Generation gap

A generation gap or generational gap, is a difference of opinions between one generation and another regarding beliefs, politics, or values. In today's usage, ""generation gap"" often refers to a perceived gap between younger people and their parents and/or grandparents.The sociological theory of a generation gap first came to light in the 1960s, when the younger generation (later known as Baby Boomers) seemed to go against everything their parents had previously believed in; i.e., in terms of music, values, governmental and political views. Sociologists now refer to “generation gap” as “institutional age segregation”. Sociologists have divided the lifespan into three different levels: Childhood, Midlife and Retirement. Usually when any of these age groups is engaged in its primary activity, the individual members are physically isolated from people of other generations, with little interaction across age barriers except at the nuclear family level. Sociologist Karl Mannheim noted differences across generations in how youth transition into adulthood. Sociologists have observed and studied the ways in which generations separate themselves from one another, and not only in the home but in social situations and areas (such as churches, clubs; i.e., “senior centers” and “youth centers”) as well. According to sociologists Gunhild O. Hagestad and Peter Uhlenberg, this generational segregation is of great concern as it fosters “ageism” and “increases risk of isolation” as people age. Each generation, when interacting with each other, has a wealth of information to pass on to the others. For instance, the older generations can provide great economic and general knowledge on the human experience to the younger generations, while the younger generations can provide input into current music and technology trends. This is, of course, not always the case: sometimes members of the older generations can be highly familiar with current trends, and members of younger generations can be fascinated by older music and culture.
