Youth, Globalization, and Society in Africa and Its Diaspora (Hardcover, Unabridged edition)

This edited collection provides a window into Africa's diversity. A wide-ranging body of authors offers a valuable glimpse into the challenges and opportunities presented by globalization to the youth in Africa and its diaspora, while issuing a stern call for action to local governments to act now and tap into the energy of Africa's burgeoning youth population. In doing so, the authors expand extant literature on the continent's coping with globalization in the context of young people in various African nations. Featured in the collection are views on education, language, agriculture, sport and technology, deeply interwoven into the schooling, behavior, and health of youth. Specifically, these practices are found in both formal and non-formal education, agricultural production, and food nutrition, computer technology, and sport's amelioration of health issues, throughout Africa.
