The emerging trends in youth culture and action have to be understood both from a macro-sociological perspective and through the consideration of individual experiences in everyday life. This article tries to integrate these two levels of analysis and will argue that: 1) conflicts and social movements in complex societies shift from the material to the symbolic; 2) the experience of time is a core issue, a core dilemma; 3) young people, and particularity adolescents, are key actors as regards the issue of time in complex societies.
