Roma Minority Youth Across Cultural Contexts

Taking a Positive Approach to Research, Policy, and Practice

Herausgeber: Dimitrova, Radosveta; Ferrer Wreder, Laura; Sam, David Lackland

Beschreibung

This book explores Positive Youth Development (PYD) in Roma ethnic minority youth. Standing apart from current volumes, this book focuses on the Roma ethnic minority -- one of the most marginalized and oppressed minority groups in Europe -- and on strengths and resources for optimal well-being in the community. The international and multidisciplinary contributors to this book address the complexities of Roma life in a variety of cultural settings, exploring how key developmental processes and person-context interactions can contribute to optimal and successful adaptation.
