Abstract

The process of this research highlights a social crisis in which the present communities that are in relation to the phenomenon so called violence and the desire of destruction, in which has been awakened rapidly in humans, the manifestation of a dehumanizing phenomenon shelters the new societies and it’s internalized in youths with greater acceptance. That is why this research becomes so important, insofar as that is to recognize the impact that these acts of violence or destruction begin to determine this aspect in a positive or negative way the sense of the subject’s life in particular. From this social problem we will try to recognize the notion of destruction and its relation to the meaning of life today, that will be given in the speech of three young men from the city of Pereira who have broken the law once and that have gone though processes of institutionalizing an act that is reflected from the theoretical contributions of Erich Fromm who proposed from the phenomenon of destruction, the “syndrome of decay” and from Victor Frankl the meaning of life, associated with the sense of love and suffering. This research is part of a qualitative paradigm, which seeks to understand and interpret the phenomenon in its real environment, which will lead to a more extent and accurate approach to the problem, thus facilitating the construction of a scientific knowledge.
