Bringing together essays, research studies and other material written over the past two decades, this book traces through them a history of political and intellectual debates on the left and in cultural studies, around central issues of education, labour and the youth question. An argument is made for linking the cultural, structural and autobiographical dimensions of the youth question in order to engage educationally with the burden of representation which young people are made to carry via race, class and sexuality in the postmodern world. The book includes three major unpublished pieces and an introduction which discusses the nature of the collection, and sets it in both a personal and political context.

Industry Reviews

'The greatest strength of Cohen's book is its ability to combine theory and practice. In fact, his work is an embodiment of this process, mixing 'street-life' and academia and, as such, is extremely important and valuable. The book clearly 're-thinks the youth question' in a number of very important and novel ways...is an extremely important contribution to the debates on the question of youth and is highly recommended for courses on youth and cultural studies.' - Journal of Youth Studies
