The withdrawal of young Americans from electoral politics has been
as startling as it has been mystifying. Possible explanations for
this phenomenon have focused on increased levels of cynicism and
distrust among young voters, the behavior of candidates and
campaign consultants, and the importance of institutional barriers
to voting. Then came the 2004 election, when nearly 47 percent of
eligible 18-to-24-year-olds turned out to vote_an 11 percent
increase over 2000 levels. In the wake of this surprising
development, Fountain of Youth looks at the tactics and strategies
for youth mobilization_from improved civic education to recasting
the theme of 'Rock the Vote' to reinvigorating political parties.
Indeed, the book includes new and innovative research on the role
of local political parties in registering and getting young voters
to the polls. This volume will be of interest to scholars,
teachers, practitioners, pundits-in short, anyone concerned about
the future of our democracy.
