Description

Explore the complex relationship between modern politics and young people in Making-Up People: Youth, Truth and Politics. Published by Routledge, this book by Judith Bessant challenges long-standing myths regarding the political involvement of children and youth. Bessant addresses the significant gap between how young people are discussed in political discourse and their actual history of political activity. By using a relational historical sociology approach, the text traces how social scientists, writers, and policymakers have shaped our understanding of youth since the nineteenth century. This work examines how specific historical dynamics and social imaginaries have allowed different versions of young people to be constructed and understood. It provides a deep look into the political interests that influence how society views the next generation. This book is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and political science who want to understand the social construction of youth in a modern political context.
