MAKING YOUTH - MELANIE TEBBUTT KARTONIERT (TB)

This new study explores how British youth was made  and how it made itself  over the nineteenth
and twentieth centuries. Urbanisation and industrialisation brought challenges that altered how
young people were both perceived and understood. As adults found it difficult to comprehend the
rapidity of societal change  focus on the young intensified  and they became a symbol of
uncertainty about the future.Highlighting both change and striking continuity  Melanie Tebbutt
traces the origins and development of key themes and debates in the history of modern British
youth. Current issues such as the ageing of western societies  high levels of youth
unemployment and the potential for social and political unrest make this a timely study.
