Deploying a spatial approach towards children¿s everyday life in interwar Hong Kong, this book considers the context-specific development of five transnational movements: the garden city movement; imperial hygiene movement; nationalist sentiments; the Young Women's Christian Association; and the Girl Guide. Locating these transnational cultural movements in four layers of context, from the most immediate to the most global, including the context of Hong Kong, Republican China, the British empire, and global influences, this book shows Hong Kong as a distinctive colonial domain where the imperatives around race, gender and class produced new products of empire where the child, the garden, the school and sport turned out to be the main dynamics in play in the interwar period.

This collection of talks was initially delivered as a series of lectures to teachers at Harvard University in 1896. In this book, William James, a prominent American philosopher and psychologist, addresses the relationship between psychology and education. He discusses the practical implications of psychological principles for teaching and learning. James explores various aspects of education, including the development of the individual, the role of habit, and the importance of cultivating a well-rounded character. One of the central themes is the idea that education should go beyond the mere acquisition of knowledge and should also focus on the development of moral character and the cultivation of a sense of purpose in life. James emphasizes the role of personal ideals and values in shaping the educational process. Overall, "Talks to Teachers on Psychology and to Students on Some of Life's Ideals" is a thought-provoking work that delves into the intersection of psychology and education, offering insights into the broader aspects of life that education should aim to address.
Rap Music and the Youth in Malawi is one of the first book-length studies of Malawian hip hop. It studies the language and content of contemporary Malawian hip hop as a window onto the country's youth culture as Malawian young people negotiate what scholar Alcinda Honwana calls 'waithood,' or the condition, common among Malawian youth, of lacking opportunities to advance from a situation of dependence and being stuck in a state of relative childhood. The book argues that rap music made by Malawian youth music speaks of - and represents, through its very agency - their need to break out of this stagnant state. After situating Malawian hip hop with respect to both other musical genres in the country and to the nation's language in culture, Rap Music and the Youth in Malawi shows how Malawian youth use rap music to create a sense of community, which then becomes a foothold from which they can do activities that get them out of waithood and into the adult world, such as getting involved in the music industry, realizing electoral power, or participating in activism about issues such as violence against people with albinism and the COVID-19 pandemic. Hip hop has been a crucial tool for Malawian youth to build the skills, identity, and agency necessary to exercise their economic, cultural, and civic independence.

This is not a sob story. It's a story about the difficulties of growing into manhood and my own particular struggle with disabling anxiety that came along with it, and how I managed to find my way. That was more than fifty years ago. American life was more comfortable and comprehensible than it is now as we face the discords of what I call the long emergency. I still had a hard time. I observe that boys today are up against a whole lot more in their quest to become fully functional adult men.
"From NYU professor of developmental psychology Niobe Way, an in-depth exploration about what boys and young men teach us about themselves, us, and the toxic culture we have created, one in which we value money over people, toys over human connection, and academic achievement over kindness. Based on her longitudinal and mixed-method research over thirty-five years, Rebels with a Cause is a true call to action to change the culture so that we stop the vicious cycle of violence and blame. Dr. Niobe Way has spent her career researching social and emotional development and finds that boys and young men desperately want and need the same thing as everyone else: close friendships. Yet they and we grow up in a stereotyped "boy" culture, one that devalues and mocks those relationships, rather than recognizing that they're necessary for human survival. In Rebels with a Cause, Way takes her message one step beyond her previous book, Deep Secrets, which was the inspiration for an Oscar-nominated film Close, to reveal how these "rebels," as she calls the boys and young men in her research and in her classrooms, teach us about their and our crisis of connection, evidence of which is visible in our soaring rates of depression, anxiety, loneliness, suicide, and mass violence. They also teach us about the solutions to the crisis, which is to care, to listen with curiosity, and to take individual and collective responsibility for the damage we have done to them, to ourselves, and to the world around us. Way provides us not only with data-driven insight into the roots and consequences of this crisis of connection, but also offers us concrete and empirically tested strategies for creating a culture that better aligns with our human nature and our human needs. Her book reminds us that "it's not the rebels who cause the troubles of the world, it's the troubles that cause the rebels." The time to listen to and act on what young rebels have been telling us for almost a century is now"--
"A lifeline of hope for parents of teens who feel adrift on the real and raw parenting journey, presented with wisdom and faith-and a touch of candid humor-from seasoned educator, mother, and Today Parenting contributor Amy Betters-Midtvedt"--
This book explores the prevailing role of rites of passage, ritual, and ceremony in contemporary children's lives through the lens of modern-day incarnations of uniformed youth movements. It focuses on the socialising ritual and customary practices of present-day grass-roots Scout and Guide groups, asking how Britain's largest and best-known uniformed youth organisations employ ritualised activities to express their values to their young members through language and gesture, story and song, dress, and physical artifacts. The author shows that these practices exist against a backdrop of culturally-constructed beliefs about what constitutes the 'good child' and 'good childhood' in twenty-first century Britain, with in-movement practices intended to help children develop positively and prepare for social life. The book draws on case study accounts of group performances, incorporating the voices of children and adults reflecting on their practices and experiences.

Værsgo! Læseinspiration til børn og unge – og ikke mindst deres voksne og da også gamle – fra en af Danmarks mest garvede anmeldere:”Den første bog jeg tændte på, var Robin Hood. Min mor gav mig lov til at pjække fra skole, fordi jeg måtte læse bogen færdig. Siden er jeg blevet tændt af mange bøger. Det er ikke nødvendigvis de allerbedste. Men de har tændt mig. Sådan er det med bøger. Så her er min helt egen pjækkebogliste,” skriver Steffen Larsen i bogens forord.Undervejs møder læseren hundredvis af forfattere og tegnere med alle deres frit flyvende fantasier. Men Harry Potter eller Alice møde man ikke, ligesom brødrene Løvehjerte også rider udenom. Dem kender man sikkert i forvejen. Til gengæld er her 79 nedslag i historier for børn og unge (og alle andre) om skønhed, sorg og salighed. En redningskrans til tiden. Mens tid er. Et lærketræ. Et vibeskrig. En lille sang om frihed.

This book explores disrupted youth cohesion in France within the context of multiple ongoing global economic, migratory, social, political, and security-related crises. While these trends can be observed in numerous Western societies, France provides a unique case study of various anti-cosmopolitan and anti-Enlightenment movements shaping youth conditions and reconfiguring relationships between the individual, the group, and society. The authors undertook in-depth interviews with French young people between the ages of 18 to 30 years old to inquire into how they experience "e;vivre ensemble"e; (living together) in a time of rising economic inequalities and multicultural tensions. Through these findings, they invite decision-makers, politicians, educators, and parents to propose a renewed narrative of social cohesion for youth who are not disillusioned, but deeply on edge.
