Stuart C. Aitken

The Ethnopoetics of Space and Transformation (eBook, PDF)

Young People's Engagement, Activism and Aesthetics

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Aitken examines key life-changing events to look at the interconnections between space, politics, change and emotions. Analyzing the intricate spatial complexities of these events, he explores the emotions that undergird the ways change takes place, and the perplexing spatial politics that almost always accompany transformations. Aitken positions young people as effective agents of change without romanticizing their political involvement as fantasy and unrealistic dreaming. Going further, he suggests that it is the emotional palpability of youth engagement and activism that makes it so potent and productive.
