Abstract

Family and the various forms of relationships and communications between the different generations in a family still represent a common object of research in the field of humanities, including ethnology. For most of us, family is a micro-world in which the major part of the human life happens. It offers us the initial information about the functioning of things and, in particular, about relationships between people, and creates the space in which we train communication. Within a family we learn in a non-violent way about how relationships between people –peers and members of different generations – work. We adopt opinions about what is going on around us, accept values and norms that we consequently use, modify and confront with the world outside the family sphere. Socialization in a family is the initial blueprint that forms our identity, the idea about who we are, where we belong to, whose continuation we are. Above all, family is an environment that is supposed to bring together its members through the feeling of mutual trust. It also offers the possibility (almost the obligation) to talk about confidential issues, but it can also create a “circle of silence” about phenomena which are taboo because of being painful and hurting both the speakers and the listeners. Especially in totalitarian regimes, family is endangered by the disclosure of certain facts, while others distort the positive image about its members. Family and society are interrelated as communicating vessels. Any changed conditions in society also change family, its forms, the relationships between generations, as well as the themes and the forms of communication within it. And vice versa – society responds (or should respond) to the needs and problems of family by means of special institutions. Today, the changes in communication in family are due to increased mobility of its members (education, work, personal fulfillment), individualization, as well as the development of new communication technologies. On one hand, there is the actual physical distance between the family members; on the other hand, the overcoming of such distance thanks to technological discoveries. In connection with family issues the developments in the European society of the 2nd half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century have made us reflect about Martin Heidegger's statement: “The present times have overcome all distances, but have not created any proximity.” Another characteristic feature of a present-day family is the fact that the increased life expectancy trend allows for longer co-habitation and cultivation of relationships between three or even four generations. This creates a new potential for of inter-generational family relationships and extends the time lived in such relationships as adult individuals. The term generation can be described in several manners: for example, by an appropriately defined time interval related to the period of birth of individuals pertaining to a single generation. It is common to use the interval of 10 to 30 years, but other criteria can also be set for determining who pertains to which generation. Hence, a generation can be defined on the basis of the duration of a certain event (e.g. war generation) or structurally, like childhood (Wintersberger 2000: 6).

Abstract

De nombreuses observations ont fait l'objet de théories et d'ouvrages sur ce thème qui touche toutes les entreprises et organisations. Le management intergénérationnel soulève la question de l'impact des stéréotypes et préjugés liés à l'âge sur le management des personnes. Il a été mis de côté ces a priori pour faciliter l'échange entre générations en mettant en commun les compétences et les expériences innovantes. Nous avons aussi mis en évidence les impacts du management socio-économique innovant. Cet ouvrage permet d'ouvrir de nouvelles réflexions pour mettre en valeur la diversité générationnelle comme facteur essentiel de performance durable. La 31e édition du Colloque d'Automne de l'ISEOR rassemble un large éventail d'acteurs concernés par les enjeux de la prospérité, du management comme source de création de valeur socio-économique et de développement humain : CNAM Paris-LIRSA, HEC Paris, iaelyon – Université Jean Moulin, Institut National des Formations Notariales, La République En Marche (LAREM), SEAM Inc., Minneapolis (États-Unis), St. Scholastica College (États-Unis), Université de Balamand (Liban), Université Autonome de Guanajuato (Mexique). L'ouvrage met aussi en évidence, par de nombreux témoignages internationaux de dirigeants, cadres d'entreprises industrielles, tertiaires et d'organisations de service public, l'efficacité et l'efficience du management socio-économique, implanté avec succès depuis plus de 43 ans. Les témoins de ces actions innovantes sont représentés par : AR357 – Hervé AMBAL, Cavatello, Cetaf, Empaque San José (Mexique), EY Consulting, France Silver Eco, Gonhers (Mexique), Groupe Arti, Groupe Brioche Pasquier, Leclerc Luçon, Moltacte (Espagne), Neuvistac, Ninkasi, Omnium, Pilot'In – Le Lyon Entreprises, Raynal Architecture, Rezonance (Suisse), Sánchez Aguacates Hass (Mexique), SAS Vinay Matériel, Savoie Volailles, SCM Paraga, SLB Médical, Société Alteca, Société des Missions Africaines, Société Réalitiel, Technord SA (Belgique), Trollat & Graber Architectes. Le concept de management socio-économique, né en Europe, est largement publié aux États-Unis, où son originalité a été reconnue par l'Academy of Management.

Abstract

De 1954 à 1962, plus d'un million et demi de jeunes Français sont partis faire leur service militaire en Algérie. Mais ils ont été plongés dans une guerre qui ne disait pas son nom. Depuis lors, les anciens d'Algérie sont réputés n'avoir pas parlé de leur expérience au sein de leur famille. Le silence continuerait à hanter ces hommes et leurs proches. En historienne, Raphaëlle Branche a voulu mettre cette vision à l'épreuve des décennies écoulées depuis le conflit.Fondé sur une vaste collecte de témoignages et sur des sources inédites, ce livre remonte d'abord à la guerre elle-même : ces jeunes ont-ils pu dire à leurs familles ce qu'ils vivaient en Algérie ? Ce qui s'est noué alors, montre Raphaëlle Branche, conditionne largement ce qui sera transmis plus tard. Et son enquête pointe l'importance des bouleversements qu'a connus la société française sur ce qui pouvait être dit, entendu et demandé à propos de la guerre d'Algérie.Grâce à cette enquête, c'est plus largement la place de cette guerre dans la société française qui se trouve éclairée : si des silences sont avérés, leurs causes sont moins personnelles que familiales, sociales et, ultimement, liées aux contextes historiques des dernières décennies. Avec le temps, elles se sont modifiées et de nouveaux récits sont devenus possibles.

Abstract

Social isolation, loneliness, and suicide are conditions we often associate with the elderly. But in reality, these issues have sharply increased across younger generations. Baby Boomers, Gen X’ers, Millennials, and post-Millennials all report a declining number of friends and an increasing number of health issues associated with loneliness. Even more concerning, it appears that the younger the generation, the greater the feelings of disconnection. Regardless of age, it feels as though we’re living through a period of ongoing disequilibrium because we’re not able to adapt quickly enough to the social and technological changes swirling around us. These powerful changes have not only isolated individuals from their own peers but have contributed to becoming an age-segregated society. And yet we need fulfilling relationships with people our own age and across the generations to lead lives that are rich in meaning and purpose. Even in those rare communities where young and old live near each other, they lack organic settings that encourage intergenerational relationships. In addition, it isn’t technology, but generational diversity that is our best tool for navigating the changes that affect so many aspects of our lives - whether it’s work, entertainment, education, or family dynamics. We can’t restore yesterday’s model of community, where only those who were older transmitted wisdom downward to the generation below. But we can relearn how much members of different generations have to offer each other and recreate intergenerational communities for the 21st century where young, old, and everyone in between is equally valued for their perspectives, and where each generation views itself as having a stake in the other’s success. Here, Hayim Herring focuses more deeply on how Baby Boomers, Gen Xers, and Millennials perceive one another and looks underneath the generational labels that compound isolation. He offers ways we can prepare current and future generations for a world in which ongoing interactions with people from multiple generations become the norm, and re-experience how enriching intergenerational relationships are personally and communally.
