmes on the subject:
"L’educazione alla legalità ha per oggetto la natura e la funzione delle regole nella vita sociale, i valori della democrazia, l’esercizio dei diritti di cittadinanza e significa elaborare e diffondere tra gli studenti cultura dei valori civili per educare ad una nozione profonda dei diritti e doveri"
Sorry all of this I found later as all your answers made me look further into the question.
So please :-):-put back your answer, as , even if I did not use your translation, I used one of the terms i found in your explanation!

law-related education

WHAT IS LAW-RELATED EDUCATION?
Education for citizenship in a constitutional democracy, not specialized legal education, is the main point of LRE in elementary and secondary schools. Given the fundamental place of law in our American society, every citizen needs to know how the legal and political systems function, how the law affects them, and how they can affect it.
...
They defined LRE as "those organized learning experiences that provide students and educators with opportunities to develop the knowledge and understanding, skills, attitudes and appreciations necessary to respond effectively to the law and legal issues in our complex and changing society".
http://www.ericdigests.org/pre-929/law.htm



The term law-related education (LRE) usually refers to public legal education in primary and secondary schools (and sometimes in higher education), as opposed to PLE* for adults and outside of school.

"Behaviour" is both countable and uncountable therefore you can say "a". But maybe here it is better without

respect for the law

Not literal but I think this is what is intended, especially with "educazione" rather than istruzione. The phrase is even more common than I expected:
