Youth in Revolt : Reclaiming a Democratic Future Paperback / softback
by Henry A. Giroux
Part of the Critical Interventions series
Paperback / softback
Description
Recently, American youth have demonstrated en masse about a variety of issues ranging from economic injustice and massive inequality to drastic cuts in education and public services.
Youth in Revolt chronicles the escalating backlash against dissent and peaceful protest while exposing a lack of governmental concern for society's most vulnerable populations.
Henry Giroux carefully documents a wide range of phenomena, from pervasive violent imagery in our popular culture to educational racism, censorship, and the growing economic inequality we face.
He challenges the reader to consider the hope for democratic renewal embodied by Occupy Wall Street and other emerging movements.
Encouraging a capacity for critical thought, compassion, and informed judgment, Giroux's analysis allows us to rethink the very nature of what democracy means and what it might look like in the United States and beyond.
