%X a critical re-reading of the production of funcionalist sociology based upon youth, reveals conceptions founded on the idea of £¿normality£¿, understood as the calm adjustment between the youthful condition and the social structure. £¿abnormality£¿ is interpreted as £¿dysfunctional£¿, originated from the pernicious influence of £¿occult tradition£¿ on youth: bohemian, delinquency and radicalism. in the 60£¿s this interpretation is re-considered, and has a much more generous vision on the youthful revolts which allows to see this as a possibility of reformation and revolution of the societies in crisis. as the 70£¿s, an important tendency was to conceive youth more as a £¿life style£¿ than a stage of the course of life, and the behaviors in conflict with the hegemonic social values, more like £¿youthful cultures£¿ than revolts. apparently, the explanatory classic models of the revolt of youth would have been surpassed. nevertheless, diverse movements carried out by young people recently seem to demand that these models have supposedly been surpassed.
