The research proposal presented in this article is part of an ongoing status, and attempts to explore the process of the generation of adult subjects. Each society distinguishes age classes that embody the crossing period on which a cultural imaginary was prepared. Assuming that the modes of incorporation of adult subjects have changed, that the steps and, above all, the ages at which they occur mark different milestones and the processes have varied, there are significant differences depending on structural and biographical issues. This field is where you will find questions, and analyze the patterns which the generation of adult subjects is acquiring. As a general hypothesis, it suggests that «there are qualitative differences in the ways in which they articulate the transition to adulthood, depending on the social and generational core with generational differences according to socioeconomic levels of gender and family».
