Summary/Abstract: The study “Christian (Re)Initiation under the postmodern deconstructivist erosion” aims at delineating a realistic depiction of the multiple difficulties encountered by the initiative of re-suggesting a formative itinerary to the young people of the postmodern destructuring society. The first subtitle “Postmodern deconstructivist mutation: “the return of the apostolic times( neopaganism and ethical politheism)”identifies a general contextual challenge characterising the environment of young people today; the second subtitle , “ The appetite for a Christian re-initiation of the young people of the perpetual adolescence” underlines the fact that a series of contemporary realities demotivate the young people in the attempt to reapproach Christian values; the subtitle “Precarity as accepted definition of the real.The universal projectuality deficit” insists on the young people’s defective perception of the future, and in the end are enumerated a few concrete principles of pastoral and missionary action and position concerning the stimulation of young people towards accepting the pathway of reinitiation in the values of faith.
