Dynamite in its implications." - Laura Nader, Professor of Anthropology, UC Berkeley "Sukarieh and Tannock have written a groundbreaking book that will help to redefine the field of youth studies by providing a much-needed political-economy analysis of youth. Their analysis positions young peopleindeed the current concept of youthwithin the neoliberal context of social control and exploitation, thereby challenging youth researchers to re-evaluate their excessively positive representations of the youth period." - James Ct, Professor of Sociology, The University of Western Ontario "Youth Rising? begins from the position that a critical engagement with the concept of youth is crucial in todays political landscape... Ultimately, the fetishization of youth is rejected for the argument that social transformation cannot emerge from any single group, abstracted from the broader racialized, gendered, and classed relations of society." Sara Carpenter, Adult Education Quarterly
