This title was first published in 2001: Featuring original research
concerning young African-Caribbeans in Birmingham, this book
addresses complex issues of urban violence and insecurity, racism
and discrimination, alienation, resistance and social networks.
Employing the methodology of sociological intervention developed by
Alain Touraine, the book explores the experiences of a group of
young people who are simultaneously presumed to be victims and
perpetrators of violence. It examines their relationship to this
violence, its meanings for and effects upon them, how they
constitute themselves as social actors and subjects, and their
capacity for action. The book also addresses the fact that ethnic
monitoring and multicultural policies place the question of
ethnicity on the British social and political agenda alongside
issues of racism and discrimination. Exploring both the perceived
and personally experienced position of young people within this
context, it sheds important new light upon processes of group
identification and action.
