Keywords:

What is happening with the adolescents, the paternal function and the new family configurations? These changes of the parents and familiar structures show a symbolic declination or is there more than a symbolic Law referent in the families
and social organizations? And, therefore, how these epocal changes of the family structure and the parent image and function affect the ideal conformation of the self? If the paternal function is a symbolic castration function, the question which arises is if the patriarchy decadency is similar to the decadency of this function. How can a symbolic decadency could be sustained today
and what would be the consequences? On the contrary, if what declines is the power concentration of the family pater and the man and it has been a greater democratization on the phallus possession, what kind of modifications bring these changes and how are these new forms? Are they changes on a imaginary level or they affect the symbolic order?
