Regeneration: Generations remediated

Abstract: This paper proposes a model for a dynamic and constructivist perspective on generations. To study synchronous, contemporary interrelations between technology, media and generations, many different methodologies are available. Yet many historical, diachronic studies are marred by flaws and ambiguities in their use of ‘generation’ as a concept. To counter those problems, this paper argues for a process-oriented approach of generations – one which is modelled after Bolter and Grusin’s remediation. By distinguishi… Show more

“…Embora a discussão sobre gerações tenha ganhado destaque recentemente, o conceito é foco de estudo da sociologia desde o início do século XX (Wachelder, 2016).

“…Esse cenário pode trazer uma diversidade de possibilidades para a subjetividade dos servidores de ambas as gerações que vivenciaram essa experiência. Wachelder (2016) destaca que o conceito de geração tem se tornado mais dinâmico do que a compreensão tradicional da sociologia clássica em virtude das transformações tecnológicas e influências da mídia. Segundo o autor, as gerações apropriariam estas mudança s ao mesmo tempo, havendo uma significação semelhante para fenômenos que ocorrem para diferentes grupos geracionais numa mesma época.…”
