Answer: d. Young people today define adulthood in terms of abstract traits like self-reliance and happiness.

Explanation:

Furstenberg's work has focused on social change, the transition to adulthood, divorce, and intergenerational relationships. He explains that in the present, young people have a definition of adulthood that is more extensive than in the past. Instead of the achievement of distinct goals, such as the homeownership of a house, young people today define adulthood in terms of abstract traits such as self-reliance and happiness.

Social Darwinism really ought to be called "Spencerism," after Herbert Spencer, who began such thoughts.  Spencer and Charles Darwin were rivals, not allies. The term "survival of the fittest" is actually a Spencer term, which he applied to human beings.  (Darwin used the term "natural selection" in reference to biological species.)  The ideas of what came to be known as "Social Darwinism" is that some people are just better and more fit to succeed than other, so they ought to succeed and rule over the less-talented members of the human species (like poor people).  Industry titans (sometimes referred to as "robber barons") used the ideas of Social Darwinism to justify their dominating ways over common laborers.
