"Idealism is the last luxury that only belongs to the youth," said Tan Malaka. The problem is each era has its own challenges that demand different responses. In line with that, the youth idealism must also be put in the context of challenges in its era.

The capability to respond to the challenges of an era as a collective work — not simply individual achievements — gives birth to a transformation generation.  The meaning of a generation in sociology does not merely represent collectivity on the basis of age equality, but also on the common experience, vision and the call of historicity that forms the power of change.
