| Sumario: | How are relations between generations shifting? As anthropologists, our take on intergenerational relations and the rationalities on which they are based—i.e. generationality—is historically situated. In many parts of the world, generation has become a major axis of social and political struggle, sometimes of bitter conflict. This, we argue, is a corollary of post-Cold War transformations in economy and society—and a radical rupture in processes of social reproduction. These transformations have conduced to the perception of a rising 'generation war.' How, then, in these circumstances, are we to think anew of intergenerational relations—and justice?
