Whilst it does not overlook individual agency, the rich descriptions from young people‘s oral histories show us that the contexts in which agency was exercised, was often considerably constrained by significant structural forces. The sociological concept of ‘situated choice‘, which is used to explain and understand how people make choices within their individual context, is used throughout the book as we witness young people wrestling to escape intergenerational disadvantage..The book will be of interest to scholars and students of Social Work, Social Policy, Youth Studies, Sociology and He | | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | | 关键词 | childhood; drugs; alcohol; young people; youth culture; community; family; childhood trauma; self-injury; mas | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-33675-6 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-81570-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-33675-6 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and the Author(s) 2016 |
