%X Our paper has grouped the conclusions of research organized between 2002-2010 on 1841 subjects from different generational strata in contemporary Romania. The investigation realized on representative samples has made on three age groups, conventionally designated as ¡®generations¡¯: ¡®50th generation¡¯ (subjects socialized in communism, profoundly integrated in the ¡®old world¡¯), ¡®35th generation¡¯ (subjects secondary socialized in communism, social integrated in the ¡®old world,¡¯ which obtain in present an influent symbolic position in the social network), and the ¡®20th generation¡¯ (subjects social nonintegrated before 1989, which preserve a neutral memory about the pre-revolutionary period and assumes today a strategies of social integration in a totally different social reality). The applied psychological instruments assess the following dimensions: independence-interdependence (Singelis); self-esteem (Rosenberg); locus of control (Rotter); self-determination (Sheldon, Ryan, Reis); and the values matrix provided by Schwartz Value Inventory, combining a quantitative methodology (trough the above instruments) with a qualitative one (oral history interviews). Our study is focused on the two concurrent hypotheses: the attitudinal changing hypothesis (the change of fundamental social attitudes) and the  la longue dur¨¦e¡± hypothesis (the persistence of fundamental social attitudes), examining the practical consequences of confirming  la longue dur¨¦e¡± hypothesis. At the same time, we have briefly configured the identitary portrait of one of the most traumatic generation for the communist period (¡®decre eii¡¯, ¡®the children of the Decree¡¯ 770/1967 ¨C the Ceausescu¡¯s decree for interdiction abortion), underlining the presence of a transgenerational axiological and attitudinal patterns, characterized by low level of social commitment and assistential values.
