Abstract

This study presents the contemporary Islamic resurgence movement among young people in Bandung Indonesia, focusing on its emergence, development and routinisation. It traces various factors and conditions that contributed to the emergence of the movement. It also tries to explain how and why young people (students in particular) turn to Islam, and how the movement is organised and developed among students. Finally, it examines internal changes among various Islamic groups as responses to social, political and cultural changes.

Abstract

"As Wesley C. Hogan sees it, the future of democracy belongs to young people. While today's generation of leaders confronts a daunting array of existential challenges, increasingly it is young people in the United States and around the world who are finding new ways of belonging, collaboration, and survival. That reality forms the backbone of this book, as Hogan documents and assesses young people's interventions in the American fight for democracy and its ideals. Beginning with reflections on the inspiring example of Ella Baker and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee in the 1960s, Hogan profiles youth-led organizations and their recent work. Examples include Southerners on New Ground (SONG) in the NAFTA era; Oakland's Ella Baker Center and its fight against the school-to-prison pipeline; the Dreamers who are fighting for immigration reform; the Movement for Black Lives that is demanding a reinvestment in youth of color and an end to police violence against people of color; and the International Indigenous Youth Council, water protectors at Standing Rock who fought to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline and protect sovereign control of Indigenous lands. As Hogan reveals, the legacy of Ella Baker and the civil rights movement has often been carried forward by young people at the margins of power and wealth in U.S. society. This book foregrounds their voices and gathers their inventions--not in a comprehensive survey, but as an activist mix tape--with lively, fresh perspectives on the promise of twenty-first-century U.S. democracy"--

Abstract

"Growing Up America brings together new scholarship that considers the role of children and teenagers in shaping American political life during the decades following the Second World War. Growing Up America places young people-and their representations-at the center of key political trends, illuminating the dynamic and complex roles played by youth in the midcentury rights revolutions, in constructing and challenging cultural norms, and in navigating the vicissitudes of American foreign policy and diplomatic relations. The authors featured here reveal how young people have served as both political actors and subjects from the early Cold War through the late twentieth-century Age of Fracture. At the same time, Growing Up America contends that the politics of childhood and youth extends far beyond organized activism and the ballot box. By unveiling how science fairs, breakfast nooks, Boy Scout meetings, home economics classrooms, and correspondence functioned as political spaces, this anthology encourages a reassessment of the scope and nature of modern politics itself"--

Abstract

Le juvénilisme fut avec le féminisme un facteur important du changement social au XXe siècle. Il a permis à la jeunesse, catégorie sociale émergente dans le cadre des sociétés industrielles naissantes, d’affirmer sa spécificité et de trouver sa place. Comme tout mouvement social, le juvénilisme a présenté des visages différents selon les sociétés et selon les moments. Le présent ouvrage retrace son histoire en Allemagne, entre le début du XXe siècle et la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, et montre que les avatars du mouvement, depuis ses débuts néoromantiques, jusqu’à la débâcle de 1945, reflètent les bouleversements qui ont secoué l’Allemagne durant ce demi-siècle et changé progressivement les rapports entre la société et la jeunesse. Considérée par certains comme un possible recours contre la catastrophe qui menaçait l’Allemagne à la fin des années 1920, la jeune génération porteuse du message juvéniliste ne sut pas répondre à cette attente et eut aussi, par son utopisme, sa part de responsabilité dans l’arrivée au pouvoir du national-socialisme et dans le désastre final.
