Abstract

The affiliation to a certain social class contributes to the substantiation and then to the individual’s continuation of a certain social “profile” which will definitively put a mark on his social evolution. Elements such as: life expectation, life style, the attitude towards work or even subjective elements such as the perception about happiness are strongly conditioned by the individual’s social position.
