In searching for answers as to why young people differ vastly from
their parents and grandparents when it comes to turning out the
vote, A New Engagement challenges the conventional wisdom that
today's youth is plagued by a severe case of political apathy. In
order to understand the current
nature of citizen engagement, it is critical to separate political
from civic engagement. Using the results from an original set of
surveys and the authors' own primary research, they conclude that
while older citizens participate by voting, young people engage by
volunteering and being active in
their communities.
