Drawing on interdisciplinary perspectives, Youth, Place and
Theories of Belonging showcases cutting-edge empirical research on
young people's lifeworlds. The scholars demonstrate that belonging
is personal, infused with individual and collective histories as
well as interwoven with conceptions of place. In studying how young
people adapt to social change the research highlights the plurality
of belonging, as well as its temporal and fleeting nature. In the
field of youth studies, we have seen a recent emphasis on studying
the ways youth live out everyday multiculturalisms in an
increasingly globalised world. How young people negotiate belonging
in everyday life and how they come to understand their positions in
fragmented societies remain emerging areas of scholarship. Composed
of twelve chapters, the collection references key sites and
institutions in young people's lives such as schools,
community/cultural centres, neighbourhoods and spaces of
consumption. Drawing from diverse areas such as the rural, the
urban as well as displacements and mobilities, this international
collection enhances our understanding of the theories employed in
the study of youth identity practices. Written in a direct and
clear style, this collection of essays will be of interest to
researchers working in geography, theories of affect, gender,
mobility, performativities, and theories of space/place.
Investigating how young people come to belong can open up new
spaces and provide critical insights into young people's
identities.
