Question

Every 20-30 years or so a new Generation in society develops. Below are a few descriptions of recent generations and their characteristics.

Traditionalists: Individuals in this generation were born prior to the end of World War II (1925-1942), this group also is referred to as Veterans, Builders of the Nation, or the Silent Generation. Individuals from this group are viewed as stable, conformists, and reliable.

Baby Boomers: Individuals in this generation were born between 1943 and 1964, this generation has experienced many of the societal “firsts.” Issues such as desegregation and integration, as well as other significant political and cultural changes faced the young adults of this generation. They’re now in their 50s and 60s, and are characterized by optimism and a reluctance to grow old. Generation X: is generally defined as those born from the early 1960s to the early 1980s. The term has also been used in different times and places for a number of different subcultures or countercultures since the 1950s.

Gen-Xers also have been called Baby Busters and the 13th Generation. Now in their mid-20s to early 40s, they grew up in the culture created by the Baby Boomers and have been described as self-indulgent, mobile and materialistic. They have been influenced by technology as well as by shifts in family and societal trends including divorce, two-income households and gender, racial and ethnic diversity. Given this worldview, their values tend toward individualism and self-reliance.

These are several examples of past generations, how they’re described, and some of the issues they’ve faced.
