THE PROBLEMATIC OF THE FAMILIAL LINK BETWEEN TRADITION AND ASSUMPTION

Abstract

     The study aims to understand the changes in strategies that families employ to weave their network of relationships with others within what is known as the familial link.  The objective is to identify the changes that have occurred in Algerian families from the traditional stage to the emergence of modern communication means, and to attempt to study and analyze those transformations that have affected Algerian families.  The study relies on a descriptive analytical approach, in addition to presenting some previous studies related to the topic and commenting on them. Subsequently, the study moves from traditional Algerian families to modern ones, ending with families in the age of media and communication technologies.
