Abstract

[This chapter seeks to resituate some aspects referring to the social bond and especially its degree of credibility and legitimacy around the problematic of inheritance, transmission and the constitution of an Ancestor. It is then reflected on some problematic around how the social bond is modified from the new forms of identity of the older adults who confront with the inheritance that they have received, reason why they are no longer guarantors in some aspects, of a cultural and social inheritance. It is pointed out how the change in the form of identity construction of older adults no longer sustains them in the place of transmitters, according to new forms and lifestyles that are more tied to the “present” than to the “past”.]
