“Prophets”

In agreement with the theory of William Strauss and Neil Howe, the generation of the Western boomers would be mainly made up of idealists, egocentric people, people who fight until death for the ideal that they set. This generation is already in conflict with the " X" , more independent, and have sometimes problems to include/understand conservatism, the homogeneity and the capacities of team work which their children of the Génération Y raise.
