- Looking across different historical and global contexts, Youth Rising offers a wide-ranging and in-depth theorisation of the role of economic and political forces in constructing the category of youth. Consisting of five chapters, each of which could stand alone as a journal article in its own right, the book critically interrogates: the expansion of youth as a social category and its deployment in the service of neoliberal agendas; the historical interconnectedness of youth and capitalism; generational analyses of unemployment; youth as a site for revolutionary politics; and the relationship between education, the extension of the youth phase and youth protest.
