• W848949372 abstract "The present study examines the issue of European youth's social involvement in relation to the same generation's deep relationship with communication technology and furthermore, with the social network sites supported by this fast developing technology.The theoretical background we use will be supported by a research study conducted in the period May-June 2011 on a sample group made up of 100 young people (undergraduate and graduate students) aged 18-26.Two main characteristics of today's young generation depicted by numerous social, cultural, political, anthropological studies are their special relationship with communication technology and their new communicational features on the one hand and their low involvement in the of the city, their weak political, social interests on the other hand. Whether there is a connection, a cause-effect relationship between the two realities we are going to discuss in the following lines.The first step in our attempt is to define the target group making the object of the present study. The contemporary young generation have been given varied names: Generation Y, the Net Generation, the Digital Natives, the Echo Boomers, Generation Next, the Facebook Generation, in an attempt to enter and decode their world to the benefit of the whole society. They are the generation bom approximately between 1978 - 1995, although this time interval varies from one country to another, from the USA, to Europe and Romania. This is the digital generation, no doubt, who has grown along with the computer and the other technology developments they are so keen of and experts in. But, while the computer was a common item in the early '90s in the USA, in Romania only the children bom after 1990 have had the opportunity of benefiting from the modem technology in their first life decade.The European Young generation have witnessed and have been living in a fast changing, fast-developing environment; the double nature of this change process - political and economic on the one hand and communicational on the other hand has been certainly influencing the way the young generation conceives social and political action and involvement.The democratization process has faced many obstacles in countries from South-Eastern Europe, where many changes have taken place at different levels: political, economic, institutional and everyday life and where a slight change regarding the mentality and civic and political behavior has been noticed. Therefore one of the main targets of many EU policies and funded programs is to lead young people to become active citizens, to play an active role in society.Social and political transformations, produced in many European Union countries (including Romania) in the last decades, have generated various problems the younger generation is faced with. But notwithstanding the chances and emerging opportunities in the development of pluralist democracy, the level of youth participation in public life and politics is not very high.Today we are eyewitnesses to what we could call a clash of the European society, namely its members' - especially the young ones - lack of involvement in European politics or national politics.The great potential the young generation has would allow them to develop themselves and contribute to society's development, successfully including the leading of their own destiny, but most of European young people seem not to not have full confidence in their own powers. However, young people, through their positive thinking, dynamism and energy they own, ambitions and aspirations to a more prosperous future, should be the driving force in a changing European society (a dynamic, complex society).If we analyze the surveys performed of EU countries, we notice that 30% of youth say that they do not know what the future holds, 10% confess that they live only for today, 20% of them believe that the future will not be good, 16% believe that the future will be more depressing than the present and only 24% of young respondents hope the future will bring them a better life than the present one. …" @default.
