There is on-going debate in youth and community work regarding its
future. Driven by processes of neo-liberal governmentality, youth
work has been bent in new and uncomfortable directions. For many,
this threatens the very telos of praxis. However, despite this, a
passionate commitment to youth work's values and approaches
doggedly remains. This edited volume invites academics working in
different continents and contexts to move beyond a critique of
youth work's current state, towards imagining different
professional futures. Rooted in the profession's historic values,
and drawing on the distinct political and cultural environments
that have shaped youth work practice in different global locations,
the authors explore possible new routes and approaches for the
profession. These discussions are located geographically (in a
devolved United Kingdom, Europe, United States, Australasia, and
the Developing/Majority world) as well as across different sectors
and approaches (voluntary sector, faith sector, online, young
women's work). The result is a rich picture of global practice.
This provides both depth and perspective from which to gain new
insights regarding possibilities for future practices, which
imagine fairer and more participative societies.
