The following article will show the results of the qualitative documentary research on the experiences of intergenerational relations in Latin American countries such as Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Uruguay, which were analyzed from the perspective of critical gerontology in the educational, health and community fields. The techniques used were document files and analysis, reviewing the last 10 years of the state of the art on the subject, by means of the effects analysis matrix and the matrix of categories and subcategories created for this research. The information obtained corresponds to secondary sources consisting of books, scientific journals, and documents from international organizations. Basing the research on Critical Gerontology, looking at the elderly with renewed perspectives with a positive approach seeking the integral development of the individual, focusing on the hermeneutic methodology. As for the results, the positive effects of intergenerational relationships are evidenced, observing a different view of old age on the part of the younger generation, recognizing the experiences and wisdom that older people possess. In the face of these intergenerational relationship encounters, there is reciprocity in the exchange of knowledge, contributing to intergenerational solidarity and above all to positive aging.

The university must adapt to the demands of the surrounding environment, which requires linking research and innovation through reflective processes on educational and social practice. The objective was to design a teaching innovation project, justified by the results of a national research project, which uses the Service-Learning (SL) methodology as a transversal axis, through the design of intergenerational digitized actions, capable of responding to current needs. The results of the needs analysis carried out by the research team shows that, before the pandemic, digital leisure activities between grandparents and grandchildren were secondary practices although, during the confinement, they began to occupy a preferential place. Intergenerational technological connectivity was the support for communication and meaningful relationships between grandparents and grandchildren during this period. This analysis of reality allowed planning an interdisciplinary innovation project that includes the design of 16 digitized intergenerational proposals of SL registered in the following contexts: university, university-school linkage, and educational-social collaboration, evaluated by digital rubric. The conclusions suggest that all the mentioned initiatives can be extrapolated to the social context, capable of favoring intergenerational encounters through digital resources.

This article offers an approach to the citizenship training experiences of young people who attend secondary schools in Argentina. After reviewing and systematizing part of the studies that have focused on issues related to citizenship education, it is based on the relevance of incorporating the analysis of the "discussions" of controversial issues that take place daily in schools. In this sense, an attempt is made to show how the ethnographic approach, which implies the prolonged presence of the researcher in the field, makes it possible to identify and closely monitor the ways in which the relationships between students, teachers and parents are structured. In this way, it is possible to distinguish and analyze a series of processes in which different and unequal ways of constructing citizenship are expressed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There is extensive literature on the positive effects of intergenerational relationships for both older people and young people. However, in very few cases evidence of the benefits of this type of relationships beyond the integrated effect of support social networks has been presented. This study aims to elucidate the effect of the existence of family intergenerational relationships in the state of happiness of people over 65 in Spain. To do this, we used the CIS 3109 Barometer of September 2015, in order to analyze the effect of relationships and coexistence with family members under 35 years in the happiness of the elderly, both in isolation, and in combination with other variables. The results show that cohabiting or having relationships with people under 35 does not have a significant effect on the happiness of the elderly. Factors such as gender, marital status, socioeconomic status and, above all, health, have a greater impact on the scale of perceived happiness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

To Understand the meanings on the health self-care of a group of men belonging to the same family tree in three different generations in the city of Manizales, from an intergenerational analysis. Materials and methods: Qualitative study, biographical method from an intergenerational perspective with thematic stories of life carried out between 2015 and 2016. Unit of work: three men of different generations (son, father, grandfather). Unit of analysis: the speeches produced around self-health care. Results: The meanings about self-care in health are built around the life experiences of the subjects in the sociocultural framework in which they are immersed. In the analysis of the speeches of the three generations, three nodal axis arouse around practices of conservation or omission of health care: the speeches that remained, the speeches that presented changes, and finally the speeches that were in tension. The discourses that remained in three generations were the object of this study. Conclusions: The study allowed demonstrating how, along the different historical moments, meanings and behaviors that have their roots in the culture and that largely permeate the lifestyles adopted by this group of men prevail.

The present text addresses the education-research relationship as a beautiful and complex event that tries to respond to a series of daily questions in the field of education. For example, to the articulation of scientific knowledge with the aesthetic field, in younger people and with initial readings. A process is generated between a team of students of 10th (secondary) grade from the educational institution Juan José Rondón, from the municipality of Soatá, north of Boyacá province, and a group of grandparents and old people of the town; relatives, acquaintances and memories of places that activate childhood and the first experiences to approach language, such as memory and curiosity mediated by the word through stories, oral contact and the thread of memory. The reflection focuses on the development of critical and interpretive thinking in students, the formation of autonomous people who actively participate in political, social and cultural life; aspects that involve a reflexive exercise and the social responsibility of the individuals who make up a society as dissimilar as the Colombian one. The pedagogical model was "The Transformative School" by Giovanni Iafransesco, by which it is emphasized the role of language and the relations established between interviewers and interviewees. Some fragments of the stories provided by the grandparents are presented, narrations that partly show the aesthetic proposal worked here. In summary, it is highlighted the need to stimulate the creative attitude and the aesthetic and social sensibility, as priority elements that education must take into account at the present time, if what is desired is to promote human beings and societies that face their problems in a rational and sensitive way.

