All over the world, there is growing concern about the
ramifications of globalization, late-modernity and general global
social and economic restructuring on the lives and futures of young
people. Bringing together a wide body of research to reflect on
youth responses to social change in Africa, this volume shows that
while young people in the region face extraordinary social
challenges in their everyday lives, they also continue to devise
unique ways to reinvent their difficult circumstances and prosper
in the midst of seismic global and local social changes.
Contributors from Africa and around the world cover a wide range of
topics on African youth cultures, exploring the lives of young
people not necessarily as victims, but as active social players in
the face of a shifting, late-modernist civilization. With empirical
cases and varied theoretical approaches, the book offers a timely
scholarly contribution to debates around globalization and its
implications and impacts for Africa's youth.
