The Biography of an Individual Determined by Social Transformations
Abstract
The aim of this article is to show the characteristics of the life of an individual, who grew up in the 1960s and 1970s. On one hand, the situation was determined by the social-political surrounding (overpopulation and poverty, especially in rural communities, mass migration from villages to cities). On the other hand, it was characterised by the unique social experiences of young people, among whom proper development trends were observed within applied educational influences and their results (linearity, the predictability of human life, activity, especially professional, which created the basic circle of the social identities of young people; social and professional promotion). My narrator grew up in a village. His life underwent significant transformations as a result of the development of the sulphur industry.
