Youth Culture           
 The students of the four schools have taken part in the project with a research on youth culture.
 In their  research they took into consideration the development of themes connected to young people's life, in the period that goes from the 60s to the 90s (four decades).
They were asked to read  newspapers and books about those years, and to look for documents like photos and songs.
Then they prepared a questionnaire with questions on:
 
POLITICAL COMMITMENT
SPARE TIME
FAMILY
SCHOOL AND JOB
LOOK, FASHION AND CLOTHES
RELIGION
SPORT
MUSIC
MONEY
FEMINISM
DRUGS
SEX
 and  interviewed  people (about four hundred), whose age goes from 18 to 55 years, friends, brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, parents..., who were teen agers in the four decades considered.
 The  aims were two:
- to give a general idea of young people's life in each decade;
- to describe the development of each theme in these forty years.
