Sociological Studies of Children and Youth (a volume by Emerald Publishing) announces, "Youth Engagement: The Civic-Political Lives of Children and Youth." Guest editors ... invite the submission of completed papers focused on children and youth's civic and political engagement, broadly conceived.
Possible questions might be: How are youth participating in civic and political socialization projects? How do young people and the adults who work with them define terms like citizenship, democracy and community? How do youth react to adults? ...what it means to be a "citizen" or "community member"? What institutions and structures facilitate or hinder participation and engagement? How do youth respond and relate to institutions and organizations designed to encourage their engagement? How do dynamics of race, class, gender, sexuality and ability shape young people's approaches to engagement?
deadline is Jan 20....less than 30 pages to Sandi Nenga at nengas@southwestern.edu Contributions will be peer-reviewed. Publication date is spring 2013.
