Description: Further DetailsTitle: Citizens in the PresentCondition: NewDescription: Although media coverage often portrays young people in urban areas as politically apathetic or disruptive, this book provides an antidote to such views through narratives of dedicated youth civic engagement and leadership in Chicago, Mexico City, and Rio de Janeiro. This innovative comparative study provides nuanced accounts of the personal experiences of young people who care deeply about their communities and are actively engaged in a variety of public issues. Drawing from extensive interviews and personal narratives from the young activists themselves, Citizens in the Present presents a vibrant portrait of a new, politically involved generation.Author: Irene Rizzini, Maria de los Angeles Torres, Norma Del RioCountry/Region of Manufacture: USEAN: 9780252079207Format: PaperbackGenre: Society & CultureISBN: 9780252079207ISBN-10: 0252079205Item Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 313gItem Width: 20mmLanguage: EnglishPublisher: University of Illinois PressRelease Date: 07/23/2013Subtitle: Youth Civic Engagement in the AmericasTopic: Law & Politics, Social SciencesRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
