Alexandra Maryanski, "Émile Durkheim and the Birth of the Gods: Clans, Incest, Totems, Phratries, Hordes, Mana, Taboos, Corroborees, Sodalitie"
English | ISBN: 1138587362 | 2018 | 342 pages | EPUB | 1122 KB
The Birth of the Gods is dedicated to Durkheim's effort to understand the basis of social integration. Unlike most social scientists, then and now, Durkheim concluded that humans are naturally more individualistic than collectivistic, that the primal social unit for humans is the macro-level unit ('the horde'), rather than the family, and that social cohesion is easily disrupted by human self-interest. Hence, for Durkheim, one of the "gravest" problems facing sociology is how to mold these human proclivities to serve the collective good. The analysis of elementary religions, Durkheim believed, would allow social scientists to see the fundamental basis of solidarity in human societies, built around collective representations, totems marking sacred forces, and emotion-arousing rituals directed at these totems.

Catherine Driscoll, "Youth, Technology, Governance, Experience "
English | ISBN: 0367486989 | 2020 | 198 pages | EPUB | 1165 KB
How do adults understand youth? How do their conceptions inform interventions into young lives or involve young people's experiences?

Aurora Lopez-Fogues, "Youth, Gender and the Capabilities Approach to Development: Rethinking Opportunities and Agency from a Human Development"
English | ISBN: 0367263092 | 2019 | 194 pages | EPUB | 729 KB
Youth, Gender and the Capabilities Approach to Development investigates to what extent young people have access to fair opportunities, the factors influencing their aspirations, and how able they are to pursue these aspirations and to carry out their life plans. The book positions itself in the intersection between capabilities, youth and gender, in recognition of the fact that without gender equality, capabilities cannot be universal and development strategies are likely to fail to achieve their full objectives.

Tim Goddard, "Youth, Community and the Struggle for Social Justice "
English | ISBN: 0367228130 | 2021 | 184 pages | EPUB | 407 KB
Activists, policymakers, and scholars in the US have called for policy reform and evidence-based efforts to decrease the number of people in jail and prison, improve hostile police-community relations, and rollback the "tough on crime" movement. Given that poor people, particularly poor people of color, make up the majority of those under carceral control in Western, industrial countries, can technical solutions, gradual reforms, and individual-level programming genuinely change the deeply entrenched carceral state that has been expanding in the US for over 40 years?

Graham Bright, "Youth Work: Histories, Policy and Contexts"
English | ISBN: 1137434392 | 2015 | 280 pages | EPUB | 501 KB
Youth work is a means of promoting learning, equality and inclusion with young people. It is an incredibly rewarding profession; however, state regulation means that youth work students and practitioners must continuously wrestle with the challenges of contemporary practice in environments that are complex and changing.

Margaretha Järvinen, "Youth Drinking Cultures: European Experiences"
English | ISBN: 1138273503 | 2016 | 200 pages | EPUB | 1431 KB
How can 'binge drinking' be explained and understood? Is alcohol consumption related to the particular cultural characteristics of some European countries? Should heavy drinking cultures be seen as a mainstream youth phenomenon or as marginal - and is this different in different countries? A team of leading researchers addresses these questions and more in their analysis of the alcohol consumption patterns of European young people. Alcohol consumption is an important marker of transition from childhood to early adulthood, yet the timing, intensity and purpose of adolescent drinking varies dramatically between countries. The contributors provide cross-national comparisons to investigate how drinking behaviour varies, examining factors such as gender, societal context and family socio-economic backgrounds. Youth Drinking Cultures offers a comprehensive set of perspectives on adolescent drinking in Europe. In linking issues around social identity and the life-course with a highly topical area of media and policy concern, the book will be of great value to sociology and social policy scholars, especially youth researchers, and also to professionals working with young people.

Bjørn Schiermer, "Youth Collectivities "
English | ISBN: 0367404036 | 2021 | 246 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This volume seeks to address what its contributors take to be an important lacuna in youth cultural research: a lack of interest in the phenomenon of collectivity and collective aspects of youth culture.
