The work starts from the observation of the end of the bourgeois family and the advent of the family with variable geometry, with moving contours.
But while couples have become unstable, kinship ties remain, the continuity between generations lengthens with the lengthening of life, generating a "temporal and vertical extension".
Solidarities of this type are reinforced, but they are built more on feeling than on duty or tradition or the will to transmit.
So, even in this reinforced vertical link, it is still the individual and what he feels, his identity, which prevails.
Thus is posed a "new family spirit".
