Abstract. The article presents the results of the study, part of the research program under the project “Nowadays culture of poverty - dimensions and spread among young people”, within the SUMMIT project of Sofia University. The text discusses the main features of the culture of poverty presented in the scholarly tradition and in the current interpretation that examines the culture through cultural frameworks, repertoires and narratives. An analysis of the results of semi-
structured interviews conducted with young people aged 20-34 and of focus groups
with teachers is presented. The results show that most of the interviewees have a
vague vision and vague goals for the future, show the absence of autonomy and
initiative, reject the importance of effort in education and work, show low levels of
responsibility. The analysis of the results of the focus reveals early characteristics
reflecting beliefs, attitudes, characteristic of the culture of poverty, which in the
period of youth acquire stability.
