Ageing and Youth Cultures
«
"This book brings forth some new avenues for studying youth cultures (and subcultures) within emerging fields such as Postyouth Studies, Dance Studies, and other original intersections. Graduate students studying popular music, cultural studies, sociology, and youth studies will appreciate its questionings and conceptualisation about the practices and the (sometimes unusual) representations of age and ageing persons, mostly from the ‘‘X’’ Generation, in various contexts. - International Journal of Ageing and Later Life - Yves Laberge
The book sets the tone for an emerging social system, distinctive in its acceptance and re-accommodating of age within youth culture, and provides a framework for further research - Anthropological Notebooks - David Lorbiecke, Tallinn University, Estonia
Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above. - CHOICE - D.S. Carr, Rutgers University
Mentioned - Anthropological Notebooks"
