However, the intergenerational gap has been diminishing over time (Bolin and Skogerbø, 2013), and the digital era is contributing to bridge the generational divide. Antonija Čuvalo and Zrinjka Peruško (2017) discern media repertoires shared among the youngest (the so-called digital generation or digital natives), and the older generation of digital immigrants. In this sense, there is a need to work closely on life course perspectives as a possible explanation of the weakening or perpetuating of the generational gap (Amaral and Daniel, 2018). The context of digital literacy has reinforced activities by civil society and schools, and can shed some light on the discussion of this need (Brites, 2017). Furthermore, a generational perspective in family and school environments can empower this discussion. In this special issue, we aim to discuss some of the above-mentioned considerations. We ponder the view that that the field is currently driven by three trends and also by some persistent gaps that need to be addressed. 1-9 . The first trend is related to isolations and media generations. The concept of (20) . 10 ‘generation’ seems promising for an explanation of economic, social, political and cultural . changes. Although original Karl Mannheim’s social theory of generations from the late 2019 1920s was concerned with the political dimension as the most relevant for explaining different generational identities, today’s media affordances, forms and uses could be more important even for the way young people relate to politics (Corsten, 1999; Edmunds and Turner, 2005). MEDIA STUDIES STUDIES MEDIA The rapid development and spread of media and communication technologies that have been occurring since the 1980s – and especially from the first decade of 21st century due to the rise of social media - have aroused interest for generational differences in media use among media and communication scholars. The focus has been on the role of youth MEDIJSKE STUDIJE STUDIJE MEDIJSKE 2 in domestication, shaping and construction of digital media and on the effects of the ‘new media’ on the young people’s culture(s) and minds (Palfrey and Gasser, 2008; Prensky, 2001; Tapscott, 1998). The main narrative has referred to the unique ‘global digital generation’ (Aroldi and Colombo, 2013; Edmunds and Turner, 2005) born with the proliferation of the Internet and mobile media. Piermarco Aroldi and Fausto Colombo (2013, see also Bennet et al., 2008) criticize monolithic, historically and geographically decontextualized dominant narrative, pointing to the complexities of the definition of generations and the role of “inter-generational interaction in shaping of collective identities” (2013: 175). The dominant narrative on ’digital generation’” (Internet generation, digital natives, Generation Y, Millennials) usually deals with the pure fact that a certain cohort was born together with the rise of digital and mobile media as a sufficient condition for disruptive, unique and unambiguous generational effects of these technologies B( olton et al., 2013). Such a linear narrative often neglects (i) diverse geographies with their histories, different media landscapes and the way in which these differences constitute specific cultural identities (Edmunds and Turner, 2005); (ii) different socio-economic positions; (iii) intergenerational continuities and practices (of previous generations) which make possible and are integrated in new ones; (iv) generation and also intergenerational dynamics as UVODNA BILJEšKA EDITORS’ NOTE an active force in shaping media and communication technologies. Furthermore, Göran Bolin and Oscar Westlund (2009) point out that technology

I didn't know what God would bring into my life as I started as presi- This Is the dent of the CCCU, but I knew I was called. I walked to work on 8th Street, just seven blocks from the U.S. Capitol, to meet my expectant colleagues. Greetings abounded as I entered, and I knew that in their minds, they wondered, “What will she be like? What Moment will the next year look like?” It feels like yesterday – yet now I’m starting my fourth year. You’ve experienced the same phenomenon – time speeding by. That first year, I often used the phrase, “Let's see what God does in one, three, five, seven, 10 years." The first year is always one of listening, observing, and analyzing; the following years involved acting on what I had heard and seen. The CCCU has refreshed its membership criteria, and we have revitalized our member services. At the last New Presidents Institute this past July, a participant said what they appreciated about the CCCU’s programs and services is that they are not merely transactional – they aim to be transformational, with Christ at the core.
