Youth, Risk, Routine (eBook, PDF)

A New Perspective on Risk-Taking in Young Lives

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Youth, Risk, Routine introduces a new approach to risk-taking activities as being an integral and routinised part of young people's everyday life. By applying social theories of practice, this insightful volume presents a framework for understanding the routinised dimensions of young people's engagement in risk-taking and how this is embedded in, intertwined with and held in place by other everyday practices.
