Cool Places - Geographies of Youth Cultures (Paperback)

Cool Places draws on examples from Europe, UK, Scandinavia, US, Australia, Canada and New Zealand to introduce the ideas of culture and space - identity politics, gender, race, class, disability, sexuality, performativity, power, agency - through a context directly relevant to lived experience: youth cultures. Divided into four sections covering representation, scale, resistance and place (home, school, street, shop, work, club), the authors introduce theoretical concepts and problematics of the geographies of youth, around engaging themes and first-person vignettes.
This edited collection draws together the latest thinking within social, cultural and feminist studies to focus upon the complexities of youth cultures and their spatial representations and interactions.
