The volume is organized in two parts. Following the Introduction,
six chapters make up Part One, 'Empirical Studies'. Two
quantitative analyses lead off: first an examination of residential
mobility, peer networks and life-course transitions; second, a look
at adolescents' participation in a particular social movement. Two
ethnographic studies follow - here the foci are 'Zero Tolerance'
school discipline policies, and female athletes' construction of
femininity. A comparative content analysis of teen magazine advice
columns, and a qualitative study of construction of 'adoptive
family' identities, round out Part One. Three chapters constitute
Part Two, 'Innovations in Theory and Research Methods'.The first
offers an analysis of two films that explore childrens' struggle
for agency and control. The next chapter develops a typology of
children's participation in social movements, employing fascinating
first-person narrative accounts. The final chapter demonstrates the
unique ability of group interviews to capture processes through
which adolescents accomplish group talk, develop shared
perspectives, and construct gender identities.
