Where young people grow up makes a decisive difference to their
life chances. Drawing on case studies from ten European cities,
this book looks at how the local environment and the services
available for young people affect their socialization. What comes
to the fore are the local matters. On the one hand, there are
experiences of discrimination and marginalization due to distance
and isolation, decay and neglect but also related to piecemeal and
top-down approaches to youth and social services. On the other, we
find signs of positive transformation and drivers of social
innovation: community building projects, the revitalization of
abandoned places, appreciative approaches to servicing and a whole
array of tactics that young people deploy to overcome their daily
struggles.
