| 释义 | generationalism noun[ U ] uk /ˌdʒen.əˈreɪ.ʃən.əl.ɪ.zəm/ us /ˌdʒen.əˈreɪ.ʃən.əl.ɪ.zəm/ the belief that people from a particular generation(= a group of people born during the same period of time) share particular characteristics that make them different from, especially better or worse than, other generations: Generationalism can be seen as a kind of socially approved ageism that has the potential to negatively affect all people, young and old. When we believe somebody’s age determines how they will behave in the workplace, that is generationalism, which I would argue is both counter-productive and wrong. In his view, generationalism is simply bad science. Generationalism has become the basis for sweeping explanations and diagnoses that ignore historical detail and the complex political structures underlying social phenomena. Generationalism is an accessible and relatable way to make sense of social identities, and in this way is similar to astrology.
