GRAJALES, Diego Agudelo  and  RAMIREZ LOPEZ, Natalia María. Family Today: A Review through Digital Image. Franciscanum [online]. 2023, vol.65, n.180, pp.10-10.  Epub Feb 12, 2024. ISSN 0120-1468.  https://doi.org/10.21500/01201468.6211.

The purpose of this article is to explain how the crisis of the family institution implies a crisis in the human subject, which from its own autonomy and freedom proposes as life project to form a family. The analysis model is centered on this configuration of the new forms of family, mediated by the influence of technologies, especially digital photographs, or selfies, as forms of daily expression where the story or narrative is no longer present; it is replaced by image. The research methodology is phenomenological hermeneutics, mediated by a technological device that is as well a generator of meaning: the selfie as an entire fabric of humanity that is present in both spaces of reality and virtuality. The task from education is to be proactive with a sense of hope, building new meanings with young people so that these new forms of family become spaces of love for them.

Keywords : Family; Youth; Social change; Photography; Social media; Humanities.