Since several decades ago, the old question of generations (Mannheim, 1993) has nowadays regained its presence in various lines of research dealing with the changes undergone by the relationships between generations from the 60s (Míguez, 2009; Gallo, 2011; Miguez, Gallo y Tomasini, 2015) and the inquiry about the qualities which these ties currently take on in educational contexts (Bolleta y García, 2014; Zelmanovich, 2009). In the reports of our informant teachers, the way of regulating their 'relationship with their pupils' appears as one of the most relevant items to be learnt in the process of shaping their role. However, recurrently they also claim that their training as teachers seemingly does not provide them with the necessary tools needed to accomplish such objective. This might be indicating that it is just a matter of a relatively autonomous learning process. In this brief presentation, continuing to advance in accordance with both the precedent inquiries about the subject and the concerns expressed by our informants, we will focus on certain teacher's modes of dealing with what we conceptualize along with them as a demand of reciprocity from the young. We will try to show some of the ways in which as educators of the younger generation, their demands respond to the requirements stemming from the opposite logics of two regimes of interaction: a regime of equality and its contrary, based on hierarchy (Martuccelli, 2007).

According to anthropological tradition, childhood has been positioned in tangential fields of this discipline; the school of culture and personality has been the main one to cover the study of this theme. Recently, there have been studies that have focused on children; however, the new approximation requires reflection on the anthropological meaning of the same, to evaluate the theme from a cultural perspective regarding the social position of boys and girls, i.e. infancy. This involves the study of childhood from two viewpoints: from the perspective of the children themselves and their view of their environment; and, from the perspective of the society in which the children live.

This paper presents the main conclusions of a research project on family care provided to elderly and dependent people in Galicia. Galicia has a high aging rate and a significant socio-demographic contrast between rural and urban areas, making it an interesting environment to examine how family care tasks are combined. This study examines the kind of intrafamily negotiations that lead women, usually unmarried daughters (but not other family members) to carry out caregiving work. Furthermore, it presents the type of working conditions related to family care, as well as their impact on the living conditions and health of the caregivers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

During the last decades the percentage of population over 65 in Spain has grown significantly. However, Spain has not been sufficiently disseminated what it means to be an older person, rather what remains is a negative social image of older people. This image is especially focused on the problems that this population brings to the rest of society. To better understand this situation and its consequences, the intergenerational conflict, the text provides an overview that includes and discusses the different aspects that make this negative view. From here, the article discusses the construction of the road to intergenerational society from an European experience of intergenerational learning. Finally, it include several proposals from the educational field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The definition of the age range for childhood varies from one society to another, and has often been used as evidence that childhood is a social construction. The aim of this study is to analyse the collective representation of these age limits and their relationship with the concept of autonomy as constructed by public opinion in Spain. The latest available data about attitudes towards childhood from the Spanish Sociological Research Centre (CIS) were used, as well as CIS study 2621 on opinions, and attitudes to Childhood. Factorial analysis revealed a series of components that we have called «autonomy factors». The main conclusion is that public opinion understands childhood from an adultcentric perspective as a complex sequence that includes different temporal boundaries, ranging from an early age, where autonomy appears as an expression of a private world under family authority; to others closer to the age of majority, which include participation in the institutional sphere and behaviour associated with youth leisure time.

From the position of political ontological hermeneutics, particular practices become visible and audible, from the Latin American studies viewpoint, that appeal for a perspective of affirmation as proposed by Arturo Escobar with regard to the diversity and singularity of political actions, which define frames of reference and possibilities for a different life. Accordingly, this article maps 61 political action experiences connected to youth and qualitatively tracks the configuration of political subjectivities, broadening this category as an updating practice for ordering collective life from the perspective of male and female youth in concrete action contexts.

This article presents data from two samples of Catalan adolescents from 12 to 16 years and their parents in 2003 and 2008. The main aim is to explore the changing relationships between parents and their children and the impact that the use of ICT has on these changes. The results show that over the time there is a greater involvement of parents in communicating with their children about this issue, which involves no greater satisfaction of adolescents with such communication, possibly by the perception of lack of control that his/her father or mother has.

Although at the present time much research has studied these kinds of relations considering variables like intra and interpersonal styles in grandfather roles, relations after a divorce or when they must replace parents, or the type and quality of relations that develop when grandparents begin a degenerative process, there are few studies that focus on the type of relation and the roles that develop between grandparents and their favorite grandson or granddaughter. This article seeks to contribute a general perspective on the studies that have been done on this topic, as well as to present the conclusions of research, carried out by the authors, which explores the relevance of the favorite grandson- granddaughter role and the relationships that develop, taking into consideration the presence of various psycho-social-educational variables. The conclusions are focused on improving the understanding of the phenomena of intergenerational relationships. [TRANSLATION]

The present study seeks to inquire the representations of youth from the adult perspective in two different social situations. The results show that both groups manifest the differences between the youth of its own generation and the present youth. These differences refer to economic, socio-cultural and technological changes, as well to differences in the value system and parenting practices that characterize one and the other generations. The teachers clearly evaluated in a negative way the present generation more than the parents did. The teachers observe a loss in the adult authority above the youth, while parents identify a co-responsibility in the present youth behavior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
