The «fathers and sons» phenomenon: clarifying current ideas

Abstract: 
It is generally accepted that the phenomenon of “generational change” characterizes precisely the “modern” type of society. For a “traditional” society, “generational change” does not exist. The ontological approach allows us, however, to understand that “Modernity” in “modern societies” is not at all achieved by a formal “change of generations”. Generations may change, but society may still remain far from “modern.” Why? The ontological approach contains the answer to this question.
