Abstract

The impact of the globalizing phenomenon is not only recognizable on its economical and geopolitical aspects, being its influence on association degrees one of its main features regarding the social level: groups of young people turned into urban tribes, sects, antisystemic groups, etc., all of them under the postmodern paradigm of complete loss of certainty. Facing uncertainty and solitude, individualism ceased to be the only response. Spontaneous collectivism has become a new way of reaction.

Urban tribes – Collectivism – Uncertainty - Postmodernity
