Resumen

KLEIN CABALLERO, Alejandro  y  CHAVEZ-HERNANDEZ, Ana-María. The redefinition of being elderly. Changes in inheritance, the social bond and transmission capacity. Culturales [online]. 2015, vol.3, n.2, pp.209-228. ISSN 2448-539X.

This paper seeks to redefine certain aspects concerning the social bond and especially its degree of credibility and legitimacy regarding the issues of inheritance, transmission and establishment of an archetypal Ancestor or Ancestors. Below some issues are reflected upon regarding how the social bond is modified from new forms of subjectivity of elderly people who confront the inheritance they have received, for which they are no longer guarantors in some aspects, from an inheritance that has been transformed into cultural and social debt. It specifically states how the change in the form of construction of subjectivity in elderly people no longer holds them in place as transmitters, according to new forms and lifestyles that are tied more to the "present" than to the "past". The extent to which these factors override or redefine the social bond is then discussed. The context of this work concerns Latin America primarily, with some global references in order to better situate the complexity of the subject matter.

Palabras llave : social bond; inheritance; elderly people; cultural debt.
