| contents | Generational “we-sense”, “they-sense” and narrative: An epistemological approach to media and social change Göran Bolin Sociología cross cultural analysis Generation identity social change epistemology social conscience of historical development A classic epistemological problem in the social sciences is how to analyse and understand social change. In media and communication studies, for example, the concept of mediatisation has sparked off such a debate, since one of the main criticisms against the approach is that researchers rather take change for granted without being able to empirically establish if and how change has occurred. In this article is suggested a model for analysing social change through an analysis of how generational identity as “we-sense” is produced in narratives about media use. The empirical basis for the discussion is picked from a recently finished project on media generations in Sweden and Estonia, building on foremost qualitative material. The article concludes with accounting for the merits of using a generational perspective for analysing social change. 2019 artículo científico 1139-5737 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=297165961002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2971/297165961002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2971/297165961002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2971/297165961002/297165961002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2971/297165961002/movil https://doi.org/10.5944/empiria.42.2019.23249 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2971 EMPIRIA.
