ABSTRACT
We can attempt to create a long-term line of development concerning the experiences and meanings of education from the perspectives of cohort and life-course. First, life-stories are grouped into types from the point of view of life-course. Then, on the basis of these types, we form educational generations based on the experiences of people: these generations are exemplified as case studies in the framework of social development. Finally, on the basis of the development lines in our data, we attempt to create some preliminary theoretical interpretations.
