What is it about?

This paper was written in response to two patterns I observed in youth studies and youth citizenship research: 1. The tendency to fall back into liear and normative frameworks of youth transitions and citizenship 2. The tendency to work in silos in youth studies. This paper therefore sought to join up thinking across these subfields of youth studies and set an agenda for new ways of researching and analysing youth.

Why is it important?

The paper is an important one as it sets an agenda for alternative ways of viewing and researching young people and tried to begin a conversation in this.

Perspectives

I really appreciated some feedback on this paper from colleagues at Youth Studies TASA (The Australian Sociological Association) in Cairns 2015.
