| Abstract | "This is a book about a sector that is not recognized as such, organizations that don't like being institutionalized, forms of education that exist outside the mainstream curriculum, types of aesthetic expression that are often unrecognized, visions of civic participation that run against the grain, and opportunities for socially marginalized young people who are frequently denied them. And yet, it is also a book about established, fairly well resourced projects and activities that are often evaluated and monitored by local authorities at city level or even the nation state; the projects often fit within a complex network of routes for young people across learning institutions in the city, and are frequently the result of high-profile, highly public initiatives, branding, and advocacy"-- Provided by publisher. |
