The contemporary societies present paradox and new forms of links and of how to construct itself in a community. An oscillation between fusion and fear of contact, characteristic of the way of the contemporary link, translates a displacement of the body's spirit. It is intended, here, through the discussion of contemporary models and types of psychological aspiration, affectionate and moral, present in the professional associations, in the brotherhood and youth movements - and in particular by the ways of studying the German youth movements post 1914 war - to consider the functional mechanisms of contemporary society and some of its phenomenons, such as the youth cult, the brotherhood spirit and the sectarian movements.
